OUR GAZA FRIENDS CALL ON
CHILDREN OF PEACE TO HELP October 2007

 

With winter 2007 just around the corner, the children trapped in Gaza face a crisis of humanitarian proportions. Children cannot choose and as part of our peace mission, Children of Peace are determined to protect all of the children – Israeli and Palestinian as part of our fresh approach to conflict resolution. In this article Dr Mohammed Abh Lehia, the Director of one of our peace partners discusses the work of the Benevolent Association for All.

 

“It has become evident to all the deteriorating situation of the livelihood of the people here."

 

Ever since the tight closure of borders was imposed by Egypt and Israel, there has been a serious scarcity of the basic necessities of life. Moreover, the overall past events which our people suffered through severely has all had its negative impact on our children. The poverty they suffer from is unprecedented. The destruction has reached all means of life including factories and cultivated lands. Jobs have also become unstable due to the political conditions of the country.

 

BHAA/ Gaza was established in 1998. Our main work focuses on general health, charitable, educational and social activities. We provide so many services for the benefit of Palestinian children, such as maternity care and children’s health including surgery. We are proud of the medical lab in its health compound.

 

Much of our work is funded by German organisations, but income has dried up in the last two months because of our current situation in Gaza. The children of Palestine look up to the children of the world with hope that they may stand by and assist them through their hardships, especially at this crucial time as schools are about to open. We highly value the great efforts Children of Peace is making to support our children and help put a smile on their faces.

 

Some of the things they need include: clothing, school supplies, eye glasses and deaf aids and I implore you to support the Children of Peace Gaza Emergency Appeal.”
