On Friday April 1st 2016, I will be running with Team Palestine for PCRF in Palestine! I welcome and encourage you to join us in Bethlehem, Palestine to Run the Right to Movement Palestine Marathon!
Funds raised from running the Right To Movement Marathon will go directly towards the building of the first and only pediatric oncology department in the Gaza Strip. To date, children in the Gaza Strip suffering from cancer lack the appropriate and advanced treatment needed to help them cope, survive, and heal from cancer. Team Palestine for PCRF is proud to support the building of a unique medical center to improve the lives of these children. With your contibution we will give the children of Gaza the opportunity to live healthier and happier lives . Thank you for your support.
The Right to Movement (RTM) Palestine Marathon in Bethlehem will be held on April 1, 2016. The RTM is a global running community with a cause behind them. Everyone has the right to freedom of movement, but not everyone has the option. Restriction on movement is one of the major challenges for the Palestinian people living under occupation. Palestinians cannot move freely on roads, or from one city to another. The Palestinians right to movement is controlled by their ID, permits, which city they live in, or who they are married to. Ever been through Qalandia? Then you know why we do this! The State of Palestine does not even control the full olympic marathon distance of 42,195 KM. This is why we do it.
The Palestine Children's Relief Fund (www.pcrf.net) was established in 1991 to help address the medical and humanitarian crisis facing Palestinian youth in the Middle East. It has become the largest provider of free, specialized surgical care to all children regardless of race, religion or ethnic background. Since its inception in 2009, Team Palestine has raised over $300,000 for PCRF (www.teampalestine.com). In 2016, your donation will benefit a cancer center to be built in Gaza, Palestine. Please support our runners by making a donation to this worthy cause. Every mile saves a child!
