About Project Hope
Filmmaker Catarina Oliveira visited Project Hope in Nablus and gave us the gift of this beautiful documentary short about the organization and its work. Stay tuned for the shorter promotional version, coming soon!
Meet Asra
Asra is a primary school teacher who speaks a billion languages and has lived all over the place. We talked with her about volunteer teaching with Project Hope in Spring 2011, what it was like to grow up a refugee herself, and what she sees for the future of Palestine.
Film making for girls
In this video, with B-roll shot by Project Hope's own students, Program Advisor Sandy Marshall talks about one of Project Hope's unique film making classes for girls.
Meet Salahuddin
Salahuddin is a local Palestinian volunteer with Project Hope. He teaches computer literacy, but don't be fooled. He was Palestine's 2009 Champion in K-1 kickboxing, and teaches Thai boxing for many of our students and volunteers.
Dance Class
This spring, Norwegian volunteer Lykke taught two dance classes for girls aged 7 to 14. Each class consisted of 12 girls and met for two hours twice a week, providing the girls with regular physical activity, as well as a sense of community. "The after school activities for children in Palestine are so limited, especially for girls," explained Lykke. "It’s a chance for them to be together, to create something together."
