Tawakkol Karman Foundation funded a project to restore and rehabilitate Al-Farouq Secondary School in the Sala district in Taiz, which is one of the oldest schools in the governorate.

During the war, the school was bombed, destroyed, and looted. Student Omar Abdulaziz says that he and his colleagues are deprived of the basic needs of students, such as chairs and tables to sit on safely. As the depleted chairs do not meet the purpose, and from time to time one of the students falls off these chairs.

The vice principal, Abdullah Abdul-Momen, attends every day carrying a backpack full of papers and documents due to a lack of an administrative office to keep his documents after it was destroyed, like other school facilities, which used to consist a of theater and office for the social worker.

The vice principal of Al-Farouk School describes to Haith Al-Insan program the situation of the school, which contains 17 classrooms and accommodates approximately 240 students, as being completely devoid of all the tools of the educational process.

Tawakkol Karman Foundation brought life back to this school, renovated it, rehabilitated the laboratory and theatre, provided chairs for classes and office furniture for the school administration, and painted the walls to provide a conducive environment for education and to return from under the rubble.

The project of restoring and rehabilitating Al-Farouq School in Taiz is part of Tawakkol Karman Foundation development program "Haith Al-Insan”, which is presented by Belqees channel during the month of Ramadan.
