Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part III, Line 2

“In 2016, The Syria Fund partnered with the White Hands Association and the Annenberg Foundation to create a new school for 110 students. This involved converting an existing villa into a school, purchasing all necessary supplies, hiring fulltime teachers and running academic programs including remedial education (Arabic, English, Math, Science) and extracurricular activities like music and art. The Syria Fund also launched a music program, Songs for Syrians, in 2016. We partnered with NY-based non-profit S'Cool Sounds to create an instrument-based curriculum to teach recorder, percussion and music composition to students at our Azraq School. This program expanded to over 200 students in 2016.”

IRS990/Desc0The Azraq School is an education enhancement program for Syrian refugee and other vulnerable youth in Azraq, Jordan. The program provides remedial education (Arabic, Math, Science) and enhancement classes (English, Music, IT) for nearly 100 students ages 5-14. The program additionally employs local part-time staff from the community including 5 teachers, 1 Janitor, 1 Bus Driver, 1 Cook and 1 Field Officer in Jordan. In 2016, The Syria Fund launched the Songs for Syrians music program at the Azraq School. In partnership with NY-based organization S'Cool Sounds, The Syria Fund set up a music education program for the students and teachers at the school with instruction in instrument learning and music composition. This Azraq School is run in collaboration with a local Jordanian organization, the South Azraq Women's Association, and another volunteer-based group, Helping Refugees in Jordan (HRJ). SAWA and HRJ contribute to additional running costs of this school.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0The Al Rahba School for Syrian refugees education enhancement program was established in 2016 in coordination with the White Hands Association, a local charity in Jordan. The program was set up in a converted building in rural Northeast Jordan and hosts over 100 students ages 6-14. Before attending this program, students did not have access to education. The program employs local Jordanian part-time staff including 6 teachers, a bus driver, two librarians and other support staff through the local charity. Classes include Arabic, Math, Science and English. A small library and art room were set up to provide additional enhancement programs in art, reading and music.
