Between 2 August and 4 September 2025, the Swaida Field Operations program issued emergency cash grants to students who had become stranded outside Swaida. The assistance was delivered through three cash disbursements totaling $38,000, fully invoiced at $39,900 once the 5% transfer and remittance fee was applied.
Background
Students caught outside Swaida needed urgent financial support to manage their situation. The project responded with direct cash grants rather than in-kind assistance, allowing recipients to address their most pressing needs.
What was delivered
All $38,000 in project spending was classified as cost of goods / cash grants, distributed across three separate rescue cash disbursements to students stranded outside Swaida:
- 2 August 2025 — $13,000.00
- 4 September 2025 — $10,000.00
- 4 September 2025 — $15,000.00

|---|---|
| Project cost | $38,000.00 |
