Stories of Impact

Real stories of children whose lives have been transformed through education

Amira's Story

12-year-old girl from Rafah

After being out of school for over a year, Amira joined our mobile classroom. Initially withdrawn and struggling with basic skills she had previously mastered, she found her confidence through our Memory Revival program.

"I thought I had forgotten everything. Now I remember not just what I learned before, but I'm learning new things too. I want to be a teacher someday."

Today, Amira leads creative writing activities for younger children and has become an inspiration to her peers.

Yassin's Story

9-year-old boy in hospital recovery

After being injured and spending three months in hospital, Yassin was isolated from his peers and education. Our Hospital-Based Learning program brought not just lessons, but connection and hope to his bedside.

"The teachers make me forget I'm in hospital. When we have our lessons, I feel like I'm back at school with my friends."

Upon discharge, Yassin seamlessly transitioned to our mobile classroom, where he continues to thrive academically despite his physical challenges.

Leila and Layla's Story

4-year-old twins in Al-Bureij camp

Having never experienced formal education, these shy twins joined our Mobile Kindergarten program. Through songs, games, and age-appropriate activities, they've developed early literacy and numeracy skills along with crucial social abilities.

"My daughters wake up excited every day for 'school time'. Even in our difficult situation, they're learning, playing, and staying children." - Father of Leila and Layla

Their transformation from hesitant participants to enthusiastic learners demonstrates the power of early childhood education even in crisis settings.

Looking to the Future

As we build on our current work, we aim to expand our reach to 5,000 children by 2030, develop sustainable learning models that can be replicated globally, establish permanent learning centers, and enhance our psychosocial support services for children and families affected by conflict.
