Healing & Hope

Post-Crisis Support for Orphans in Iran

The recent attack on Iran may have faded from the headlines, but its echoes still reverberate in the hearts of the orphans and under-resourced children cared for by Golestan Foundation. Long after the sirens have stopped, these children continue to live with anxiety, grief, and lingering trauma—without the steady comfort of parents or extended family. This campaign focuses on recovery and renewal, giving every child the chance to heal, grow, and simply be a kid again.

How Your Gift Sustains Their Healing

  1. Continuous Trauma-Informed Counseling: Ongoing one-to-one and group therapy (in person and virtual) led by child psychologists and art/play therapists. Regular mental-health check-ins to track progress, prevent PTSD, and build emotional resilience.

  2. Restorative Recreational Trips: Day-excursions to parks, museums, and cultural sites that offer safe spaces for laughter, exploration, and social bonding. Multi-day nature retreats designed to lower cortisol levels, encourage physical activity, and foster a sense of normalcy.

  3. Therapeutic Arts & Sports Programs: Weekly music, painting, drama, and dance workshops proven to improve mood and self-expression. Structured sports and movement classes—including physiotherapy sessions for children with injuries or disabilities—to rebuild body confidence.

  4. Caregiver Training & Peer-Support Circles: Specialized workshops that equip staff and foster families with tools to recognize trauma triggers and nurture healing environments. Peer-led support circles where older teens mentor younger children, reinforcing community and belonging.

  5. Long-Term Wellness & Education Funds: Coverage for follow-up medical appointments, vision/hearing checks, and medication for stress-related conditions. Scholarships for tutoring, vocational training, and college prep so each child can envision and pursue a bright future.
