In light of the great pain that befell our region, the local community were able to prove that, together, they are brothers in hope before joy, for richer before poorer.

Hence, a group of youth working as barbers implemented the Free Haircut for Children and Seniors CLI at the Mazen Bagh School CS, in coordination with the SSSD team who have been present at the shelter since the first days of the disaster to help the affected HHs and provide them with assistance.

This noble stance had an important impact on the hearts of the people affected by the earthquake. In the words of one of them:

“I was upset about my hair because it was long and disheveled, and I didn’t have a comb, because the comb remained home! It’s good that a barber came and helped me!”
