SPWSF invites you to a Picnic in order to raise money to support women’s university education in Gaza and West Bank
Our aim with this event is to create an opportunity for people to come together in one form or another to share Palestinian food and talk about Palestine. We might be socially distanced but by participating people will be taking part in something bigger – replicated, we hope, throughout and beyond the region, by individuals and small groups of supporters.
The situation in Palestine is dire with Covid-19, recent nightly bombing of Gaza by the Israeli military, and restrictions on electricity to no more than three hours a day for Gazans, adding to what was already a humanitarian crisis in both Gaza and the West Bank.
Students supported by the Scholarship Fund are in the midst of all of this. We don’t yet know whether universities will be opening for the new academic year but students will be trying their best to continue their studies and fees will need to be paid.
