A home for refugee teenagers

After 7 months and plenty of challenges, we are really proud that now 4 of our young participants are employed legally in Greece.

Two boys are having office jobs, one found work in a hotel and one in agriculture. In the photo below you can see one of the boys we support, at work.

Since all of them are able to communicate in basic Greek, they only need to build confidence and raise enough money to move into their own home. This is why they are all trying really hard to find work.

Thank you for your ongoing support! It means the world to us and to those we serve :)

It's only the beginning of the summer - the number of new arrivals is increasing every day... Most refugee camps have already reached double capacity and the city parks are the only beds left available for the homeless! For the past 7 months we are giving a safe home to 12 young refugees that travelled to Greece alone. We need your help to keep it going and to support more young people in need.

The situation is still pressing, as you can see here:

So proud of our boy, Ali, for scoring 14,7/20 in High School! Ali is enrolled in a Greek High School and he is the only foreigner in his class. Hard work pays off! Way to go Ali!! A clear proof that integration can work, if its' done right. #integration #refugeeswelcome
