Our Story

Giving is the Greatest Act of Grace.

Intro
YouFirst is an Educational Center which was established in the mid of 2016 by a small group of youth just graduated, aimed to serve students from a Khanyounis camp for refugees in the southern of Gaza Strip.

Our Team

Our team consists of 8 members having 5 female teachers and 3 male teachers.

From 2016-2017

Our initial goal was to provide education to 100 students from Khanyounis refugees camp. The project demanded a lot of money to acquire furniture and other resources including the renovation of Center building. The huge demand for money was overcome by our team contributing their parts and locals of Gaza Strip was also called for this cause and required money was collected.

YouFirst gave students economical fee structure so that the rent, billing, and salaries for teachers can be generated and maximum students can avail the opportunity of getting an economical education.

In June 2016 when semester concludes, our team jumped out of the traditional teaching classes and provided exams coaching to students for free. Later those students passed exams with exceptional grades.

In Summer of 2016, our team started to expand this setup so that with the new educational year (2017) we can serve more students of this refugee camp. So, with the start of 2017, we hosted more than 200 students. Because the students were increased by a fair number, students were taught with more zeal and passion. The coaching duration increased up to 11 hours a day.

During the session of 2017, because of the brutal siege, Gaza was out of food, water, and medication. Many families were living from head to mouth and there was the situation of extreme uncertainty. So, we have to teach a large number of students for free. Because of this, we were way short of arranging funds for our center and we were forced to close this institution which was helping many students in Gaza.


What’s Next?

We worked on different things and know how much important it is to engage the international audience for the fundraising of this institution. Our team has started working on this project from scratch. Our only goal is to provide best and quality education to the children of Gaza who are living in the suffocating siege imposed by Israeli Occupation.
