The Annual PfP Gala is back! Join us on Sunday, October 20th, for light refreshments, and a silent auction, followed by a dinner, presentations, and entertainment.
So much has happened in the last year, and PfP has stepped up to do our part to protect our children, especially in Gaza. This year, we finished three playground projects that were carried out from previous years, but our flagship project now is a school we recently established in Gaza to serve 120 students (for now). We are hoping to expand and grow to meet the dire needs of children who are facing another year without school.
These children are our future and we refuse to sit by while their futures are stolen. We hope you will join us to learn more about this initiative and support our work.
This evening will begin with light refreshments and a silent auction, followed by dinner, presentations, and music by the stunning, talented, compassionate, beautiful soulful Farah Siraj (@farahsiraj).
