Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. This summer a team of us- Simon Mcbride, Darren Hunter, Daniel Swinburn, Ismail Chothia, Pete Hughes and Huw Lewis will be teaching English and supporting the local community in Fawwar refugee camp, just outside Hebron in the West Bank, Palestine. Fawwar refugee camp is plagued with the same difficulties of most camps in Palestine and Lebanon; high unemployment, Insufficient sewage network and overcrowding in schools. For more information please visit http://www.unrwa.org/etemplate.php?id=116 We will be traveling with the charity UNIPAL (A Universities’ Trust for Educational Exchange with Palestinians) who aim to facilitate cultural and educational exchange with Palestinians by sending volunteers from the UK to lead English-language summer camps in Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank and Lebanon. Please visit http://www.unipal.org.uk/ to find out more about the great work UNIPAL does. The individual funding of the trip has been covered by our own personal expenses and by UNIPAL. What we are looking to raise is £250 which will go towards additional educational resources for the children. None of this money will go towards individual funding only the teaching recourses needed. Any kind of contribution will be greatly received and make such a difference in helping to make lessons fun and engaging for the children. A BIG thank you from all the team!
