Al-Aman Fund for the Future of Orphans

When they reach the age of 18, orphans graduate from care homes and begin a new phase of their educational and working lives. However, they may lack guidance, financial and psychological support at this stage due to their difficult living conditions. Based on this reality, Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah took the initiative to launch the Al-Aman Fund for the Future of Orphans in 2003 and it was established in 2006 under the name of the Al-Aman Fund for the Future of Orphans as a non-profit charitable organization.
