Kids of Hope
Kids of Hope was born out of determination when UNICEF considered me too young to lead such an initiative. I founded and led a sports camp for 400 Syrian refugee children in Kilis, Southeastern Turkey. Every weekend during high school, I flew to Kilis to ensure the success of this camp, which focused on fostering mental and physical well-being through the joy of sports and teamwork. Witnessing the smiles of these children as they laced up their new, colorful football shoes was the ultimate reward.
