What am I doing?

I am aiming to raise a total of £25,000 to help complete the works on a rehabilitation centre in Iraq for Orphans and Widows. The centre will offer a variety of courses and support for both orphans and widows in Iraq that will help give them a sustainable future. 

The situation in Iraq

• Although there are no official figures, it is estimated there are over one million orphans in Iraq
• Conflict and violence in cities such as Mosul has displaced millions of widows and children
• Orphans and widows both face a host of issues such as literacy, safety and security
• The city of Mosul is recovering from the aftermath of conflict leaving orphans and the displaced particularly vulnerable

The impact of your donations

Here at HRF, we know that donors wish to see how their money is used. We are committed to showing our donors the end result of their donations. As an example, last year we fundraised for a medical centre to be built in the heart of Za’atari for Syrian refugees in Jordan. As well as providing updates on progress, we showed you the result. This new centre – 700 square metres of space – will meet the needs of orphans and widows every single day, help them develop life skills and give them the chance of a brighter and safer future.

Creative spaces and spacious classrooms will offer the ability to learn as qualified instructors and lecturers will ensure to give users the education they deserve. Classes will include training on construction, tailoring, repairing, and many more.

The centre will include the following rooms:

• Administration rooms
• Practical lecture rooms
• Theoretical lecture rooms
• Lectures and researchers rooms
• Creative spaces
• Washroom and bathroom facilities
