Ameneh

Overview

Ameneh was established in 2003 by a group of ladies who were working as or retired from being teachers and principals of schools. Since then, its experienced staff and caring teachers have provided a safe environment for orphans and children who lack a loving family. Currently, about 19 boys and 11 girls in elementary school are housed in two separate rental buildings around the clock. With the collective support of local donors, they have recently completed the construction of a modern facility to accommodate their children, and they have relocated to this new location. This institute is supporting 30 vulnerable children, all of whom are in elementary school.

Following are brief statistics about this institute’s children’s grades:

• Preschoolers: 0
• Elementary Schoolers: 30
• Middle Schoolers: 0
• High Schoolers-Konkoories: 0

What are we planning to do?

We are planning to continue an extensive personalized educational program for each of these children, which will include the following:

• Buying school books, supplies, backpacks, shoes/clothing and school uniforms at the beginning of the school year
• Providing three refresher classes (کلاس های تقویتی) throughout the year, for exam preparation during the first/second school semesters, and summer sessions
• Registering the children above 14 in skill set classes (کلاس های مهارت آموزی) to help them learn practical skills that will prepare them for the future - for example, tailoring classes, mechanics, etc.
• Registering the students in extracurricular activities classes like art and sports classes to provide a chance for them to know and nurture their talents like normal children
• Supplying supplemental teaching resources, including a pack of story books to encourage a lifelong love of reading

Why should you help us?

Our estimates show that we need about $6,500 USD to fully cover the educational needs of Ameneh’s children. These children need your donation and support to get a decent education, to be able to nurture their talents, and to become financially independent and functional members of society when they grow up. Your help will make a real difference in the lives of these children who have been deprived of a peaceful and normal life. Please consider donating, as your donation will alleviate their suffering.
