Youth around the world are making pinwheels for the Healing Classrooms Challenge. The Bezos Family Foundation will match their efforts with up to $400K in funding for the International Rescue Committee’s Healing Classrooms program, which provides Syrian youth with safe and nurturing classrooms. American Challenge participants will meet their Syrian peers—beneficiaries of the Challenge—in a live conversation with Global Nomads Group on April 21, 2016. Students at participating schools will have the chance to submit questions in real-time, which will then be answered by educators and students at Healing Classrooms in Lebanon.
