Al Saraya Center was established as a non-profit community organization in 1991, in the heart of the Old City of Jerusalem, in a strategic area called Aqbat Al-Saraya, several meters from the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the area is considered one of the poorest and most needy areas and one of the most present areas for Israeli settlement. The Center was established in response to the urgent need to strengthen the Arab presence in Jerusalem and the Old City, with the aim of improving the cultural, social, educational and economic conditions of the population and contributing to reducing the effects of Israeli policies aimed at Judaizing the city. The Center believes in the importance of developing life skills for the target groups of children, women and youth, and its key role in bringing about societal change in order to reach its vision of building an empowered Jerusalem community that lives in dignity and is able to withstand in the city of Jerusalem, maintaining its existence and the continuity of its giving and good reputation, despite all the threats faced by Jerusalem institutions in Jerusalem.
