Help us provide some fun for the children Of Rafah/Gaza for the fourth time 2018


Gaza Summer Camp (4) Project 2018.


Gaza Summer Camp is a small project for the children of Rafah in the south of Gaza Strip to help them participate different workshops and share their skills with each other, Palestine refugee children in Gaza have only ever known blockade: a lack of food, power cuts and the constant threat of having their homes destroyed.

About Rafah:

Rafah camp, established in 1949, is located in the south of Gaza, near the Egyptian border. In the year after Rafah camp was created, thousands of refugees moved from the camp to a nearby housing project at Tel El-Sultan, making the camp almost indistinguishable from the adjacent city. 

Originally home to 41,000 refugees who had fled from the hostilities of the 1948 war, Rafah is now home to more than 250.000 refugees. High population density is a major problem, with people living in crowded shelters along extremely narrow streets.

OUR PLAN: Gaza Summer Camp 2018

120 children from five areas of Rafah north of Gaza Strip will go through a few weeks-long curriculum designed to expand their creative and technical skills. 


Activities will alternate:

1.The Theater:

We will work with children on developing their self-expression through dance, song, acting and poetry.

2. The Art Sections:

We will work with children on developing their self-expression through art.

3.The Field Trip:

 We will take all the children out on a one day-long field trip.

At the end of the project duration, we will put on a closing festival that will be open to the public in Rafah. The festival will be a chance for each child to present some of their new skills and works.

Who are we:

We are a collection of youth-workers and activists from Rafah. 

Between us, we have dozens of years of experience across the educational and NGO spectrum in Gaza. We established our foundation on August 2015 to provide the safe place for the kids. We have successfully made a few projects that listed above.

Many Palestinian kids in Rafah hope to have some time to be happy.

Kids love to feel the relaxed - some time away from the difficult psychological pressure. We are here to help those kids.

Put yourself in their place, in their hard situation they live in and think how important for you to find someone to take care of you. 

We are trying to raise the 9000$ US Dollars to implement the Gaza Summer Camp (4) for 100 kids.

In this camp, they can participate many different workshops and share their skills. In addition, we need to give them the opportunity to have fun and to enjoy their times, and its after school program.

Over the last two years,We have independently put on summer camps, a series of educational workshops,art therapy and performance sessions for children. From the photos below you can see some of the great results we have had.  You can check out more about the activities here: www.facebook.com/HPFFC.Rafah
