About the project
The Beit Safafa-Shrafat Community Center serves children, youth, adults and senior citizens of Beit Safafa and Shrafat. The Jerusalem Foundation created the center, originally called the Beit Safafa Community Club, by building a third story above a two-story building that formerly served grades 1-3 of an elementary school. It created a computer lab and an outdoor sport court, and has supported early childhood education programs, summer camps, extracurricular activities, seniors’ programs and the Jewish-Arab Soccer Team that the center oversees.
