Keep Education Alive in Gaza – Power & Internet for Students

Providing safe study spaces with electricity and internet for students in Gaza.

Keep Education Alive in Gaza – Power & Internet for Students

Over dit project

Thousands of university students and lecturers in Gaza are currently facing a critical challenge:

Although educational materials are widely available online, many cannot access them due to a lack of electricity, internet, and safe study spaces.
With universities damaged or destroyed and families living in unstable conditions, continuing education has become extremely difficult. Many students are at risk of falling behind or losing their academic future entirely.
💡 Our Solution
We provide safe learning spaces equipped with electricity and stable internet access, allowing students and lecturers to continue their studies.
This is done by renting existing coworking spaces in different areas of Gaza that already have reliable infrastructure.
This solution has already been tested over several months and has proven to be highly effective.
🤝 Our Partnership Model
We are launching a monthly sponsorship program:
👉 €10 per month = one student can study
Our goal is to support 300 students

for the next 8 months.
This means:
300 people contributing €10 per month

OR

any contribution, big or small, helps make this possible

🎯 Impact
With your support, we can:
Enable students to attend online classes
Provide access to exams and academic materials
Offer a safe and stable place to study
