Creating Friendships between Arab and Jewish Students in Israel

The recent turmoil in Israel accentuates the vital importance of bringing disparate people together. Last week, Marcia's Light Foundation started a multi-month theatre and singing project, introducing Arab and Jewish middle school students to each other. Under the guidance of their teachers and school administrators the students will, among other joint projects, write and perform a play together, in the process learning each other's language, customs and culture. Bonds of friendship formed instantly.

Al-Qasemi Academic College and Marcia’s Light Bring Muslim and Jewish Students Together, Making Magic.

Sponsored by Marcia’s Light, Al-Qasemi Academic College in Israel is conducting a pilot program bringing together 15 Israeli-Palestinian-Muslim students and 15 Jewish students to learn about each other’s culture and humanity. When good-hearted mentors create a safe and productive environment for students to gain an understanding about each other, a new awareness is born. A lifetime of stereotyping and societal programming melts and trusting bonds are created.

Starting as a pilot project, Marcia’s Light is sponsoring computer training for Palestinian mothers so they can develop skills to enter the Israeli workforce and to help their children with core functions to participate in digital learning and other educational activity. Currently, many Palestinian mothers and their families do not have the needed basic computer experience to advance their welfare and partake in Israel’s economy as it transforms more digitally. All the preparation, organization, coordination and implementation was conducted with the loving hand of Dr. Rodayna Badir KaMal..
