In addition to these workshops and
initiatives, the society distributes food packages to underprivileged
households, clothes, wheelchairs, and medical supplies to people in need, and
aid packages to Syrian refugees.
The society has entered several partnerships
to expand its efforts, including one with the Jordan River Foundation to train
90 women in embroidery and extend them the opportunity to work from home for a
period of one year.
The society’s fabric-recycling
project, which trains a number of beneficiaries, is also currently being funded
by the EU. The society is playing a significant role in enhancing the role of
women in Jordan, particularly those in underprivileged areas, by providing them
with the support and resources needed to become financially independent and
active members of their communities.
