In September, we asked for your help to support two more nursing students in Gaza through the scholarship established in memory of Dr. Razan Hamdan Abulebdeh. We hoped to give three students the chance to begin their studies. Your response went even further than we imagined.
Today, we’re delighted to share that 11 nursing students are registered and will receive funding for their full four-year course.
For each of them, this support means the chance to pursue an education and work toward a future in nursing. It means being able to plan beyond the first year, knowing that a community of people believes in them and is committed to helping them complete their studies.
It also means that, in time, these students can bring their knowledge and skills to the care of others. Each has a different story and different hopes for the future, but all share the opportunity to learn, grow and serve their communities.
Thanks to your generosity, donors have made four-year commitments to support six students through the Dr. Razan Scholarship Fund. The appeal also inspired some supporters to establish their own scholarship funds within LE.O for nursing students in Gaza.
The response to this appeal reminds us how much is possible when a community comes together. Across LE.O, we continue to support students as they pursue their education and build futures for themselves and their communities.
If you would like to help this work continue, please consider making a contribution to LE.O. Every gift helps us support students and respond to new opportunities as they arise.
To everyone who donated, shared our appeal or helped make this possible: thank you. Your generosity has opened doors for these 11 students, and we’re grateful to have you as part of their journey.
