What the charity does

We support the work of the Parents Circle-Families Forum (PC-FF), a joint Israeli-Palestinian organisation comprising families who have been bereaved as a result of the ongoing conflict. Despite their profound losses, these families reject revenge and violence, choosing instead to advocate dialogue and reconciliation. We raise awareness and funds to support PC-FF in their work.
