Dear Friends,
Today is the International Children’s Day.
And I am happy to announce that in October 2015, Insan School has opened 2 classes for children, who have not been able to register in Lebanese schools. In these classes, boys and girls study languages: Arabic, English, French and Mathematics and they also have some sports classes, such as Basket ball, which is a very good way of developing team spirit.
This year, Lebanese public schools have opened afternoon shifts for 200.000 Syrian refugees, an increase compared to last year's. But this is still insufficient to accommodate all refugee and migrant children. The UNHCR estimates that there are more than 500.000 Syrian children living in Lebanon, in addition to 20.000 children of migrant workers.
The children at Insan School come mainly from Iraq and Syria, and have fled the war, the violence, and the massacres, in their respective countries. Insan wishes to open a 3rd class, if you want to continue to support us, please contact us at insan@insanlb.org or (+961) 03 42 41 66.
On Behalf of Insan Association, I would like to thank you for being a part of Insan School and for your trust in Insan’s projects.
Warm Regards,
Insan Team
