Join Us at Our Next Training
Sunday, March 30
Our trainings offer tools for effective grassroots fundraising, tips for trauma informed communication with Palestinians on the ground, and collective care to sustain our long haul work.
Send Support to People in Palestine
The Narrow Bridge to Deir al-Balah Collective is now ready to receive donations to send to Palestinian families. Make a monthly contribution to help people on the ground.
The Narrow Bridge to Deir al-Balah Collective has two core goals: to meet fundraising needs for families in Gaza we are already in relationship with, and to support as many people as possible in being as effective as possible in resourcing Palestinian survival through relational and financial support.
