Founded in 2013, Mashrou Elsaada’s mission isย to support people who live in old worn out slums. The project aims to provideย psychological support through color therapy by choosing joyful colors, creative designs and inspiring quotations to bring these areas back to life one more time and leave a positive impact on its residents. Below are theย perks of participating in Mashrou Elsaada:
Not just about painting random colors
The areasย that Mashrou Elsaada decides to color are in direย need ofย this kind of help. It’s not about using random colors to paint walls, houses orย building; every color they decide to use is theย result of research. The main aim here is to improve the psychological well beingย of the residents by exposing them to happy colors and designs. It’s not a game; it’s social development!
Good people bring out the good in people
Everyone has to appreciate and admit that it’s a true blessing to be around good people; the best thing about social work is being around people who are willing to make a change. If you’re an old member ofย this wonderful initiative, you must have had a lotย fun already.ย If you’re a new member, don’t worry as it will never feelย awkward. It’s really easy and fun to mingle with the rest of the members. It’s the place you need to be if you’re willing to leave a positive footprint in people’s lives.
Not like any other activity
Perhaps you have previously joined other developmental activities orย charity work but this activity will improveย people’s quality of lifeย through using joyful colors and motivational quotations. In fact, this experience will boost your self-esteem as you will become aware of your abilities and what you can offer to society and people.
Starts with excitement and ends with pride
Most of Mashrou3 Elsaada events start at an early hour of the day. Members gather at a certain meeting pointย beforeย moving to the designated area. This is the moment when excitement hits! After finishing painting the area, members start to get praised by the residents for their efforts. Members ofย ย Mashrou3 Elsaada start the day feeling eager and excited to betterย other people’s lives andย end it feeling extremelyย happy and proud of what they have achieved.
