Students Organize for Syria is the only national student-led movement that solely focuses its efforts on the crisis in Syria.

This organization is meant to help USF students and the community at large be more aware of the injustices taking place in Syria.

The situation in Syria has resulted in over 500,000 deaths and the displacement of 120 million Syrians from their homes. It has been classified by the United Nations as "the biggest humanitarian and refugee crisis of our time." We as students believe it is our civic duty to ensure that the ongoing crisis remains at the forefront of public discussion.

Established June of 2015
