Dear friends and community members,
Can you contribute to our fundraising dinner to support urgent humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza?
We are a Nelson, BC based, group of community volunteers who are organizing a fundraising dinner, which will occur on Friday November 24, 2023 at the Nelson United Church.This is a non-violent and anti-racist event to promote peace, love, andunderstanding. The event will include a dinner, music, and speech/video about humanitarian work in Gaza.
We hope to raise a significant amount of funds. Along with the restrictions placed on water, food, electricity, and fuel, Gaza is also experiencing a dire shortage of medical supplies. There have been reports of hospitals running out of medical grade sterile solutions, instead having to use vinegar to treat wounded people, and doctors have also been forced to operate on patients without local anesthesia or painkillers.
To know more about MSF work, please visit doctorswithoutborders.ca. A tax-deductible receipt will be issued for your donation.

Your generosity allows MSF teams to continue saving lives by delivering urgent care to people made vulnerable by disaster, conflict, disease or exclusion from healthcare. Thank you for your support!
