Trauma & Pediatric Care for Palestinian Refugees
We are raising funds to support new programs in trauma & pediatric care. Through them we aim to build a new health infrastructure among some of the hardest hit communities in the West Bank. Working through our 3 partners in 5 camps, we will advance new levels of healing for needy families. Find out more & join the campaign by clicking on the button.
The people in the picture with backpacks are trained Community Health Workers (CHWs). They are part of our Health 4 Palestine program. When this picture was taken, about one week ago in the UN-refugee camp Tulkarm in the northern West Bank, they were helping to evacuate women, children & the elderly.
About Health 4 Palestine.
Since 2017, Health 4 Palestine (H4P) has provided community-based healthcare services in West Bank Palestinian refugee camps. Care focuses on chronic disease management & psychosocial support . To expand its impact we are launching 2 initiatives. 1. Train & support Community Health Workers to provide trauma care. 2. Launch a Pediatric Care Initiative to address critical gaps in maternal & child healthcare. With adequate funding & community engagement, these initiatives can create lasting improvements in adult & child health.

Health
Health 4 Palestine (H4P) is our program that supports community health. In it, 26 trained community health workers (CHWs) work in 5 camps with over 700 patients. Most care focuses on treating chronic diseases & trauma.
Environment Food
Our work in food encompasses the construction & operation of three community hydroponic gardens & a number of micro growing towers. We provide training in hydroponics. Women & young people make up the core participants in our food work. Our goal is to advance Palestinian food sovereignty & support healthy lifestyles.
Environment Water
We established potable water quality monitoring programs, built two community cisterns, replaced 30 rooftop water tanks to safeguard household water supplies & trained refugees to conduct independent water testing that resulted in upgraded infrastructure improvements. We also led four delegations to build water testing labs & train testing technicians.
Education
Zahrat Al-Yasmeen kindergarten.
Since 2019, 1for3 has brought together Palestinian & US educators to support child-focused learning. Together, they build curricula, teaching methods & new offerings of student support. Opened in 2021 & located in the UN-run Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem, West Bank, Zahrat Al-Yasmeen kindergarten provides a great pre-school education for 50 children from two UN-run camps.
