Help 2,100 Palestinian Refugee Children in Syria Reclaim Their Future.
Rebuild Their School Today.
They were already refugees. Then, war destroyed their sanctuary. In the Yarmouk Camp of Damascus, a community of 160,000 Palestinian refugees was shattered by fierce clashes and a devastating siege. Families who had already lost their homes once were displaced yet again.
Today, the children of Yarmouk are growing up in the shadow of this destruction. Across Syria, over 2.4 million children are out of school, their dreams silenced by the conflict. We have a chance to help them press play on their futures.
The Crisis: A Classroom Without Walls
Look at this photo. This isn’t just a damaged building; it’s a stolen future. This is Aisha Bint Othman School in Yarmouk, currently non-operational due to years of conflict and neglect.
- Floors covered in debris and rubble.
- Walls pockmarked by bullets.
- Windows blasted open to the elements.
For the children in this community, this is what stands between them and education. It’s a daily reminder of what they’ve lost. But with your help, we can transform it into a symbol of what they can become.
The Mission: Rebuild Aisha Bint Othman School
We are launching a special campaign to bring this school back to life. Our mission is to completely rehabilitate the Aisha Bint Othman school, turning its 35 classrooms into a safe, inclusive, and thriving learning space for 2,100 children and 93 staff members.
We will restore everything, ensuring compliance with international safety standards and creating an environment where children can heal, learn, and grow.
Our Goal: Restore Safety, Dignity, and Quality Learning for Every Child in Yarmouk Camp.
