Our mission is to secure higher educational pathways for every student in Gaza.
GSSN helps rebuild human capacity in Gaza by connecting students with universities, delivering vital online programs, and advocating for institutional pathways that expand educational access and opportunity.
The Gazan Student Support Network (GSSN) is a volunteer-run 501(c)3 not-for-profit community based organization headquartered in Amman, Jordan, and San Francisco, California. We were established in January 2024 as the world witnessed the devastation of Gaza and, in particular, its education system.
In response to the ongoing scholasticide, GSSN mobilized professional networks in the counseling and university admissions space dedicated to helping students continue their pursuit of higher education.
Within just a few months, GSSN has built a global team of volunteers offering programs, trainings, resources, and advocacy in an effort to uplift students in Gaza pursuing their education under impossible circumstances and help support the process the domestic education ecosystem.
