Project Report | Aug 15, 2024
A Fruitful Summer

By Ruvi | Project Coordinator

Dear Friend,

Hello, my name is Ruvi, I have been with YSR for 2 years and am still in love with the work I do. YSR never fails to surprise me with how connected the team & community is.

I am writing to you to express our gratitude for those who have supported us thus far and to inform you about all the wonderful things we have achieved so far in 2024.

Here is a short report about all the inspiring work we have be doing in Ioannina with Habibi and sports 

Our collaboration has been both dynamic and fruitful. Together, we've hosted dance parties and conducted a handstand workshop, fostering a sense of community and shared enthusiasm. We organised a memorable team trip with Habibi and YSR to a lakeside location, where we played volleyball, swam, and enjoyed a picnic. One of our biggest achievements were the renovations made to the bodybuilding space, with Linda overseeing the installation of a roof, walls, and door, as well as painting the interior. This space is now open 24 hours, enhancing accessibility for everyone.

We have also focused on empowering women and engaging with the local community. We've hosted a women's-only dance party once a month, creating a vibrant and supportive environment. Additionally, we organised a women's picnic, where we walked to a scenic spot, enjoyed lunch, played with the kids, and danced together. Every two months, we contribute to Habibi's Kids Day by leading sports activities, providing a fun and active experience for the children who visit the Habibi space.

Kind regards,

Ruvi
