Thanks for your interest in helping Yara reach the UK to do her A-levels at Sibford School in Oxfordshire. She has won a full scholarship to attend Sibford, and all that is lacking is the funding for her visa and transport to the UK from Gaza. She only needs £3000 (US$4000) more to get there!

The video on this page shows Yara in 2022 at St Louise’s comprehensive school in Belfast in 2022, just after performing her Hands up Project winning play ‘Welcome to Earth’.

I (Becca) am supporting this fundraiser as I have known Yara since the time when she had just started participating in the Hands Up Project at the age of 11. I’ve watched her as she has thrown her heart and soul into drama performances, storytelling, and especially the amazing remote theatre productions of Hands Up. It is very exciting to be helping her continue her studies in the UK.
