Gaza: The Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization (JHCO), in cooperation with the Jordanian Campaign, announced the completion of renovation and rehabilitation works at the government-run Jorat Al-Lot School in southern Gaza, coinciding with Jordan's celebrations of the 80th Independence Day.
According to Jordan News Agency, the school was officially reopened following the completion of rehabilitation works, in the presence of representatives from Gaza's education sector as well as several local institutions and organizations. The project included maintenance and restoration of the school premises, construction of classrooms and sanitation facilities, and equipping the school with desks and essential supplies aimed at providing students with a safer and more dignified learning environment.
The school serves nearly 2,200 male and female students who had continued their education despite severe challenges and deteriorating infrastructure and basic facilities. JHCO said the project is part of its ongoing humanitarian and relief efforts in the Gaza Strip, aimed at supporting the education sector and restoring a suitable learning environment for children amid the difficult humanitarian conditions in the enclave.
The organization stressed that the project carries both humanitarian and national significance, reflecting Jordan's longstanding commitment to standing by the Palestinian people and embodying the values of solidarity and generosity upheld by the Kingdom's leadership and people. It added that rehabilitating the school is not merely an infrastructure project, but also a step toward restoring hope for children, safeguarding their right to education, and creating a more stable environment that enables them to continue their studies despite the surrounding circumstances.
Through JHCO and the Jordanian Campaign, Jordan continues to implement a series of humanitarian and relief initiatives across Gaza, covering shelter, food security, water, health, and education sectors, reaffirming the Kingdom's historic and steadfast commitment to supporting the Palestinian people.
