Educate 500 Orphans in Syria

You are a driving force in improving the lives of hundreds of teachers who have dedicated their time and effort to their students.

Take Mr. Abdul-Munim, for example. Four years ago, his life was completely different. He was teaching at a school in his hometown, but the war forced him to leave everything behind. His school became one of the 400 educational institutions destroyed by the conflict.

When Abdul-Munim arrived in northern Syria, he was exhausted and lost, unsure how to continue his life after losing its most crucial element: safety. He decided to turn his hardships into a catalyst for positive change. He joined the Masarat Initiative to build a generation that is educated and aware, blending knowledge with hope.

Abdul-Munim joins his classrooms with a smile, surrounded by students who look up to him as a mentor and inspiration. He combines science and life in his lessons, giving his students the opportunity to build a better world than the one they were forced into.

You and Abdul-Munim are partners in building a generation capable of rising above their circumstances. From the heart of northern Syria and from various corners of the earth, we share a common goal. Partners in building hope. Abdul-Munim’s story would not have been possible without the generous contributions of supporters like you, who believe in the power of change and the importance of enhancing lives through education.

During our recent visit to the Deir Hassan camps in northern Syria, we witnessed the profound impact of education on the lives of children and their families. These moving stories extended beyond the classroom, touching the hearts of families who see education as a beacon of hope and a refuge for a better future.

We met Umm-Ismail, grandmother of little Maria, Maria lost her father and lives in a small caravan. With a voice filled with emotion, Umm-Ismail shared, "We were going to send her to work with her mother because we couldn't afford school fees and books. Now, we're so happy she's studying from our caravan, and most importantly, for free." Her words reflect the hopes she holds for Maria's life.

In another tent, we sat with Ahmed and his father, who were forcibly displaced to an area far from schools. Ahmed's father spoke with determination about rebuilding their lives through education. "Due to the displacement, we stopped his education. Now that the opportunity is available, I'm thinking of going back myself to complete my baccalaureate next year"

The stories of Maria and Ahmed are part of the lives of 13301 students who joined Masarat this year. These children are learning in encouraging and safe environments, preparing for the final exams that will open the doors to universities for them.

We are grateful for your trust in us to achieve this significant change for our students and their families and to see hope shine in their eyes every day.
