Year-End Campaign 2023
It only takes a spark. Let’s Light the Fire of learning for more children in 2024!
Your support re-ignites hope for refugee kids. Here is what your gift will do:
- Provide school supplies, instructors, food aid and medical care for a mobile school serving Syrian refugee families in Lebanon
- Sustain vocational training in electrical skills and sewing for Syrian girls and boys delivered by the mobile school
- Clear a path for displaced Iraqi students to access schooling in Jordan, including much-needed books and curriculum in 2023-2024
- Cover mission delivery as we form strong partnerships, fundraise and launch schools in the Middle East, Ukraine and beyond
Join us in raising $122,000 by January 1, 2024. To target your donation, type in “Light the Fire” as a key-phrase for your gift. Thank you!
