The project aims to improve the living conditions and quality of life of the children living in the camps. The Social Support Society helped us for the first three months. But In order for the program to grow and expand, we always seek financial support. We hope you can help, to build more playgrounds.</span><br />

<b>This initiative started in 2011, it started with a single person. Now its the mission of hundreds. </b></h3>
<div style="font-family: Cambria;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So far, Kahkaha has built five playgrounds in three different camps in Lebanon: Bourj El Barajneh, Sabra and Shatila and Naher el bared</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Cambria;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Cambria;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We estimate that approximately 20,000 children have benefited from these five playgrounds.</span><br />
