Dear John, Ahmed lost years of his education due to the conflict in Syria. But now, he is a successful graduate, working to support other young refugees to study for their own exams. This was thanks to support from generous donors like you. After studying hard and receiving a high grade at high school, Ahmed was accepted onto UNHCR’s DAFI scholarship programme 🎓 to study Translation. The scholarship not only covers tuition fees and materials and associated costs – including housing and transport – but it also provides students with additional skills, training and networking opportunities to help them prepare for work.
Despite the difficulties of studying while living in a refugee camp, such as lack of transport and internet issues, Ahmed graduated top of his class. Now, he works with a fellow humanitarian organisation, facilitating IT classes, as well as doing translation work for the University of Arizona.
