The Shlama Foundation is a non-governmental organization and registered non-profit aimed at preserving and bettering the lives of Assyrians in Iraq. The organization was created in 2014 in the wake of ISIS taking over swathes of the Nineveh Plains, and was founded by Assyrian radio and television host Noor Matti. The operations of the non-profit primarily occur in the Assyrian diaspora, while most rebuilding and direct involvement occurs in the north of Iraq.
