I AM REACHING OUT TO YOU FOR HELP
I am joining 50 cyclists this September Cycling4Gaza on a 250Km ride from Avilla to Madrid to raise awareness and funds for the emergency humanitarian situation in Gaza. All the funds are raised for carefully selected, reputable, non-profit organisations that provide critical health and education support to vulnerable Palestinian communities. So far we have managed to raise USD 137,760 for this year’s cycling initiative. My personal objective is to raise USD10,000 with your help. And I will be matching each dollar I collect with a dollar from my side.
Thank you,
Ahmad

ABOUT CYCLING4GAZA
Cycling4Gaza operates on a volunteer basis. Therefore, each year, 100% of the funds raised go towards healthcare and educational projects in Gaza. Our charity partner, the PCRF , focuses on providing vital healthcare for children in the Gaza strip. Following the cycle, the PCRF provides detailed reports on the progress of the projects C4G has contributed to, and we can provide this to any donor upon written request to info@cycling4gaza.com.

ABOUT THE PCRF
The Palestine Children’s Relief Fund is celebrating 25 years of saving lives as a nonprofit humanitarian organization in the Middle East. What started as a personal effort for its CEO, Steve Sosebee, a journalist who arranged free care in Ohio for an injured brother and sister from Hebron, with the support of Dr. Musa and Suhail Nasir in Los Angeles, has evolved over the past two-and-a-half decades into one of the most effective, efficient and transparent organizations in the Middle East. They have touched the lives of tens of thousands of innocent children by providing them surgery through hundreds of volunteer missions from all over the world, sending nearly 2,000 children abroad for free care and healing tens of thousands more Palestinian, Iraqi, Lebanese and Syrian children through different humanitarian projects, regardless of their nationality or religion.

The 2014 war on Gaza left thousands of children injured not only physically but also psychologically. Today, approximately 373,000 children in Gaza suffer from emotional and psychological trauma and are in dire need of mental care support and reintegration into society.
The objective of the Gaza Mental Health Project is to assess children’s needs, provide them the service they require and to train social workers on administering screening questionnaires. Over 1,300 children have been screened by 5 field workers to date and their subsequent programs are currently being developed.
