We have been serving the children for the last 30 years. We mainly focus on children from Garmian, a region in Iraqi Kurdistan, said Abdelrahman.
Abdelrahman added, "every month we provide 1,200 children with monthly salaries." Besides the monthly wages, these children are also granted food baskets or cash from charities and individual donors.
"We focus on children from Garmian as the region is home to many children without a parent due to the Anfal genocide," Abdelrahman added.
In the Anfal genocide of 1988, more than 182 Kurdish civilians, mainly from Garmian, were buried alive, went missing, or killed. It has left many people without any family left.
To help children have better access to education, AbdelRahman said, "We have reactivated a law that allows a disadvantaged child to graduate from primary school in only four years and not 6.
The law aims to educate children who usually cannot attend school and have to work."
The KSC encourages people to donate to children because as little as 20 dollars could change a lot for children, continued Abdelrahman.
Based in Sulaimani, the KSC is a non-governmental organization dedicated to helping children and promoting children's rights for the past three decades.
