Giving Tuesday 2025
If you follow us on Instagram, you’ll have seen postings of our activities in Gaza over the past two years. Since early 2024, we have diverted all of our resources to Gaza’s children, to help them not only survive, but to thrive despite the enormous deprivations.
We have now established two schools, one in Gaza City and one in Deir el Balah. The Phoenix School was our first, with multiple start and stops due to ongoing bombings. But it is finally re-established in Gaza City and running for the second year in a row, with approximately 200 students. Our second school, established in August at the start of the new school year, is operating successfully in Deir el Balah, serving approximately 300 students.
To see photos and videos from our schools, click here (Modern Childhood), and here (Phoenix).
The purposeful decimation of Palestinian society in Gaza is grave and incomprehensible. But we are doing all we can, and we are making a difference in the lives of the children whom we’re able to serve.
On this #GivingTuesday, a global generosity movement on December 2nd, we ask that you support our students by donating to Playgrounds for Palestine.
We remain an all-volunteer run organization. None of us in the US receive any compensation whatsoever and only our staff in Palestine are paid. It is for this reason that we sometimes are not as communicative as we’d like to be. However, if you have an interest in volunteering to help us on this front, please let us know. In the meantime…
Start 2026 strong with us!
Ways you can give:

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to manufacturing love in a loveless world with you.
With Love (always love),
PfP
