Fundraising

We at Irish Artists for Palestine ask artists, musicians/event organisers to focus fundraising efforts on supporting Palestinian organisations on the ground. Those we recommend here have long track-records of committed, often women-led, impactful work. Whether the Palestinian Children Relief Fund, who support the only paediatric oncology/children’s cancer treatment ward in Gaza (a recent target of the occupation forces), Medical Aid Palestine who have worked for decades providing community healthcare in Palestine, or the Palestinian Red Crescent’s ambulance crews, who continue to respond, with courage & care, despite the targeting & killing of Palestinian paramedics, these organisations, and others, know the urgent needs of their communities better than anyone- and need our practical support.

For organisers also wishing to support smaller & more grassroots & community-based arts, culture, circus & sports organisations in Gaza, we recommend that you get in contact with The Palestinian Performing Arts Network Programme (PAN), a union for performing arts organisations in Palestine, who work with various groups in Gaza through their member organisations.
