Dear Friend,
 Today would be the 30th birthday of my daughter Rachel, who was run over by an Israeli bulldozer in Gaza in 2003 as she tried to save a Palestinian family’s home from demolition. Last month, when my husband Craig and I traveled to Gaza with CODEPINK, it was so moving for us to reconnect with the families and the children that Rachel cared so deeply about.
We can be a part of the hope and the solution by arming ourselves with the experience, knowledge, and insight to be stronger advocates for these children and their families–to open the borders, to end the siege, to end the occupation, and to see justice prevail. We hope you will join CODEPINK in the campaign to Speak Out for the Youth of Gaza. In peace, |
Join a delegation:
- One, May 28-June 5, is open to everyone and will enter from Egypt
- A Jewish delegation, June 5-14, will enter from Israel. Click here to find out how to travel with us.
If you can’t join our delegation, you can still help the children of Gaza. Your donation of $10 will purchase a backpack full of school supplies for one child. $100 will contribute toward building an International Friendship Playground at one of the schools bombed during the invasion. To donate, click here and if you want to help Gazan children in your mother’s name, you can donate and we will send her a card with news of your gift.
