The upcoming youth trip to Jordan is set to take place during July and August 2024. This trip will not only allow students to meet refugees and work with the local HHRD staff members but will also give them a chance to participate in humanitarian work in the field by distributing In-Kind gifts, clean water, and helping at the local Skills Development and Livelihood centers.
