Ramadan Iftar Project for 500 Families in the West Bank, Palestine 2012

According to Palestinian statistics (2012), the majority of Palestinian families classified as hardship cases, which have a lot of economics problems, and living on the very limited support from the UNRWA and Sadagat, they hardly get their daily food.

The majority of the Palestinians have uprooted from twenty cities and about four hundred villages; about seven hundred thousand Palestinians i.e. 66% of the residents of Palestine became homeless; this represented the complete deterioration of the Palestinian society with all its components and bases; it lead to a very miserable situation in the Palestinian society in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

Palestinians have a daily suffering under the occupation, taken into consideration the miserable conditions they are living: the daily killing, injured, jailed, the separation wall, the unemployment which reach up to 45%.
