A few days ago, I received a message from a school in Jabalia. Calling it a “school” almost feels strange. It was established during the war, in an area almost completely destroyed. About ten tents stand behind a metal fence, where more than 1,200 children of different ages are trying to continue their education. I know this school well. I previously organized an activity there for more than 100 children who had lost one or both of their parents. This time, they contacted me for something much simpler: School supplies. Parents are registering their children while telling teachers they cannot afford notebooks, pens, school bags, or other basic supplies. I once heard a father say: “We have nothing left to give our children except education. Maybe it is the only thing that can save them from the misery and injustice they are growing up in.” And perhaps he is right. Their homes can no longer protect them. Their parents have little left to give. Three years of their childhood have already been consumed by war. Yet there is still a child sitting inside a tent, opening a notebook and believing there might be another life beyond all of this. So I decided to launch a campaign to provide school supplies for these children. I personally take responsibility for every dollar donated. I will make sure it reaches the children and publish exactly how the money is spent and what is purchased. You can find the campaign details and donation link in my bio. If you cannot donate, please share it. 🙏🏻 We may not be able to give these children back the years the war stole from them. But perhaps we can put a notebook in their hands and give them somewhere to begin again !! #GiveHope #SurvivalTestimony
