Heavy rain damages Ramallah YWCA

Heavy rains have damaged the ground floor of the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) headquarters in Ramallah.

Water flooded the old well of the headquarters, causing structural damage to the building's walls, uprooting trees, and devastating the ground floor, the YWCA manager said on Saturday.

Maha Shehada added that the YWCA's administration has decided to stop all its activities and close the building, which has incurred about $70,000 of damage.

The destroyed floor was used for teaching the secretary program, she stated.

The building used by the YWCA was built 100 years ago and was restored in 1982.

The Ramallah YWCA provides a number of services for students and currently has 52 students and 15 employees.
