UNRWA USA is partnering with Right To Movement Palestine to bring a group of runners and refugees from Palestine to relay 250 miles down the East Coast to deliver a message that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) needs America’s investment.

The Relay Run for Refugees, also known as the #runofthecentury, will begin at the start of the UN General Assembly and the runners will make stops along the East Coast to share stories at community events hosted by like-minded partners and collect support for UNRWA’s humanitarian programs and services for Palestine refugees in the Middle East.

Join us at the Pennsylvania stop on Sunday, September 22, 2019, at 6 pm, for an evening of refugee stories and community conversations hosted by the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC).
