Mission

Since 1968, Anera has helped refugees and others hurt by conflicts in the Middle East live with dignity and purpose. Anera, which has no political or religious affiliation, works on the ground with partners in Palestine (West Bank and Gaza), Lebanon and Jordan. We mobilize resources for immediate emergency relief and for sustainable, long-term health, education, and economic development. Our staff serve in their communities, navigating the politics that constrict progress to get help where it’s needed most. That’s how Anera delivered $176 million in programs in 2024 alone, and it’s how we will keep building better lives until hope finds its way in the Middle East.
    I love the movies, and I love Dune. But every time i get to the part in Dune 2 where the Harkonnens bomb Fremen civilians in their sietches, I can’t help but look at this staged atrocity and see the parallels to the humanitarian crisis in Palestine and the region. Wanting to make my love of Dune mean something, I encourage all fans to donate enough to buy “one extra ticket” for those who need aid. This fundraiser goes to ANERA, their info is below.

    My name is Claire Walker and I care deeply about families impacted by conflict. I have seen how violence and displacement tear lives apart, and I want to stand with people who are struggling to find safety, food, and care. That is why I am raising support for American Near East Refugee Aid, an organization I trust to deliver urgent help where it is needed most. Anera has been on the ground since 1968, working in Palestine, Lebanon, and Jordan to provide immediate relief and long-term support. Since October 2023 their teams have provided millions of meals, millions of gallons of clean water, and hundreds of thousands of free medical consultations. They also deliver education, psychosocial support, and shelter so families can begin to heal and rebuild their lives. When families have a hot meal, clean water, and medical care, it changes everything. These basic needs restore dignity and create space for hope. Anera’s staff and partners live in the communities they serve and navigate difficult conditions to get help to people who need it now. Please join me in supporting Anera’s lifesaving work. Your donation will help deliver meals, water, health services, and protection to families who have lost so much. Give what you can and stand with families working to survive and rebuild.
