On International Women’s Day, students from the Rosary Sisters School in Gaza have a message for all of us.

Anera, with support from USAID West Bank/Gaza, is constructing an additional floor at the Rosary Sisters School to accommodate all students. The new floor will provide five new classrooms (25 students for each).

Additionally, it will include administration and teacher’s rooms. This intervention will benefit 125 female and male students per year and allow the students to continue their education at the school.

Through our programs like this, we are able to provide refugee women in Jordan, Palestine, and Lebanon educational, vocational, and wellness opportunities. Become a supporter today: anera.org/donate
