For more than 60 days, Israel has prevented any food from entering Gaza. As of May 5, 65 children have been killed by starvation and 70,000 children are suffering from severe malnutrition with 250,000 malnourished.
You’re invited to:
- Learn how starvation has been used to oppress Palestinians as a tool of control — past and present
- Hear a psychotherapist’s recent experience with Palestinian children and families in refugee camps, hospitals, and schools, contending with human rights violations and traumatic stress while living under occupation
- Listen to live testimony from a med student in Gaza
- Participate in a Silent auction and Raffle
- Support vendor tables
- Bring flyers with your org events and actions to share with the community
- Donate to Bukrah Foundation, a non-profit org started by a local doctor, that continues to provide food aid in Gaza despite the challenges.
