Dear Supporters,
Thanks to the continued support of our donors, the Umut Organization team in northern Syria was able to help five new orphan children and provide financial sponsorships for them on your behalf.
We convey to you with love and gratitude the deep feelings and great attitudes that we experienced with these heroic children who have passed their years and took responsibility early after losing their parents due to the war in Syria.
Our first meeting was with the beautiful little boy Ibrahim, who helps his uncle in his small shop that sells junk and repairs household electrical appliances. He greeted us with his innocent looks and sweet words and explained to us some of the small jobs he does.
In the same place, we also met ten-year-old Hassan, who used to come to work on holidays to cover the expenses for his school supplies and bear some responsibility with his mother. Hassan has great self-confidence and a strong desire for success.
On the second leg of our trip, we met the 13-year-old Murad, who works in a bicycle repair shop. Murad was a little tired and his little hands were full of grease. We spent some time with him while he was resting and drank tea together.
Our little tailor, Samer, was happy to meet us, and the smile did not leave his face. Samer also lost his father in this war and now he works in a sewing workshop and is learning this profession that he loves. We talked to him about the possibility of returning to school and working on holidays and free time.
Our last stop was with Muhammad, 14 years old, a conscious child who lives with his brothers in his grandfather’s house after the death of his father. Muhammad now works in a store selling car spare parts and car oils in Jarabulus.
Our esteemed donors, we thank you for your great support and continuing with us and enabling us to see these little heroes, help them, and hear their concerns and dreams, and we convey to you their great thanks and gratitude.
