Mission

Displaced and refugee children have often been exposed to realities that promote a narrative of hopelessness. Unfortunately, due to the limited resources/protections in the developing world, children often fall prey to narratives and forces that make things worse, creating vicious cycles that can last for generations. Our professionally trained teams work to deliver strong counternarratives that bring joy and provide examples of neighbor helping neighbor. Our teams work to increase and promote long lasting sustaining hope in the hearts of children throughout the Middle East and North Africa. We believe that changing the life of a child today can positively impact society tomorrow.
