Success Story

Lina, Lebanese, 40 years old:

“I’ve been facing a lot of obstacles and problems for the past years and I couldn’t stand and bear with anything no more. So back at the time, I decided to see a psychologist, and it’s been 5 years since then. However, this 5-day workshop was worth those past five years. With the help of the amazing team, the amazing colleagues, and the family we have created, I feel stronger than ever and I feel like I’m through with my psychologist thanks to all of you and this project”

Blockqoute

Rola, Palestinian, 40 years old:

“This project has been useful to us and me personally in many different ways; socially, economically, psychologically, and personally. This type of project should be implemented more often to help the women in our society to overcome their fears and every obstacle that comes our way”
