Saint Hildegard’s legacy calls us not only to tend the earth, but also to stand with the vulnerable, to bring care where there is suffering, and to let our love flow across boundaries. In her honor, Blessed Maine Herb Farm, Motherhearts, and all who gather for Saint Hildegard Day invite you to join us in making a generous collective donation to the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund.

Together, may our offering embody Hildegard’s vision of viriditas — the greening force of compassion that heals, nourishes, and restores life wherever it is most needed.

The PCRF is a legally-registered non-political, non-profit, 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization established in 1991 by concerned people to address the medical and humanitarian needs of Palestinian and Arab youths in the Middle East. We have provided thousands of children life-saving care based on their need, not on religion, gender, nationality or sect.

The main objective of the PCRF is to identify and treat every child in the Middle East in need of specialized surgery not available to them locally. We locate, sponsor and run international, volunteer medical missions to the Middle East, in additional to locating free medical care abroad for children who cannot be adequately treated in the Middle East. The PCRF  is the main organization regularly sending injured and sick Arab children to North and South America, the Middle East and Europe for free care that is not available to them there. Since 1991 over 1,000 children have been abroad for millions of dollars of donated care, and over 10,000 have had complex surgery by our visiting medical missions to the region. The PCRF has been awarded the top 4-star rating by Charity Navigator for fiscal management, while being able to treat more kids than any other charity in the Middle East.
