Mission

                     “It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.”                                                                                      -Frederick Douglass

Displaced children face a unique set of challenges, which in turn require tailored solutions. At Al Madad Foundation we concentrate on fixing the fixable, working to change what is in our control to help children displaced by violence. We understand that these children need more than our thoughts and prayers and know that we cannot ask them to hope for a better future without also providing them with a means of attaining it. Our most important mandate is to offer the tools for others to help themselves and as such we use sustainable and integrated intervention programmes to strengthen local capacity for healing, learning and growth. We work through and in conjunction with our overseas programme partners to identify areas of need and develop creative solutions.

Mission

Our mission is to empower some of the world’s most vulnerable children by providing opportunities to heal, learn and grow.

Strategic Priorities

1. Bridging the educational gap for out-of-school refugee children with alternative programmes to prepare them to successfully reintegrate into mainstream school

2. Supporting the development of tailored educational settings to empower displaced and refugee children in host communities through the means of education

3. Effecting change in the lives of displaced and refugee children through the means of artistic expression and specialist artistic intervention

4. Promoting understanding of heritage and cultural activities to help displaced and refugee children preserve the connection with their communities

5. Supporting holistic approaches to wellbeing to help emancipate the most vulnerable and eliminate as many of their immediate needs as possible
