Even today, families continue to live in relief camps, holding on to the hope of returning to their original homes someday.
In the midst of this, we have been spending time with the children and youth in the camps—singing, sharing, and creating moments of joy together. Every Saturday evening, after their school hours, I go to the Mekola Relief Camp to sing with the children.
On Sunday, 31st August 2025, we organized a small day out at SIYOM Space to give them a break from the monotony of camp life. Together, we recorded three songs live, shared a simple lunch, and spent time in warmth and togetherness.
