Words from Be The Ladder Recipients
The testimonials below illustrate what our donors have made possible through their support and how Be The Ladder grants have enabled recipients to pursue life-changing opportunities.
Housing Grant
"I got the money at a very critical period of my life, I was looking for a sense of stability and safety, which I lost since I left Syria. and with this money and my five years savings, I managed to buy a semi basement small apartment in Athens, and since then, I feel like nothing is impossible and I am motivated to do the best I can to have a better life. So I am really thankful for this help and I will try to pay back so this help can go to others who are more in need and give them hope and happiness as it did to me." -Recipient from Syria
Educational Grant
"Education can be an unattainable dream for refugees starting from scratch in a new country with no savings. It often feels like a luxury beyond reach. Be The Ladder changed that for me, making me feel like a regular student with the means to chase my dreams. Thanks to their support, I not only graduated faster but also gained the opportunity to continue my education. I'm currently pursuing a master's degree at a French university, all made possible by Be The Ladder. Their impact on my academic journey is immeasurable, and I am deeply grateful." -Recipient from Afghanistan
Job Training Grant
"The grant came at the right time, and also a time when I was really in need. In fact, this grant allowed me to realize one of my most beautiful dreams to get the right qualification for a better job. Thanks to Be The Ladder." -Recipient from Cameroon
