PROJECT/ REFUGEE KIDS/ FREE TUTORING

Refugees & Displaced People
Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA
Inspiration
I was part of a group that went helped kids with homework and after-school tutoring in a low-income apartment complex. We targeted this area because it was known for having high numbers of Muslim refugees living there. Anyway, I met many of the moms through working with their kids and it opened my eyes to a whole new "world."
How
FREE ENGLISH LESSONS FOR ADULTS OR FREE TUTORING FOR KIDS in low-income/ refugee areas.

All of this is just a way to build relationships with people and SHOW them Chirst. Get a group of friends, and get committed to going once or twice a week. Ask permission, if you need to, to put up flyers, or just go hand them out. You can meet anywhere, you don't even need a building....just a park or playground will work.

After a few weeks, you will be amazed at the people who show up. TONS. If you are faithful to show up and just be friendly the WORD will SPREAD. You don't need any supplies, but perhaps a bit of candy with you for the kids as well as pencils/ paper. From this gift of your time, RELATIONSHIPS WILL GROW. TRUST WILL BE BUILT. And you will have an incredible opportunities to show love and share JESUS.

You idea is extraordinary! Education can change lives of people, because it places value on people, once you took time to invest on them. Great job!
