Working with local organisations we come across situations where learning materials are lacking for children, as well as for adults who need to train for new skills.

We have supported volunteers making tables and benches, we provided blackboards and chalk, paper, pens, pencils, colouring and educational books.

We help build and repair desks or any other equipment that we have the ability to fix.

In addition to that, TIAFI (our charity partner) offers a free Play a Day service to children aged 4 to 6 years old. Here they play, draw, sing, learn how to be with other children in a group and enjoy warm healthy lunches.

Meanwhile, their mothers can go to work and bring home more income. Many refugee and Turkish women need to work to support themselves and their families, but a shortage of affordable daycare facilities restricts their chances of finding employment. Play a Day offers the perfect solution. One that fills the community centre with laughter!

ABC Service

The Tiafi ABC Service provides additional support to Syrian and Turkish children in their school duties such as homework, exams, and projects. Also, we help children who do not go to a regular Turkish school yet with their admission, enrolment and language assistance.
