A small group of ABTS students and


staff went up to Zahle, the Bekaa, on Saturday April 13, 2013 to implement a one day fun program for Syrian refugee children. The children and their families live mostly in tents, and in poverty. The sun was strong. This ministry is a collaboration between ABTS, Heart for Lebanon and the Lebanese Society for Education and Social Development, organized at least one Saturday per month.


The program prepared by the ABTS team included drawing and painting, learning a song with gestures, fun games, and a story read to the children. Biscuits and juice were distributed. More than 70 children were present this time, a significant increase compared to the previous visit one month ago. At the end, the ABTS team cleaned, along with the children, the location of the activity.
