More than 700 children depend on your generosity
For more than nine years, we have provided daily education for Syrian refugees and Lebanese youth of all communities in the Akkar Governorate of Lebanon, the poorest region of the country with the highest percentage of refugees. We could enroll more than 3,000 refugee children into school. In the last school year, more than 700 students received daily education in one of our five learning centres.
The situation today is more dramatic than ever. Lebanon has lived through a total economic breakdown with more than 1,500% inflation over three years. Public schools are nowadays almost permanently on strike because the state cannot pay any more teachers. Our learning centres have de facto become the only chance for the children we serve to receive a comprehensive education.

Like in the past, we are mainly relying on private small donations to fund our daily classes. It is harder for us to collect private money, but it guarantees our sustainability and independence. In nine years, we have not missed one single school day! Our local teachers are doing a tremendous job to continue daily services despite the harsh situation. Today, they need your help to keep going.
We need to raise EUR 40,000 before the end of the year to cover the salaries for our 25 local teachers and teaching volunteers, both Lebanese and Syrians. This amount will allow us to offer daily classes throughout the school year, from October 2022 till June 2023. More than 500 students will directly benefit from these classes. This means that EUR 10 per month are enough to keep one student in school. And if you give a little bit more, we can again reach 700 children, like last year.
