Nysra Initiative
A Safe Light Room for Children in Gaza
A real space to draw, rest, and feel safe.
Sessions are ongoing. Continuity depends on support.
CARRY THE LIGHT — BY KEEPING THIS SPACE ALIVE.

Why the Nysra Initiative exists
After war, children are left with noise, disruption, and instability.
What disappears first is calm.
The Nysra Initiative exists to hold a small, protected space where children can sit, draw, and focus without pressure, performance, or exposure.
This is not a campaign.
This is not symbolic work.
This is a real space, running now — and it is fragile.
What is a Light Room?
A Light Room is a small, repeatable session designed to support emotional stability through presence and creative focus.
- Small-group setting in a protected environment
- Facilitated locally with calm structure
- Art is used as presence, not therapy and not performance
Children are never asked to explain their drawings, share personal stories, or perform emotion.
Why this matters now
After war, children don’t ask for help.
They lose rhythm.
They lose focus.
They lose the ability to sit safely with themselves.
A Light Room restores one thing first:
calm.
Not by asking questions.
Not by forcing expression.
But by holding space — quietly, consistently.
If this space disappears, that calm disappears with it.

WHY SUPPORT IS NEEDED NOW
This work is not guaranteed
We are not supported by institutions.
We do not have formal partners funding this work.
Each Light Room exists because support arrives —
and pauses when it doesn’t.
There is no buffer.
No office.
No safety net.
When support stops, the space closes.
And the calm it holds disappears with it.
This is not a campaign. This is a real space, running now — and it is fragile.
What your support funds
Art materials
Basic paper, pencils, and colors that allow children to draw quietly and focus without instruction, performance, or expectation. No outcomes are asked for. The act itself matters.
Safe spaces
Small, protected rooms that must remain available and prepared. Without funding, these spaces disappear — quietly, and completely.
Local facilitators
Trusted adults who return each week to hold the same calm structure. When support breaks, consistency breaks — and trust is lost.
Continuity
Small, protected rooms that must remain available and prepared. Without funding, these spaces disappear — quietly, and completely.
Your donation directly supports ongoing Light Room sessions.

Contact
There is no fixed address.
After the war, streets and house numbers no longer exist.
The Light Rooms operate within temporary shelters and protected spaces.
For safety, locations are never shared publicly.
