Cycling4Gaza is an independent initiative founded in the wake of the 2009 war on Gaza. Our mission is to raise funds for non-profit organisations that provide critical educational and health support to vulnerable Palestinian communities.
Why? For the children of Gaza.
There are an esitmated 373,000 children in Gaza who are in desperate need of psycho-social support after the 2014 war. With the ongoing strain on health resources, mental issues are often sidelined.

To raise awareness and funds, Cycling4Gaza #C4G2015 will support the Palestine Children's Relief Fund's (PCRF) Pediatric Mental Health Project in Gaza.
The goal is to:
- Assess children’s needs through mental health screanings
- Provide them the clinical services they require
- Train social workers in Gaza to further develop and sustain the project
How? We need to raise 286,000 USD to support the launch and running of the project for one year.
How Can You Help? Donate to help us reach our goal and support this cause. Every dollar counts and WILL make a difference.
If you donate please drop us a note with your name to let us know, we would like to thank you personally.

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.
