Although COVID-19 has severely impacted Jordan, we are grateful that we have still been able to reach refugees throughout the community. Throughout the past couple of months, we have been able to distribute over 80 food boxes, 50 backpacks for children, and 60 hygiene kits. All of these items are desperately needed by families.
We have safely met with a variety of families through our outreach programs. In November, we met with over 30 Syrian families to continue sharing the Transformational Community Development (TCD) health education module.
We were able to share the importance of practicing good hygiene habits, as well as sticking to the government restrictions and advice, like wearing a face mask, avoiding crowds, social distancing, and washing hands. Through this class, we were also able to distribute food boxes to each family.
In December, we had a program where we were able to distribute food boxes to 42 Yemeni refugee families. We held three different meetings in order to maintain correct safety precautions and to follow the proper social distancing guidelines between the attendees.
Our goal is to keep spreading awareness while providing relief to these families. We are grateful for your support, as it has allowed us to keep working in these communities!
