A Kuwaiti female charitable society donated a sum of USD 300,000 to Syrian refugees in Jordan, said an official here Saturday. The International Islamic Charity Organization (IICO) official Waleed Al-Said told KUNA that the donation would help fund the purchase of necessities for the refugees as well as covering medical expenses. Through the IICO, Kuwait has donated a sum of USD 30 million to help distribute necessities for Syrians.
