In 1995, Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah established the Jordan River Foundation (JRF) to promote child safety, women, and communities’ empowerment in Jordan. Today, the Foundation is recognized nationally, regionally and internationally as an agent for positive change and as a leading Jordanian institution contributing to the social and economic wellbeing of citizens.
Upon visiting the center, visitors are welcomed by the women weavers who are eager to show them their beautiful wool products, share their stories with them and provide them with the opportunity to have hands on experiences in using the weaving machines and possible take part in weaving their own carpet or basket they may want to purchase.
