MEET AMIRA HAZIN

Through the Holy Land ministry, Lord of Life supports Bright Stars of Bethlehem/Dar al-Kalima University of Arts and Culture, Palestine, and provided funds for a full scholarship. Amira Hazin is the scholarship recipient; you are invited to learn more about her!

“Hello, friends. My name is Amira Hazin from Bethlehem, Palestine. I am 37 years old and live with my parents and two brothers. My father is sick. We only have one brother who works and supports the family.

At Dar al-Kalima University, my major is sports management and this is my second year. I finished my undergraduate studies at Bethlehem University in 2008.

I’ve worked as a fitness trainer for five years. I learned how to do fitness lessons from my own trainer, Shireen Jabrieh. Then in 2018, I participated in the Palestine Quality for Sports Sciences & Movement course. I went to study at Dar al-Kalima in order to develop and progress in my life and to improve the living situation for my family. I like the university very much because it offers different programs and activities, motivates students to be creative, and allows them to accomplish pioneering projects.

I am very thankful for the scholarship that helped me and will help me complete my studies and achieve my goal. My dream is to work in the field of sports as a coach and motivate people to exercise through new sports games in an unconventional way through electronic screens that touch the ball helping movement and focus.”
