We serve children all year round

Azahir offers focused remedial education. This is for students in grades 1-9 who are falling behind in key subjects. These subjects include Arabic, Mathematics, and Science.

Our innovative approach combines creative learning strategies with play-based methods to make education engaging and accessible. Children thrive in our welcoming, safe environment where they can build friendships and rediscover the joy of learning.

Key Program Features:

• Summer Arts & Heritage: Cultural activities including Dabke dance and theater, while maintaining academic preparation for the new school year
• Year-Round Assessment: Regular exams to track progress and celebrate achievements through rewarding community activities
• Holistic Development: Creating positive learning experiences that prepare students to match their grade levels in public and UN schools

We transform education from a challenge into an opportunity for growth and confidence-building.

Psycho-Social Support (PSS) for Palestinian refugees promotes mental health. It enhances social wellbeing through culturally integrated activities. These activities provide safe spaces and encourage emotional expression. They also support community building.

Our PSS program includes:

• Cultural heritage activities including Dabke dance, arts, crafts, chess, and traditional music/dress
• Play-based emotional relief sessions for children through drawing, games, and group activities
• Communication skills training to foster cooperation and belonging
• Mother empowerment sessions for positive parenting and stress management

Our Youth-Led Team (Ages 21-35)
Passionate young professionals are part of our team. They receive training in Psycho-Social Support, Child Protection, and Life-Skills Development. This is made possible through partnerships with international and local organizations.

Community Impact
We equip youth with critical life skills and train them in community service, building self-sufficiency. Our advanced football methodology, which has been partnered with KNVB for 4 years, uses sports for peacebuilding. It also aids in strategy development. This empowers young leaders to apply their skills across home, work, and community settings.

Supporting Families Beyond the Classroom

Since 2018, Azahir has served refugee children in North Lebanon. Through household visits, we built strong family relationships and identified critical support gaps, from health referrals to child safety training.

Parents’ most common request? Help managing how poverty, insecurity, and bullying affect their children’s mental health.

In response, Azahir offers Positive Parenting workshops. We teach parents to use play and positive reinforcement, helping children cope with stress, celebrate success, and build friendships. We connect kids with role models from our Youth Team. This ensures they have the support system they need to thrive.
