Dear Friends,
We have continued the school project as planned. In August, thanks to the support of GlobalGiving funds, Mensajeros de la Paz Jordan purchased fabric to produce school uniforms for all the children. We are supporting Iraqi refugees through its existing school "The Messengers of Peace School" in the heart of Marka, Amman, which serves 180 Iraqi refugee students — 100 girls and 80 boys. The school stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity for Iraqi refugees who sought refuge in Jordan amidst the tumultuous aftermath of the Iraqi war. This informal educational institution embodies a profound commitment to the principles of the right to education, the right to play, and the right to learn.
As part of our new project objectives, we are addressing both short- and long-term protection and socio-economic concerns of 9000 urban refugees and vulnerable members of the host community in Amman, empowering them to defend their rights and dignity, proposing an integrated nexus approach. The project aims to promote the resilience of individuals affected by the protracted displacement crisis in Jordan and the current crisis in Gaza, through capacity building, education, training, and community-based activities, as well as awareness raising.
We want to thank each and everyone of our donors for making a difference! We appreciate your generosity. Together we are making a positive impact.
Until next time,
