Al Jania School

Funds raised for this project were used to pave the yard of the school in Al Jania. Al Jania is a Palestinian village of about 1000 persons, 370 of which are children, located to the West of Ramallah. Although not the typical playground one might expect outside a school, it was certainly appreciated. The children now have an area to line up on in the morning as well as a flat area to play soccer.

The excess material from leveling the paved area was formed into a large mound. This serves as a platform or stage with the asphalt used as seating for school wide gatherings. Goals for soccer were donated by a school in another area. The next project after the paving was the construction of new bathroom facilities for the crowded student body.
