What’s Going On in Palestine?

For the past 100 days, Palestine has been going through an ethnic cleansing. As retaliation for the October 7th Hamas attacks, Israel has bombed Palstinians on a daily basis. At least 25,700 Palestinians have been killed while 63,740 have been injured. In addition to the thousands of injuries and deaths, Israel has also been destroying hospitals, schools, and homes. Humanitarian aid has been blocked from entering Palestine to assist the injured, leaving Palestinians without food or water.

How is QCA’s Humanitarian Service Team Raising Money through IRUSA for Palestine?

Our prime focus for our campaign is to spread awareness through various events catered towards our school community. We plan on having multiple bake sales at our school and local masjids, movie nights featuring Palestinian movies, and jewelry sales. Our movie night is directed at our school community and take place at school. We’ll be showing the movie, Farha, which depicts a young girl during the development of the Nakba. Our bake sales will be held at our school and different masajids in the area. Our jewelry sale will take place at school and is directed to our students.
