Medical Aid for Palestinians

Why we’re running

In April, we’re travelling to Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank to take part in the Palestine Marathon. Sam will be running the full marathon, and Sabrina will be running the half marathon.

Neither of us have ever run these distances before or anything close. We've both done our first ever 10ks in the last six months so this is a bit of a challenge

The Palestine Marathon is an act of resistance in the cause of freedom of movement across the territory. The route we’ll be running has to fit within severe restrictions, checkpoints and barriers that shape everyday life in the West Bank.

The marathon has been cancelled in recent years due to the genocide in Gaza and escalating violence and repression across the West Bank. We’re going this year to see, listen, and learn first-hand from the Palestinian people, and to show solidarity in a practical way.

Why we’re fundraising

We’re raising money for Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP), a charity providing essential healthcare services in Gaza, the West Bank and refugee communities.

MAP supports hospitals, clinics and medical staff working under impossible conditions - shortages of equipment, restrictions on movement, and sustained attacks on health infrastructure.

Thank you for visiting this page and considering a donation!!!

With our new album, we decided to take the control back and release it independently. As a result - for the first time in years - we can choose where the money goes.

For this first single - Pick a Side - we are choosing for it to go to 'Medical Aid for Palestinians'. They provide direct 'boots-on -the-ground' aid in Palestine and Lebanon, providing medical aid as emergency assistance where facilities have been destroyed, rebuilding infrastructure and training medical staff.

As a side (but very important to us) note, they also have a very good 'proportion of funds raised' that goes directly to helping those in the region, with 80p of every £1 going to the direct work, 12p going to fundraising and the 8p left going towards the organisational costs of the charity. Also, nobody at the charity earns more than £90k a year, which is a damn sight better than some larger 'more reputable' charities. Every penny that comes through this fundraiser will go directly to the charity.

We have also checked that they are up to date with their reporting to the charity commission of England and Wales.

If you can spare a quid, please chuck it in the donation pot. Regardless of what you currently think, nowhere in the world do schools, hospitals and innocent people deserve to be bombed. Throughout every conflict those that deliver aid, that save lives, regardless of their backgrounds, deserve as much support as possible.

We might not be able to do much with our music, but we can do this.

Donate today if you can.

My name is Zara, and I want to do something meaningful just in time for Ramadan. I am from the UK and the same as everyone else. I’ve been watching innocent individuals suffering.

I want to help them in the most effective way possible. Which is why every donation made to this fund raiser will go directly to MAP- medical aid for Palestine in need.

They work primarily in Palestine delivering medical supplies, emergency healthcare, and long term medical support to those affected by conflict and humanitarian crisis.

my relationship to MAP:

I don’t have any personal or professional relationship with MAP. I chose to support this organisation because their work directly helps innocent people who are suffering and in urgent need of medical care.

how the fund will be spent:

All funds raised through this campaign will be donated directly to Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) via GoFundMe. The funds will be used to support their medical and humanitarian programs, including emergency healthcare, essential medical supplies, and life-saving aid. No funds will be used for personal purposes

Thank you sincerely to everyone who donates, shares, and supports this campaign. Your generosity, no matter how small, truly makes a difference and is deeply appreciated.

My name is Maya and I am someone who cannot stand by and do nothing while families in Palestine face unimaginable hardship. I’m from the UK, and like many people around the world, I’ve been watching innocent men, women, and especially children suffering through conditions no one should ever have to experience. Yet even in the middle of such pain, their faith remains unshakeable. They continue to hold the strongest trust in Allah, showing patience, strength, and hope that inspires me deeply.

I want to help support them in the most honest, transparent, and effective way possible. That’s why every donation from this fundraiser will go directly to MAP – Medical Aid for Palestinians, a trusted and well-established humanitarian organisation providing life-saving medical care and emergency support. MAP is based in the UK and works on the ground in Palestine, delivering:

• Emergency medical care

• Clean water and essential supplies

• Support for hospitals and clinics

• Aid for children and families who have lost everything

How the funds will be used:

All funds raised through this GoFundMe will be transferred directly to MAP to support their ongoing emergency response. They are a registered charity with teams already providing medical treatment, supplies, and humanitarian relief.

My relationship to MAP:

I am not directly connected to MAP, but I chose them because they are a well-known, reputable, and transparent charity with a strong history of helping Palestinian families in crisis.

Even the smallest donation can ease someone’s suffering — a meal, clean water, urgent medical care, a safe space to rest. And if you’re unable to donate, sharing this page is still a form of sadaqah and can reach someone who can help.

