Project Summary

The Coptic Orthodox Church in Jordan seeks to address this pressing need by securing support to fund the tuition fees for school and university students from underprivileged families. This initiative aims to ensure that financial hardship does not hinder the educational aspirations of children and youth who have the potential to contribute meaningfully to their communities and society at large.

The primary beneficiaries are children and youth from low-income and vulnerable Coptic families residing in Jordan.

Objectives

The project has three objectives:

• To provide financial assistance for school and university tuition fees for at least 100 needy students annually.
• To promote equal access to quality education regardless of socio-economic status.
• To empower youth through education and improve their future employment prospects.

The program will be administered by the St Antonios Charitable society under the umbrella of the Coptic Orthodox Church in Jordan through a dedicated committee responsible for identifying eligible students based on transparent need-based criteria. Funds will be disbursed directly to educational institutions to ensure accountability and proper utilization.

Partnerships

St Antonios Charitable society and the Coptic Church are seeking partnerships with faith-based networks to raise funds for this initiative in covering 100 students each year.
