Story
The ‘Qnushyo’ is completely run and organised by the families and adults that are fleeing from Syria, as well as a small group of external volunteers.
Since 2014, 300-350 refugees have been through the center.
The center holds daily activities such as Arts and Crafts, Science, English & Swedish!
The community center needs to relocate on very short notice, due to legal reasons and also lack of space.
Also there is a huge need to buy much needed books!!

9 years agoPLEASE READ! Dear all, Here is a long overdue update, as well as one final favour to ask. Firstly, Thank you so much for donating! Your money has gone incredible lengths, not only in providing a new space to continue and develop activities for those fleeing Syria, but also give them a space to be proud of. A space to call their own. In total, the amount of donations raised and reached to the centre was an incredibly generous £1997. Even though over £2500 was pledged and donated, many of the donations were sadly declined. The reason being is that Crowdfunding collects the donations AFTER the campaign ends, and not when the individual donates. As such, many people had insufficient funds or their cards were declined. Please can you check your accounts. If your donation was not collected, then please contact me at reecewaldron16@yahoo.co.uk if you would like to re-donate. While we have reached out target, the extra funding would go needed book and activities! THANK YOU AGAIN!
