Friends of Hebron imparted on a successful campaign to provide relief to hundreds of struggling families in Hebron. Through crowdfunding and grassroots outreach, Friends of Hebron successfully provided relief to close to 600 families in Hebron. The aid provided ranges from food supplies, medicine, gas, toys for the children as well as Ramadan lights and cash support handed directly to mothers. Furthermore, the efforts of Friends of Hebron include helping certain families install fences to protect their houses from vandalism or break-ins by extremist Israeli settlers.
"In dark times like this, we need to ensure the basic survival of our community," said Friends of Hebron Director Issa Amro, who have coordinated efforts on the ground. "Even here in Hebron, people have been going hungry due to the severe restrictions and economic conditions imposed on us by the Israeli occupation. Our volunteers on the ground have done amazing work surpassing these conditions and bringing supplies and relief directly to families through the checkpoints. We thank our supporters for making it possible and are proud to have helped families to support themselves during this time."
