Stride for Palestinians
15 May 2024 - 15 June 2024
Our Stride series is BACK!
This 31 Day challenge begins on May 15th, commemorating Nakba Day, and will take you on a journey starting in the refugee camps of Lebanon and ending in Rafah, Gaza.
Show your solidarity with the Palestinians by walking, running, jogging, cycling, or pushing through 150km in your local area to raise funds for lifesaving medical aid, equipment and other vital supplies.
What is the Nakba?
Between 1947 and 1949, at least 750,000 Palestinians were expelled from or fled their homes in historic Palestine during violent events related to the creation of the state of Israel. This upheaval, known to Palestinians as the Nakba (“Catastrophe”), heralded decades of displacement, dispossession and marginalisation.
