So as you might have guessed I'm doing it again- I'm cycling for the children of Gaza. This time I’m cycling for 300km over 3 days from Amsterdam to Hague in the Netherlands from 23rd to 25th of July.
Why I’m doing it again?
Cycling4Gaza is a fantastic opportunity to raise money for a cause that we all deeply care about ‘Children of Palestine’. There's no doubt that the need is huge, this year Cycling4Gaza will support PCRF’s newly launched Pediatric Mental Health Project in Gaza. Unicef estimates 373,000 children in Gaza are in desperate need of psycho-social support. Given the continuous strain on health resources, mental health issues are often sidelined, leaving thousands of children without appropriate medical attention to heal their traumas and mental scars.
What can you do to help?
Well, in short, I want your money. I want you to give me the motivation to get out in the heat of Dubai to train for this challenge. I want you to help me hit my target. I have to raise $4000. I want you to donate, sponsor me, support me. Help me help children who aren't as lucky as your children.
Remember that no donation is too small, every dollar counts…
Thank you for your compassionate support.

The PCRF is a non-profit organization that predominantly provides medical relief for children under Israeli military occupation. It is the main organization in the region that sends injured children abroad for free medical care and brings in expert volunteer surgery teams to provide medical care and training for local medical personnel. Over 1,000 children have been sent to the US for free medical care and over 10,000 children have received local medical care from visiting surgery teams.
The 2014 war on Gaza left thousands of children injured not only physically but also psychologically. Today, approximately 373,000 children in Gaza suffer from emotional and psychological trauma and are in dire need of mental care support and reintegration into society.
The objective of the Gaza Mental Health Project is to assess children’s needs, provide them the service they require and to train social workers on administering screening questionnaires. Over 1,300 children have been screened by 5 field workers to date and their subsequent programs are currently being developed.
