In the midst of the Syrian crisis, Iceland recently announced it was willing to help with the growing humanitarian disaster by providing sanctuary for Syrian refugees. 50, to be exact.In the country of about 330,000 people, such an offer wasn’t received as particularly heartfelt or overwhelming, especially considering that an estimated 9 million Syrians have fled their homes since the outbreak of civil war in March 2011.
In response to the government’s paltry offer, 10,000 residents of Iceland did something astounding: they stepped up to fill the humanitarian void and offered to host Syrian refugees through a Facebook page called “Syria is calling.”
Now that's something
