13) Education for a Child with Special Needs

Few affordable services are available to Egyptian children with disabilities.  The "Menara (Lighthouse) Special Needs School" in Menouf organized day classes for children with Autism, Down's Syndrome, or developmental problems, who would otherwise be kept at home and remain deprived of the stimulation and specialized training they need.  A new branch is being set up in Sadat City.  Help "Menara School" to continue to be a true lighthouse and meet the educational requirements of these special children.

14) Seaside Holidays for Underprivileged Children

Poor children in Egypt never go on vacation. Therefore, community centers in Menouf, Ain Shams, and Medinat al Salam offer children a holiday of a week to ten days at summer camp on Egypt's North Coast, where they can swim and enjoy the beach. For most of these children this will be the first and perhaps the only time they get to experience the sea! Your gift will give a child a unique summer holiday.

15)  Give a Refugee a Future through Higher Education

Every year, the Episcopal Church's Refugee Ministry in Alexandria selects a number of young adult Sudanese refugees with great potential to study communications or computer science at an Institute of Higher Education.  Such an education will give them the opportunity to secure a good job and raise their families out of poverty - hope for a better life.  Your gift covers all school fees and transportation costs for a month.
