Palestine Marathon Fundraiser for Al-Mada Assoc.
I'm running my second marathon ever on 8 May in Bethlehem! I am fundraising under the spirit of the founding organization Right to Movement for Al-Mada Organisation that works to preserve the culture of Palestine though education. Moving under occupation is getting harder by the day and that makes any mission to bring Palestinians form the Westbank together crucial to preserve and continue culture. Below is the message by the organisation and their campaign!
Please consider sending a small amount, reaching the goal will be a huge motivation to run 42 k, hopefully this time reaching my goal to stay under 5 hours 🏃🏽♀️➡️

"Friends and supporters of Al-Mada,
As you know, for the past two years we’ve been working on the Songs of the Country program. In this program, children from different villages have written, composed, and performed songs about their towns, villages, and daily lives. We would now like to culminate this work with a festival that brings all the children together, giving them a space to present their songs to their families and friends. It’s also an opportunity for us to be with the people who have been around us since the very beginning of our journey and the launch of our work.
The festival will take place on Friday, June 26, in the old town of Birzeit. There will also be an accompanying market featuring handmade products and crafts.
At Al-Mada, we have decided not to accept any conditional funding or funding that supports genocide, and we aim to build a community base that supports us. We are currently in a fundraising phase and need your support—either through a direct contribution of between $50 and $100 (bank details are below; you can also contact us if you prefer to donate in cash—it’s very important to inform us of any transfer so we can record it), or by sharing this message with people who might contribute, or by connecting us with individuals or institutions who may be interested in supporting us.
We are grateful and excited,
Thank you."
