December 16th from 5:00 to 7:30 pm, The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) will be holding a fundraising event for Palestine at 1501 Cherry St. Philadelphia.
RSVP to join us on December 16.
Hi All,
I hope that you are well. As I think you all know, AFSC is working with Pendle Hill to organize a conference on Palestine next month. AFSC’s staff from Palestine and Israel will be in Philadelphia for that conference, and we have therefore decided to hold a fundraiser and meet and greet with the staff. The event will be held at Friends Center on Sunday, December 16th from 5:00 to 7:30 pm.
We are sending out the email below later this week, but I wanted to make sure to invite all of you to this event.
One of our Gaza staff was able to leave Gaza yesterday and will be on his way to the US later this week. We also received notice today that our other team member from Gaza has received his permit to travel next week, so assuming that holds our whole Palestine and Israel team will be here for the fundraiser and conference next month.
In addition to hoping to see you at the event, we would appreciate any help you can provide with sharing information about this event.
I look forward to seeing some of you at the conference, hope others can attend this event, and thanks for your continued support.
Mike Merryman-Lotze
Middle East Program Director, AFSC
