Story
Firefly International transforms the lives of children affected by war. We provide adaptable, trauma-informed education in places where children need it most - helping them to heal, learn, and imagine brighter futures.
Our programmes reach children and young people in Syria, Cairo (among Palestinian refugees) and Bosnia, where conflict and displacement have devastated education and community life. From early years classes for refugee children, to peacebuilding workshops that bring divided communities together, to trauma-informed support for children who have lost everything - Firefly creates safe spaces for learning, recovery, and hope.
As a small Scottish charity with no government funding, we rely on the generosity of people like you. By fundraising for Firefly, you’re giving children the tools they need to build a brighter future.
