HCEF Christmas Artist Award Ceremony

Bethlehem, Palestine- HCEF President Sir Rateb Rabie awarded prizes to 15 children from different schools in the Bethlehem Area as part of the Christmas Artist drawing competition. The ceremony was attended by students from various schools in different governorates. During the event, Sir Rateb explained that the idea of these drawings is that they actually reflect the thoughts and imagination of children in Palestine.
