AWCA General Meetings are typically held on the first Monday of each month from September through June at 10:00 a.m. in the heart of Amsterdam. The first hour is social; say hi to friends while enjoying coffee, tea or water. The meeting begins at 11:00 a.m when we welcome one of our top level speakers then make club announcements. Babysitting is free and available upon advance request via the link for that month's meeting.

Speaker: Valerie Russell
Valerie Russell attended the FAWCO trip to Jordan where she and 20 others had the chance to meet the beneficiaries of our Target Project, Hope Beyond Displacement, and learn about the important work Collateral Repair Project is doing.
Valerie will share her new knowledge about the Target Project. She will tell us about her travel throughout Jordan seeing historical sites and visiting programs supporting women and girls to gain a cultural perspective and understanding of the society. She will share with us about her three days in Amman, Jordan with daily visits to Collateral Repair Project (CRP): meeting the beneficiaries of the FAWCO Target Project, Hope Beyond Displacement; her learning about the experience of urban refugees in Jordan; and see how CRP is addressing the community’s needs with a holistic approach through education.
