“I love House of Hope because it is giving me the chance to have a teaching profession. It is exposing me to unique school activities and new ways of learning. I also love House of Hope because it merges disabled kids with non-disabled kids. We integrate our classrooms, which is not common in Palestine.”

Milad Vosgueritchian - Co-founder and Chairman

“House of Hope believes that peace is not an impossible mission to achieve. We believe peace starts by creating schools that are an oasis of loving human connection where our kids can feel secure.”

Manar Wahhab Vosgueritchan - Co-founder of House of Hope and Educational Director

“When we truly love, we give from our hearts. At House of Hope, our teachers and our supporters opened their hearts to create a holistic, loving learning environment. We want them to have a safe place to be healthy and grow. We want to help them to see their own ability to learn and be the better future that we all want to live in.”

Educational Responses in Emergency Situations

By thea • March 14, 2026

Times of war create immense stress and uncertainty for all of us, but children are especially susceptible. Even if they are not in physical direct danger, children can experience negative psychological effects from living through war. A review published in 2022 found that rates of PTSD, depression, and anxiety were 2-3 times higher among those exposed to armed conflict compared those who weren’t, with women and children being the most vulnerable. There are, however, things we can do as caregivers to help counter the effects of war on the children that we care for. Manar Wahab, House of Hope’s Director of Trauma-Informed Education has recently taken the time to assemble guidance for caregivers, based on her experience and training in the Waldorf educational framework. The Waldorf approach focuses on “Emergency Pedagogy” to help stabilize children’s emotional well-being by emphasizing familiar structures and routines, as well as artistic expression. You can read Manar’s full guidance in the documents linked below, which are available in both English and Palestinian Arabic. These documents contain practical suggestions for anyone caring for young children during the chaos and stress of war, and include activity suggestions as well as stories that can help children hold on to a sense of hope during wartime.

The launch of the House of Hope Peace and Justice Education Fund marks an exciting and transformative moment for our community.

What Does Peace and Justice Look Like to Me?

By thea • June 7, 2024

At House of Hope, every Palestinian child has a different story of growing up under Occupation. But one thing is always present in each of their stories— the resilient hope for peace, joy, and prosperity for their families, their community, and the world. House of Hope was thrilled to partner with Color Up Peace , a Ukrainian peacebuilding startup, to capture our teachers' hope for peace in new and interactive ways- like coloring books of their visions for peace. House of Hope teachers selected photos that represented their vision of peace. Then, Lisa Glybchenko, founder of Color Up Peace, rendered these photo-based visions of peace as coloring pages for you to color ! Below, you are invited to read what inspired each teacher to select their photo, as well as download the corresponding coloring page . “Playing the Darbukah with Friends,” Selected by House of Hope Teacher's Aide Abed "I feel freedom and inner peace when my fingers play darbukah. I feel my spirit so happy when I hear music. It is the way to seek peace when the universe dances together and sings for peace day and night." - Abed Download Abed's coloring page vision for peace and justice here .

See Us As Humans

By thea • April 27, 2024

Palestinians need freedom and not tanks and an army against them. Palestinians demand dignity and human rights. They need a state of their own, not an occupation party ruling and organizing their life. We need the world to see us as humans.
