Saturday Eric and Philippa took some of our lovely artists for a day out to celebrate Eid Ul-Fitr.
The girls went shopping to buy eid gifts for all the members of the hope project.
We then went to the beach where the girls collected shells and got to see the beauty of Lesvos. It was the first time they had been out for a trip and seen the island
Later a small boat trip and lunch at a local restaurant.
It was such a fun day and a pleasure for the hope project to be able to do what it's best at.
Bring hope ❤️
Thank you for everyone who has made this possible.

7 days a week we provide meals to our team and artists.
These are especially important during Ramadan.
Yesterday's food was delicious fried chicken and chip, salad and salsa. In the parcels we also include 3 pieces of fruit, croissant for breakfast, bread, dates, sesame bars and chocolate as well as water and juice.
Just 5 euros a day feeds one hope project family member.
Food is on of our biggest expenses and its hard to raise the money for such an important cost.
Will you help us continue?

Part of our work is raising awareness of the plight of displaced people and promoting empathy and understanding.
Today we were extremely happy to welcome a group of high school students from the USA.
Eric gave them lots of information and answered their questions.
They had time to chat with the community volunteers at the hope project.
We talked about the situation here and what's happened over the last few years.
We talked about dignity, empowerment, and how everyone can make a difference in this world. Especially in your own community, a kind word, and an ear to listen is where to begin.
Together we are stronger.
If we stand together we can change the world 🌎
We thank the students and teachers for their visit and their questions.

Sometimes thank you is just not enough!
Flüchtlingsrat ulm offer the hope project with incredible support and have done for years.
Every month the cover the rent for the buildings that we use, for us this reassurance and support means a great deal. To know that this money is covered every month is incredible.
Last week they sent us three pallets of brand-new items for women and men.
Supplies have been so short lately that I literally cried when I saw the amazing thing they had sent.
The pallets were packed with trousers for men and women, underwear, shirts and blouses, sweaters and blankets.
Having items like this to give fills the team with joy. I could see the how excited the team was, and how they were so proud to be able to supply such amazing things to their community.
Thank you is never enough
We couldn’t do this without you!

The Hope Project is always here to support organisations helping others. We were very happy to help out the Moria White Helmets with this tent.
