Some are forced to stay in the refugee camps, but most of them ask to be accepted in the local communities.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan is an important stage of this eternal exodus with an increasing number of refugees. The Country now hosts almost 1.5 million refugees coming from Syria, <strong>around 21% of the Jordanian population<\/strong>, counting seven million inhabitants.<\/p>\n<p>With the escalation of violence in the neighboring countries, the situation has worsened since the summer 2014: <strong>schools are overcrowded; refugees don\u2019t have a working permit and cannot find a job<\/strong>, with few exceptions. Many associations cooperate to help refugees through the establishment of first aid camps, the distribution of basic necessities and psychological support.<\/p>\n<p>But <strong>the real issues emerge when either families or individuals move from first aid camps<\/strong> to more comfortable flats and homes; or else when people already living in flats, cannot afford to pay the rent anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, thanks to the support of many donors and friends, we were able to <strong>grant monthly financial support<\/strong> for basic necessities, house rents, medicines and medical care.<\/p>\n<p>Loans where then granted for the benefit of Syrian, Iraqi and Jordanian students belonging to large families in great need.
