JORDAN ORPHAN APPEAL
24 Apr 2020Hundreds of orphans and widows in Jordan benefit from the Al-Imdaad Foundations monthly sponsorship campaign that covers the full spectrum of their needs. These orphan families include vulnerable Syrian and Palestinian refugees as well as impoverished Jordanians. With your support we help to cover their food, education, medical and other essential needs as well as seeing to their psychological and emotional needs through a team of social workers.
OUR ORPHANS NEED YOU. PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR SUPPORT.
Volunteers reach out to Orphans
10 Apr 2016Volunteers often travel into Jordan to conduct projects for the benefit of refugees. Part of these activities always involves reaching out to orphans and offering them love and support. These activities supplement Al-Imdaad Foundation Jordan’s ongoing orphan care activities and help to show orphans that they are care for by people from across the world.
Ibnul Qayim Centre
11 Nov 2015The Ibnul Qayim centre is an important educational and religious training centre that helps to educate Palestinian refugees in the Jarash camp. The centre which was opened in 2011 provides services for Palestinian orphans attempting to memorise the holy quran, thereby increasing the social standing and self-esteem. The Al-Imdaad Foundation provides regular support to the centre and also uses its premises as a distribution point for orphan and widows from the surrounding refugee camp.
Local Zakaat Comittee
11 Nov 2015The Al-Imdaad Foundation also seeks to support its widows and orphans through local NGOs and committees in different areas. In the Jarash camp for example we provide regular assistance to the Zakaat committee which is able to keep record of the neediest families including orphans and widows and to allow us to offer assistance to them.
Orphan Voucher Programme at Amman office
10 Nov 2015On Wednesday the 11th of November 2015, the Al-Imdaad Foundation offices in Amman Jordan conducted one of their regular voucher distributions. Widows and their children came into the office to collect assistance that would help them make it through the month. The beneficiaries also had the opportunity to appeal for any other assistance they might need. On this occasion and with the approach of the winter months, the Widows were appealing for heaters to help them fend off the bitter cold of the Jordanian winter. The Al-Imdaad Foundation office team promised to look into meeting these requests.
Jordan has always been home to a large number of refugees, initially these were mainly Palestinian refugees but ever since the Syrian uprising Jordan has become one of the greatest hosts of Syrian refugees in the middle east. Many of these refugee communities live in numerous camps in Jordan with some long established camps having become their own suburbs. They are often populated by the most vulnerable members of Jordanian society including large numbers of orphans and widows who often have no means to support themselves.
The Al-Imdaad Foundation has therefore taken on the responsibility to provide regular assistance to many of these widows and orphans in Jordan, whether they Syrian, Palestinian or poor Jordanians. This assistance is comprehensive and involves not only financial aid, but also food aid, medical assistance, educational assistance and other requirements the orphans and widows might have. In many ways the Al-Imdaad Foundation seeks to take on the role of a father to these orphans by providing comprehensive and holistic care and assistance.
Our orphans and widows are spread out throughout the country in various camps, centres and localities so as to allow us to extend our humanitarian activities to the poorest orphans across a wide selection of the public. Often this means implementation of programmes through local partner NGOs in various areas.
Both a digital and hard copy file is kept of each widow to ensure that we are able to keep track of who we are assisting and how often. Generally distributions take place on a bi-monthly basis but this may change according to circumstances and season.
