In the spirit of humanity and compassion, join us to support the families of Gaza facing inhumane conditions. Gaza’s inhabitants are enduring relentless attacks from the Israeli military, resulting in critical shortages of vital resources such as food, water, and medical care. Famine looms large, and diseases surge as sanitation and access to clean water crumble under the weight of constant assaults. Trapped in a small area of land with their homes reduced to rubble, families find themselves in the throes of a profound humanitarian crisis.
Join our fundraising event, where the focus is not just on providing aid but also on giving hope.
Our evening will include a buffet dinner, music and poetry, a keynote presentation by medical volunteers who have just returned from Gaza, auction, and community award presentation.
