PROJECTS
Support Palestinians
Cassandra Dixon is a member of Palestine Partners and the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project. She has traveled to Palestine many times over the past twenty years and is currently in a farming community in the West Bank. In her reports, Cassandra highlights the severe injustices faced by Palestinian farmers.
At a time when humanity longs for Peace and Light, these requests from Cassandra offer hope and survival.
Help Plant an Olive Grove
Israeli law permits the confiscation of land as “state land” if the landowner cannot demonstrate its agricultural use. Planting trees replaces the over one million trees destroyed by settlers and provides proof of cultivation to assist farmers in retaining their land.
Consider sponsoring one or more trees for $24 each.
Mail a check to Palestine Partners, PO Box 8414, Madison, WI 53708
Credit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay using Square payment.

Help Replace the Sheep
Heavily armed settlers are grazing their sheep on land that Palestinian shepherds have cultivated. When the Palestinian shepherds attempt to graze their sheep on their own land, they are assaulted by settlers, who steal the sheep and add them to their own herds. Sheep are crucial for the livelihoods of these farmers.
Consider a donation to help Replace the Sheep.
Either of these projects would make a huge difference. Please consider contributing to one or both of these humanitarian projects.
