In its continuous efforts to support academic excellence and empower orphaned youth, Kuramaa organized a robotics training course for five top-performing students from the 2018 academic year. This initiative is part of the Orphan and Widow Care and Empowerment Program, aiming to equip young minds with vital technological skills and ignite their creativity for a brighter, self-sufficient future.
Why a Robotics Course for Orphans?
Robotics training is more than just coding and building machines—it’s a gateway to innovation, problem-solving, and confidence-building. Kuramaa believes that every child, especially those who have lost parents and stability, deserves access to the tools of tomorrow.
This training was designed to:
-
Introduce STEM concepts (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) through hands-on learning.
-
Encourage critical thinking and teamwork through interactive projects.
-
Build self-esteem and a sense of achievement in students who face daily challenges due to displacement or loss.
-
Open future pathways into technology fields where their skills can shine.
Kuramaa’s vision is rooted in the belief that education and skills development are the strongest responses to war, poverty, and marginalization.
Course Structure: Learning Through Action
The course combined both theoretical and practical approaches. Students explored:
-
Programming basics using beginner-friendly platforms.
-
Robotics design and assembly, using tools like Arduino and LEGO Mindstorms.
-
Hands-on challenges where they built robots capable of performing tasks.
-
Team projects to foster collaboration and communication skills.
With the guidance of specialized trainers and in a safe, supportive environment, students had the chance to transform their academic excellence into real-world skills.
Aligning with Kuramaa’s Core Mission
Kuramaa’s Robotics Training Course aligns perfectly with its long-term goals:
-
Providing high-quality education to orphaned youth from early childhood through university.
-
Empowering widowed mothers and their children with future-ready skills.
-
Creating a safe and nurturing environment for families affected by war and displacement.
-
Helping youth become agents of change, not victims of their circumstances.
By supporting such initiatives, donors play a direct role in shaping the future of Syrian children who have been left behind by conflict—but not forgotten by Kuramaa.
Be a Partner in Their Future
This course was possible thanks to generous supporters who believe in the transformative power of education. However, there are hundreds of talented orphans still waiting for similar opportunities.
By donating to Kuramaa, you can help:
-
Fund educational and vocational training programs.
-
Provide tools, materials, and expert trainers.
-

Every donation is a direct investment in real people with real potential.
A Small Robot, A Big Future
The robotics course for five outstanding orphan students was not just a technical training—it was a message of hope. It showed that, with the right support, orphaned children can become future engineers, innovators, and leaders.
Kuramaa’s mission is to turn hardship into growth, and loss into leadership. But we can’t do it alone.
