Summer vacations are fun, but sometimes it can get quite boring for kids, especially if their parents are working parents and the kids need to stay home.
That is why, this summer, Not Guilty had a summer program twice a week called Motamayezin, or You Are Unique in English.
The sessions targeted boys and girls aged 8-12, and we had sessions on boundaries, sexual abuse, gender, self-worth, anger management, Knowing yourself, Your gifts, and many other things.
The session lasts two hours each and is all activities, between games, clay, crayons, slime, and movies.
In Egypt, schools do not start until the end of September, so we still have more time to go.
Until today, we have about 30 kids who went through the program and are bringing their friends in.
We also performed those sessions with 40 Al Samery al Saleh orphanage kids.
The importance of presenting the message in a relevant and fun way is crucial for the Not Guilty team.
