The Suleiman Center

A home, an education, and a future for orphan families in Jordan.

In Ain Al-Basha, Jordan, the Suleiman Center gives orphan families a place to call home. Fifteen families live here in fully equipped apartments, with the education, care, and community that let children grow up safe and mothers rebuild stable lives. This is what long-term support looks like: not a single gift, but a foundation families can stand on.

The Center's Work

Choose where your generosity goes

Every program at and around the Suleiman Center is designed around a specific need, so you can give directly to the cause closest to your heart.

Orphan Care

Your support keeps children fed, in school, and cared for — with Quran study, tutoring, counseling, and a safe place to simply be a child.
Sponsor an Orphan

Skill Development and Livelihood

Stability lasts when families can provide for themselves. Through vocational training and income-generating opportunities, mothers at the Center gain the skills and confidence to earn a living and shape their own future. Your generosity turns short-term relief into lasting independence.
Fund Skills & Livelihood

Shelter/Housing for Widows & Refugees

High rent and low income push too many widows and displaced families into unsafe, unhealthy housing. The Suleiman Center answers with dignified, fully equipped homes. Your support keeps these apartments running and opens the door to more families who need a safe place to live.
Provide Safe Housing

Food Security

No child at the Center should go to bed hungry. Regular food parcels and fresh supplies keep families nourished month after month, so mothers never have to choose between rent and a meal. Your gift fills the table and steadies the household.

Back to School

Education is how these children build a different future. Back to School support covers tuition, tutoring, school supplies, and the academic help that keeps children learning at grade level. You can now support a  child head back to the classroom ready to succeed.

Seasonal Support

Throughout the year, seasonal giving brings extra care to the families of the Center: iftar and food during Ramadan, gifts and joy at Eid, fresh meat at Qurbani, and warmth through the winter months. Your seasonal gift meets families exactly when they need it most.

What Makes the Suleiman Center Different

Most aid meets an urgent need and moves on. The Suleiman Center was built to stay. By combining secure housing, education, and long-term empowerment under one roof, it restores stability, safety, and a real future for orphan families, many of whom still carry the effects of war, displacement, and poverty.

With HDF support goes far beyond a place to live:

Fully equipped apartments for 16 orphan families, with educational and recreational facilities on site.

Quran study, academic education, and tutoring that keep children learning and growing.

Life skills training, psychosocial care, and recreational activities for healthy childhood development.

Empowerment for mothers through moral and family education, income opportunities, and community support.
