Did you see your legacy of goodness?

By Abdulrazak Madi | Project Leader

Wasn’t this your dream from the very beginning? That your goodness would continue to thrive, even in your absence? That it would create a ripple of change unconstrained by time or place?

We cannot fully express how grateful we are for the light you have sparked in someone’s life. Today, we bring you a beautiful and touching story—one we hope will fill your heart with pride and purpose!

In 2021, Eman joined our initiative. A young refugee girl, her only dream was to find a place in a classroom—something bigger than the boundaries of her tent. Today? Eman is a third-year university student, studying English at a Syrian university.

But that’s not all!

Just recently, Eman was our special guest at one of our academic advising sessions designed to support new students. She stood before everyone with the confidence of a woman who has overcome much, and she shared her story—about shaky beginnings, the fear of failure, daily struggles, and the fierce determination that carried her to success. Her words were full of life—just like the light you once ignited in her heart.

Throughout her years with us at Masarat, Eman honed her skills, gained valuable experience, and today, she is one of our most dedicated volunteers—giving back, and helping build a better future for her homeland alongside other youth.

Take a moment and think about it—how does it feel to see the fruits of your generosity reach deep into the lives of others?

It’s a feeling beyond price! From the depths of our hearts, thank you—for every seed of kindness you planted, every soul you touched, and every lasting impact you’ve made.

In just 15 days.. you made the difference!

By Abdulrazak Madi | Project Leader

In a constantly changing world, we rarely know when we will make a real impact. But you did. In less than half a month, you left your mark on the hearts of dozens of Syrian children, and you became the light that illuminated the beginning of a long journey of learning and hope. From the heart... thank you.

In just 15 days, your support helped continue a comprehensive educational journey that directly impacted the lives of ambitious students who had nothing but their dreams and the effort to achieve them.

What has been achieved since the beginning of April?

School Education: We conducted 216 lessons for our students in the 9th grade and the 12th grade, in both the scientific and literary tracks, providing them with a solid academic foundation to prepare for the crucial exams.

Student Activities: We organized 3 interactive sessions aimed at building the student's character, boosting their self-confidence, and encouraging them to express themselves, so they feel that they are not just a number, but an active individual in their community.

Academic Guidance: We held two guidance sessions to help students discover their academic and professional inclinations, enabling them to make informed and enlightened decisions about their future paths.

Imagine this… A student sitting in a small tent, in one of the displacement areas, wakes up to attend their daily lesson, using a phone that you also provided. They participate, ask questions, learn… and dream.

All of this impact was made possible because of you. Can you imagine how much more could be achieved if you decided to continue this beautiful impact?

Your support makes a difference. Not only in one person's life… but it lifts a family, strengthens a community, and rebuilds a nation.

Training Scholarship: Your Gift to Them!

By Abdulrazak Madi | Project Leader

Imagine that a single educational opportunity was enough to change a young person's life forever.

Thanks to your generosity, and in partnership with Arizona State University, the Masarat Initiative launched a flexible training scholarship for learning English. It is designed for our university students and academic team, using a self-paced learning approach that aligns with their daily challenges and circumstances.

More than 300 young men and women have received this unique opportunity, which includes two levels of training:

The first: a comprehensive program that develops language skills from beginner to advanced.
The second: an academic program focused on writing, critical thinking, and scientific research.

To ensure the best educational experience, each student is accompanied by a Masarat supervisor who provides continuous support and guidance — step by step — until they earn an accredited certificate from Arizona State University.
A certificate that opens new doors in both education and employment.

Your giving is no longer just a contribution...
It has become a true success story.

Pause for a moment and imagine that your support was the reason a young man succeeded in an international job interview… or that a student finally received the scholarship she had always dreamed of… or that a young person, for the first time, felt that their voice matters in this world.

We witness this impact every day —
In their hopeful eyes, In their first attempts to speak the language that may change their lives…
When one of them shyly and passionately says:
“Hi, I’m learning English… because one day, I want to change the world.”

Thank you for believing in them. Thank you for believing in knowledge… as a path to a better life.
