DEAR GAZA 2016

October 2, 2016 @ 3:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Join us for the second annual DEAR GAZA block party on Sunday October 2nd! Meet us on the street between W 24th & Lyndale Ave S – W 24th & Garfield Ave S

Every year, Minnesotans from all walks of life gather to stand in solidarity, witness art, and fundraise for the plight of Gaza.

DEAR GAZA is an inspiring artist showcase and fundraiser that pursues aid-funding for the ongoing plight of the Gaza strip. The evening will host spoken word poetry, dance, art, interactivities, live music, and more from conscious artists in solidarity with the Gaza strip.

Last year, thanks to local humanitarians like you, we were able to raise $20,000 for Gaza. This initial investment was then turned into 1.3 million Dollars worth of medical supplies by America Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) through their In-Kind Medical & Relief Program, which delivers critical, donated medical supplies and health care equipment to the people of Gaza.
