Building Bridges for Every Child

Building Bridges for Every Child
Your presence in this moment means the world to us – it’s the spark that ignites hope and transforms dreams into reality. Your support is invaluable. Join us in our mission to create a space where every child feels not just seen, but truly understood, valued, and empowered to learn and grow. At Goodwill International School, we’ve been on an incredible journey toward inclusivity and empowerment, while spearheading the best practices of the Finnish system in Lebanon. This initiative exemplifies our unwavering commitment and vision to fostering respect, empathy and community within our school. But to make this vision a reality, we need your help. We’re launching a crowdfunding campaign to raise USD 83,000 for this project: a multi-purpose room designed to support students with diverse learning needs. This room will be a hub for learning, creativity, and therapy from a range of psycho-social and educational professionals. Consequently, it will benefit a significant portion of our student body (20% of the total). As such, your generosity will not only fund the construction of the room, but will provide essential human and physical resources such as sensory materials and equipment. This will, in turn, assist parents who may struggle with the high cost of therapy, enable therapists to collaborate with teachers and parents, and empower teachers to better support their students by allowing them to remain in main-stream schooling. This service is crucial not only for students with learning difficulties, but also for their parents, in light of the ongoing challenges in Lebanon. Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful impact. As a token of our gratitude, if you choose to fully fund this project, the sensory room will bear your name – a lasting tribute for your compassion and dedication to our community. Thank you for considering our cause. Thank you for being a force for positive change. And most importantly, thank you for being a member of our cherished school family. Together, let us create a space where every child can thrive individually in a place where all abilities are celebrated.
