This is a book preservation office
created in the Karma Displaced Centre in Ankawa. Displaced volunteers work tirelessly around
the clock to digitize some of the hundreds of ancient historical and religious
books saved by priests in the Nineveh Plains.
SHLAMA foundation's Mission
Founded by Michigan area activists, the Shlama Foundation is a
non-governmental organization based in Iraq that strives to connect our
Chaldean Assyrian Syriac diaspora directly to the homeland. With the
recent exodus of our people from their towns and villages, your generosity will
help us address their urgent needs. Currently, our focus is to assist families
who have fled to the Kurdistan region in order to ease the hardships associated
with living on the streets and in tents. Our mission is to provide our people
with support until one day they are able to return to their homes in the
Nineveh Plains and continue living in their ancestral homeland.
Send much needed medicine to our people now
Nineveh Plains residents are in need of important medicine that truly keeps them alive. With no income to be able to buy medicine on their own, IDPs are relying on organizations forlife-sustaining medications.
Show our troops that we're thinking of them!
Help us send aid to our troops who bravely protect our villages. It costs at least $4,000to support each soldier's living expenses for a year, whether they are the Nineveh Plains
Protection Unit (NPU) , Dawekh Nawsha, the Popular Council, or any other unit.
If you have had a chance to visit any of our other projects, you will find that for any long-term survival, our families need to be able to return home. Our troops are currently growing in numbers and receiving high-level training. We are afraid for our brave men's safety. We honor them for their bravery. We support them in any way we can. If there is anything we can do to help, we would like to be able to.
Our troops live in small, humble dwellings where they train from early morning until after the sun has already gone down. Others are securing village borders, taking shifts, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, no matter the weather. We can support them with coats, boots, gloves, uniforms, utility vests and more, from anywhere in the world, with your donations.

- A copy of the receipt along with pictures from the day in an online album.
- The satisfaction of knowing that you are helping defend our land
