Just imagine a hundred thousand children having their summer vacation in the stifling heat and with no place to go. So it is very important that all kinds of things are organized to help the children get through the summer and to offer them new and exciting experiences to distract them from their daily worries.
Every year HOPE supports between six and eight different summer camps. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society organizes a summer camp in Khan Younis in collaboration with the Open Studio. In other parts of Gaza local artists and local organizations organize summer camps in themes like theatre, music, social media and community art.
Over a period of two months many hundreds of children participate in these Summer Camps.
