fyi--when I heard this I laughed, but realized how non-food this stuff is--a new 3# tub of Shed's Spread was left in a garage for one month during the summer in AZ. At the end of the thirty days the spread showed no signs of mold or other signs of spoilage. Not that you would send this to Syria, but the post made me think of it.
Find an Arab corner store - some may already offer translation services, if not just ask until you find one - and have them do it on a mailing label. Make many copies of said mailing label to put on packages and envelopes.
I wouldn't send anything which might be destroyed by heat or exposure. Be careful about anything which might not be halal or otherwise forbidden locally (as I remember censoring magazine ads of scantily clad women with a big black Sharpie so troops in Gulf War I could at least read articles).
The post office has a comprehensive list of no-nos for Syria here, which notes - inter alia - that licenses are required if the value of an incoming mail package exceeds 250 Syrian pounds.
