I'm taking on this challenge to raise money for Mahmoudli Camp Secondary School.

This walk that I'm doing is at a particularly special time as it will be exactly 1 year since I started my journey. Those that know me know that around this time last year I had a blue badge and physically could not walk a few steps without being in extreme pain! I was taking over 40 tablets a day and on morphine patches just to survive! I couldn't pray in the correct way and had to sit on a chair to pray even!

I have changed my life around! Alhamdulillah I've lost over 5 stone in weight and am physically so much more active! Allah has blessed me now with good health alhamdulillah and I'm now walking and hiking on a regular basis! I am so blessed to be in the situation I'm in and want to give back to those that are less fortunate!

I have recently had a knee injury and have been out of actIon for a couple of months. This walk is a perfect way to ease myself back in to walking plus raise funds for this amazing cause!

Mahmoudli Camp Secondary School

Action For Humanity (AFH) has been supporting the school in Mahmoudli camp since 2018, providing more than 700 students yearly with education and protection, These students are aged between 6-12, with current support ending at 6th grade, leading to the interruption of their learning due to a lack of higher education. The local community in the camp are heavily advocating for the continuation of the school to grant a chance for their children to obtain their universal right to proper education.

How can you help?

AFH are trying to reach out to people across the globe to help us raise funds that will allow us to secure proper education for these children, greatly reducing negative coping mechanisms, improving children’s chance to get access to higher education, and ensuring psychosocial well-being as a result of the psychosocial support (PSS) components provided by the project.

The proposed project will support 500 children, males and females, who are internally displaced children in Mahmoudli camp with intermediate level education. 2% of the students will be PWD (People with Disability). This programme will assist children who are not attending school due to the unavailability of secondary level education.
