Ali’s Story “Ali, who is 16, lives in Souf Camp, one of six emergency camps built for the more than 1.8 Palestinian refugees who have arrived in Jordan since Every day, he works at a falafel restaurant frying chickpea patties, making sandwiches, and cleaning up. He works for six hours a day during the school year and for 12 hours a day during his summer break. While Ali works, he can see his friends kicking a soccer ball on the dusty streets and laughing. He wants to join them, but he knows that he must work to help his family make ends meet since his father is unemployed as a result of severe back and eyesight problems.For Ali, working long hours every day has not just meant less time to play and enjoy being young. It has literally endangered his health: Two years ago he nearly lost his hand when he dozed off grinding chickpeas. Luckily, he was rushed to the hospital and his hand was saved.
