Please come to celebrate, watch movies, and hear about the work of two great
organizations: Lajee Center and Al-Rowwad Children's Theater, both located in
Aida Refugee Camp.<br>
<br>
<br>
We are lucky enough to have representatives from both organizations: Dr.
Abdefattah Abusrour from Al-Rowwad will discuss the ongoing efforts to bring
creativity and hope to the children of Aida, and Nidal Al-Azraq will talk about
the geographic constraints of living in the camp, and about Lajee's work to
help youth overcome such obstacles.<br>
<br>
We will screen a movie from Al-Rowwad, "Bethlehem 4 am," and from
Lajee, we will screen youth media from the summer of 2009. </span><span

</span><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><br>
This fundraiser will help to raise money to buy a small plot of land (one of
the the few open spaces remaining that is accessible to the Camp), in order to
build a playground and a small vegetable garden. These funds will also
provide essential equipment to keep the theater and dance programs properly
staffed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
