Dear Friends,
We are writing to you to ask that you join us in our commitment in the struggle against the Occupation and for human rights. For 17 years our role has been to focus attention on the Occupation and its consequences for the Palestinians and Israeli society as well.
All of us work as volunteers, and our organization’s budget is a modest one. Modest as it is, we face financial challenges as we prepare our 2018 budget. In recent years, many European governments have stopped supporting Israeli human rights organizations. Foundations are hard strapped to provide support. But most seriously for us, we have lost a major funder (of over 12 years) who will no longer support our work because of changing priorities.
We have embarked on a campaign to raise 120,000 NIS ($35,000 / 26,000 GBP) towards our 2018 budget to enable us to continue our activities that include:
- Observations at the Checkpoints, and the Military Courts
- Reality tours to the West Bank and Jordan Valley
- Combatting the bureaucracy of the Occupation
- Lectures and tours with young people
- Outreach through our website and social media
