Fundraiser Dinner for Gaza Community Mental Health Programme

  • Multnomah Friends Meeting House 4312 Southeast Stark Street Portland, Oregon, 97215 United States (map)

Join us for a delicious dinner catered by Hoda’s restaurant! Featuring a special presentation via Zoom from Dr. Yasser Abu-Jamei, Palestinian psychiatrist and Director of GCMHP since 2014.

The people of Gaza continue to face extraordinary challenges as the genocide continues. Founded in 1990, GCMHP is the leading Palestinian organization dedicated to mental health care in Gaza. Even after their clinics were destroyed, GCMHP counselors have continued their work—offering therapy, psychological first aid, and crisis support to tens of thousands of people, often from tents and temporary shelters.

We are suggesting each person pay $35 to cover the cost of the meal and event expenses. Attendees are welcome to contribute more or less based on their financial circumstances. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Accessibility: The venue and restrooms are fully accessible. Since we will be eating, we are not making masks mandatory.
