Help Karama Within Deheishe Refugee Camp

Dear friends,

Karama (www.karama.org) is a very young, active and independent NGO within the Deheishe refugee camp close to Betlehem ( Palestine ) supported mainly through private donations from Europe . The main objective of these activities is education, geared to youths between 10 and 16 years of age and women.

Karama is currently raising funds to organise in August 2007 a joint summer camp with Bustrup School Centre (www.bustrup. dk) in Bustrup Hovedgård ( Denmark ). This school’s main activity is the running of a private school for children and teenagers with social and learning difficulties.

The purpose of the summer camp is not only to give both the Palestinian and Danish youths a break from their less-than-perfect environments, but also to enable a constructive cultural exchange between the Palestinian and Danish young people and spread information about Palestine and its current situation.

By making this summer camp possible, we would be not only helping a group of troubled youths with different backgrounds to have a good time, but also educating them in tolerance and understanding of different cultures.

Please, do check our website and decide whether Karama is worth your attention. We would also greatly appreciate, if those of you who own a webpage would link to us.

Kind regards,

Karama