Thank you for standing with compassion, for supporting vulnerable families, and for helping bring hope to those who are still holding onto their faith so beautifully. May Allah reward your kindness and ease the suffering of every innocent soul.

Hi, my name is Mehnaz and I am completing a walk to the local hospital (Queen Elizabeth). This is to raise funds to send to Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP).

MAP has been working with Palestinian communities, to deliver locally-led health and medical care to those worst affected by conflict, occupation and displacement.

They have offices in the West Bank, Gaza, Jerusalem, Lebanon and London. With the extensive local knowledge and experience, they work closely with communities, hospitals, clinics and healthcare providers to coordinate care and medical aid even where there are severe restrictions on access.

The walk from my house to Queen Elizabeth Hospital is 5 miles away, and according to Google Maps should take 1 hour and 53 minutes by walking.

If you personally know me then you will know that it will take me a lot longer than that to complete the walk, and I know that I would not be able to survive even an hour in Gaza given the circumstances that are currently taking place. This is the very least that I could do in trying to get the people of Gaza the medical assistance that they so badly need.

Please consider donating, however small the amount may be.

The date of the walk has not yet been confirmed

I am running my first ever Marathon in the beautiful city of Rome, raising money for Medical Aid for Palestinians. I have been running for years, completing my first half marathon in Victoria Park last December; it has done and continues to do wonders for my mental and physical health as well as becoming a real source of unity and friendship.

This test of endurance doesn’t even amount to what the strong-willed people of Palestine have had to endure, with mass bombardments of violence and destruction by the Israeli government, alongside with mass famine and displacement.

I am running this marathon in solidarity and support with all the innocent civilians in Gaza who continue to endure the effects of this genocide and their entire livelihoods being destroyed, as well as the tens of thousands of lives that have been lost. The complicity, inaction and disdain of the Western World, including the UK, towards the people in Gaza is a real source of distress.

The status of a “ceasefire” within Gaza only heightens the importance of donating, as now aid programmes can be adapted, scaled up and innocent civilians within Gaza can receive the urgent medical care they need, on top of bare necessities such as food and shelter during these winter months.

Please consider donating to an important cause supporting the lives of people in crucial need of aid, as well as a milestone in my own life. Thank you!

Welcome fans!

We are bee and Feyza, two besties living in our twenties wondering what we can do to support those who are unfairly suffering across the world. If you are wondering what you can do to help please follow along our climb up snowdon in may 2026 to raise money for Gaza and Sudan.

Sudan is going through one of the most devastating humanitarian crises in the world right now. Millions have been forced to flee their homes. Food, medicine, and clean water are running out. And in the middle of this catastrophe, women and girls are facing horrific levels of sexual violence, including rape used as a weapon of war.

These are not isolated incidents. They are widespread, systematic, and targeting some of the most vulnerable people in the country. Survivors are left with trauma, injuries, no access to medical care, and nowhere safe to go.

we will be donating money to an organisation called Green Kordofan. Green Kordofan is a charity that supports thousands that have been forced to flee the civil war in Sudan and are now living in refugee camps in South Sudan. This charity supports children by providing programmes to build confidence and self esteem and life beyond the refugee camp.

Green Kordofan

In Gaza, families who once lived ordinary lives are now crowded into shelters or sleeping in the open hungry, exhausted, and terrified of what each new day might bring. Parents are trying to stay strong for their children while carrying unimaginable grief. Entire neighbourhoods have been destroyed, leaving people with nothing but memories of what their lives used to be. Children are carrying the body parts of their families with nowhere to take their loved ones. Imagine having to lay your family’s body to rest in rubble. With almost no food, limited clean water, and hospitals struggling to function, every day has become a fight just to survive.

We speak of war from behind screens. They speak of it through rubble, blood, and tears. The pictures we flinch at and look away from are their daily reality. The stories we repost are their homes. we will be donating to medical aid for Palestine. MAP aims to provide healthcare to everyone in Palestine supporting as many people as possible.

Medical aid for Palestine

Every contribution, no matter how small, brings hope and light in these dark times. We are their only hope. Please stand with us and be the reason humanity rises again.

We’re lucky, not better.

Free Palestine. Free Sudan. ❤️

This year, a percentage of sales from Uist Arts Association’s winter show will benefit Medical Aid for Palestinians. The theme of the show this year is Peace, so this charity seemed the perfect choice. Artists can donate a percentage of their sales here, and any donations from visitors will be gratefully accepted too.
