Activities in Syria

Saydnaya English Language Course

This course started June 2008 and up to December 2009. Four courses were given, during each course 100-140 students enrolled at different levels.

Damascus Computer Course

This course started in March 2009 and is still running. Each course runs for six weeks and teaches basic information technology: MS Windows, Excel, PowerPoint, and Photoshop. We receive a report at the end of every course from the organisers.

Damascus Widows Financial Help Programme

Twelve widowed or needy families are given a monthly allowance of 100 to 300 USD. An ICIN representative visits the families monthly, and a report is provided to the projects committee.

Miscellaneous

ICIN sponsored a Children's Camp and Christmas children's parties in Aleppo and Damascus. Also, a grant for food, fuel, parcels, and other emergency necessities was made through Bishops in Syria.

Lectures

The Projects Committee arranged for a British volunteer (Mr Charlie Walker) to visit Syria and lecture to students undertaking the language course at Saydnaya. This was accomplished at no cost to ICIN.
