About Zeltschule e.V.
editZeltschule e.V. is a non-profit organization dedicated to the education and support of refugee children in the crisis areas of Lebanon and Syria. Founded in 2016, the organization aims to provide children in refugee camps with a perspective through education and to protect them from a life of illiteracy. The tent schools enable children to attend school instead of having to work to support their families.
Key Products and Services
editZeltschule e.V. establishes schools in the form of tents directly in the refugee camps of the Lebanese Bekaa Valley and in Syria. These schools offer classes based on the Syrian curriculum and allow students to obtain a diploma comparable to the German secondary school diploma. In addition to education, the organization provides camp residents with essential goods such as food, water, medicine, and hygiene products. Another important project is the Women’s Workshop, where women in the camps learn craft skills and produce items that are sold in the Zeltschule online shop.
Mission and Values
editThe mission of Zeltschule e.V. is to create a better future for refugee children through education and support. The organization relies on direct, unbureaucratic assistance and works closely with refugees to identify and meet their most urgent needs. A central value of the organization is transparency, with over 90% of donations going directly to projects on the ground.
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editZeltschule e.V. aims to establish sustainable educational structures in the refugee camps to improve the living conditions of refugee families in the long term. The organization focuses on self-help by involving refugees in local work, thus giving them the opportunity to actively participate in improving their living conditions. Additionally, the organization is engaged in emergency relief to respond to acute crises in Lebanon and provide people with the essentials.
Current Challenges and Commitment
editIn light of the ongoing crises in Lebanon, Zeltschule e.V. is working around the clock to provide emergency assistance. The organization has already taken in over 2,000 people who have lost their homes and is working to prevent infectious diseases and provide clean drinking water. Support from the international community is crucial to continue humanitarian aid and enable refugees to have a safe future.
Zeltschule e.V. invites everyone to become part of this important mission and contribute through donations or volunteer engagement. Together, we can provide refugee children with a perspective and actively work towards a more peaceful future.
