Our Aim:

We hear regularly the horrific reports and traumas of Syrian refugee's struggle to survive and flee the war there.

We want to show that we are aware of their plight and are not indifferent to their suffering.

What better way than to offer our charity by doing what we have come to Newark to study?

Our aim to complete six stringed instruments, 4 violins and 2 steel guitars, to the best possible standards. Once sold, all the money raised will be donated as charity in order to improve the living conditions for the refugees. 

For 50 years, Anera has helped refugees and others hurt by conflicts in the Middle East live with dignity and purpose. Anera, which has no political or religious affiliation, works on the ground with partners in the West Bank, Gaza, Lebanon and Syria. We mobilize resources for immediate emergency relief and for sustainable, long-term health, education, and economic development. Our staff serve in their communities, navigating the politics that constrict progress to get help where it’s needed most. That’s how Anera delivered more than $67 million in programs in 2017 alone, and it’s how we will keep building better lives until hope finds its way in the Middle East.
