Urgent Aid for Palestinian Students in US
Dear friends, supporters, and advocates for justice,
In the face of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza Strip and the Occupied Palestinian Territories, we are reaching out to you with a heartfelt plea to support Palestinian students who are studying in the United States.
Urgency
The ongoing siege and harsh realities of war have left many Palestinian families in crisis, with homes destroyed, lives upended, and the constant threat of violence looming. Families in Gaza Strip and the West Bank are experiencing ethnic cleansing and genocide, which inevitably shifts their energy and use of resources towards survival. As a result, Palestinian students currently studying in the US are left without the financial resources to remain enrolled in school and meet their basic needs. The harsh reality is that if students pause their academic pursuit to support their families, grieve, and deal with this ongoing crisis, then their educational visas may be challenged.
