Young refugees graduate courses on digital literacy and cell phone repairs
We offer our warmest congratulations and best wishes to all the boys and girls who successfully graduated.
We work with generous individuals and organizations and use their donations where they are needed the most.
Women and children on the run are one of the most vulnerable groups in the planet. Often, they flee with little more than the clothes on their back, leaving behind homes, belongings, jobs and loved ones. Most of them end up in low-income, poverty-ridden countries, living in crowded camps or rundown urban areas. Women refugees are rarely recognized for their capacities, skills, and abilities. Lack of support and autonomy, little access to education and work opportunities, culture, and stereotypes trap these women in a situation of helplessness, abuse and dependency.
We use our funding to provide supportive housing to women and children. Every act of generosity is a steppingstone for our residents to live in dignity, access opportunities and, ultimately, rebuild their lives.
So, their journey to safety can come to an end, a happy end.

It is amazing that we can now spend our time in peace without bearing the constant worry of money... Now we can think about our education and our future. From my heart, I would like to thank all of you who support the continued existence of this beautiful home
Finally, I can close my eyes relaxed without thinking about how we will be able to survive. It is very stressful to be a mother of two teenage girls. I hope that God blesses your efforts because now I have the time to take care of my girls within this large, loving family.
I used to be alone and did not feel safe before, but now everything is different. I have a large family that cares about me. I cannot express my gratitude to be in this house.
We are eager to move forward into the new 2021 on a note of hope and positivity.
We offer our warmest congratulations and best wishes to all the boys and girls who successfully graduated.
