Help Us

We invite you to take this opportunity to become involved in the struggle for justice for the Palestinian people, which is essential for the security of all those living in the Middle East and in the rest of the world.

There are many things you can do to express your solidarity with the Palestinians even if you do not have a lot of time to volunteer or money to donate.

You can raise public awareness of the situation by raising the issue with other people.  You can bring up the matter with people you know, with your union or your place of worship and so on.  Don't be discouraged, eventually public awareness will reach government level and change foreign policy.

Crimes committed against the people of Palestine are often carried out with the support of foreign governments, including the Canadian government. Find out who your public representatives are and what their positions are.  You can sign petitions and write to (local) politicians, they represent you so you have every right to contact them about your concerns.

Be informed and be aware of media biases.  Often there is prejudice toward Israel in the language and the pictures that are used by the media, so write to newspapers or complain to TV and radio if you detect inaccurate or biased reporting.

In the fall of 2003, we were pleased to announce the establishment of the first

Palestine Community Centre

1874 Kingsway

Vancouver

www.palestinecommunitycentre.com

The Centre aims to provide social, cultural and political programs and services, to serve the Arab community in BC, to protect and to preserve the Palestinian national identity, and to empower the Arab community and its political presence in BC.

Meanwhile, we are still calling for financial or in-kind support from the community, friends and  supporters, especially since the Centre has not relied on any governmental or institutional funding.

People who would like to donate to the Centre, please e-mail or phone us at 604 873 6567
