When in Tunisia, IHH team especially got information about orphan children, their lives and the facilities carried out for these children in the country. Already caring for nearly 45 thousand orphans in 46 countries, IHH will start its orphan caring activities in Tunisia after Eid al-Fıtr.

IHH team visited disabled children, bedded, solitary old people and the poor and asked after them, distributed food packages and supported them financially in Tunisia.
