SOUTHFIELD, Mich., July 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Helping Hand for Relief
and Development (HHRD) recognizes World Youth Skills Day as
observed by the United Nations (UN). This will mark the 10th
anniversary of this day by the UN. The theme for this year is
'Youth Skills for Peace and Development.'
HHRD encourages youth involvement in global relief and
development through its Youth Empowerment Program. This program
facilitates the involvement of students with HHRD projects through
local volunteering opportunities via its international youth trips
to Jordan and Kenya.
The upcoming youth trip to Jordan is set to take place during July and
August 2024. This trip will not only
allow students to meet refugees and work with the local HHRD staff
members but will also give them a chance to participate in
humanitarian work in the field by distributing In-Kind gifts, clean
water, and helping at the local Skills Development and Livelihood
centers.
Rafi Hussaini, who was part of
the brother's Youth for Jordan
trip in 2023, shared his experience and said, "You appreciate life
more, and every small thing in life is cherished, as if after
meeting these beneficiaries, your problems and issues seem very
small."
On World Youth Skills Day, HHRD encourages youth all over the
world to join hands in active relief and development for the
betterment of the global community. For information about our
