Providing more spaces for refugee children and youth

Ahead of World Refugee Day (June 20th), we are looking back at some of the significant projects, donors like you have helped us complete. In 2016, we constructed a covered sports field south of Beirut through Unite Lebanon Youth (ULYP), a longtime UPA partner. A grant from UPA provided a roof covering, transforming the area into a space used by the entire campus community and reducing the maintenance costs of the field. The field offers a space for the Palestinian refugee children who reside in the nearby camps.
