Together, we rise again🇱🇧

لأنّ الصحة النفسية مهمّة، وخصوصاً في أوقات الحرب 🤍

يبقى خلق مساحات آمنة للدعم، الحوار، والراحة النفسية أمراً أساسياً خلال الأوقات الصعبة.

سعدنا بتنظيم جلستين للدعم النفسي مع أ. كريستينا حداد، بهدف دعم مجتمعنا وتشجيع التعاطف، الاستماع، والاهتمام بالصحة النفسية خلال هذه المرحلة الصعبة .

شكراً لكل من شارك وساهم في خلق بيئة داعمة ومحترمة، وشكر خاص لكريستينا حداد على حضورها، دعمها، وإلهامها للحاضرين خلال هذه الجلسات.. كما ونشكر Rays Minds لإنضمامهم لنا في الجلسة الثانية...
ولمجتمعنا... نحن دائماً هنا 🤍

معاً… ننهض من جديد🇱🇧

& we didn't finish yet ...

في زمن الحرب، يبقى أطفالنا في قلب رسالتنا 🤍

نظّمنا أربع أنشطة ترفيهية قدّمت دعماً اجتماعياً وعاطفياً للأطفال في مراكز الإيواء—ثلاثة في جبيل وواحد في شكا.

من خلال الرسم على الوجوه، الرسم، الأوريغامي، الغناء، وألعاب مثل كرة القدم والكرة الطائرة، عملنا على خلق مساحة آمنة مليئة بالأمل والفرح والمحبة ✨

وطبعاً، لم ننسَ التفاصيل الصغيرة التي تعني الكثير—مثل الحلويات وبطاقات بوكيمون التي رسمت ابتسامات كبيرة على وجوه الأطفال 🤍

فخورين بفريقنا من المتطوعين ... وحب كبير لأطفالنا...و سنستمر في تقديم أفضل ما لدينا، والوقوف إلى جانب أطفالنا ومجتمعنا في كل خطوة.🇱🇧
