This refurbishing was made possible by the generous donation of Bader Said Al Fahoum and Un Enfant, Une Promesse. Their support was very much needed. Therefore it is appreciated twice as much.

To all friends of Jeel al Amal
Excitement is at its highest since works have started for the renovation of the first floor at the boarding section at Jeel Al Amal. The children are overjoyed to see their bedrooms, halls and the whole flat around them painted in bright colours. With smiling faces and much enthusiasm they embrace their new surroundings.

The first floor at the boarding section is for the younger children of three years to twelve years old. About forty children reside on this floor. Urgent repairs were needed in the bedrooms, housemother’s rooms, bathrooms and hall. Safety and the children’s needs were put in the first place. Best of all, the electricity boxes were renewed and new lights were placed whereas, when the electricity goes off for any reason, electricity bulbs light up automatically. New cupboards and windows were put in place. The children’s lounge, where they spend much of their time studying, watching TV and preparing themselves to go to bed at night, has become a cosy and lovely room to be in.
Midterm holidays of about two weeks were a good opportunity to proceed with the work in a timely manner.
When Thabet (12 years old) was asked what he thought of his new rooms his eyes grew with intensity and a smile came over his face: “I love my new room, I love my new closet”.
Our second priority is going to be refurbishing the second floor for the older boys, a thing equally important especially since they are also looking forward to that. We pray that with God’s will and with the support of our friends we will gather the necessary funds for that purpose.
A big thank you for our dear friends from the children of Jeel Al Amal. Thank you for helping us put smiles back to the faces of our children and for securing the right environment for the most needy children in Palestine.
