We excited to announce that we have become a vetted Community Partner within GlobalGiving global network. We are immensely grateful that we are now partners with their disaster response team. The disaster team has also expressed their gratitude for our team's work serving communities in Gaza. 

GlobalGiving has awarded VCS Academy an emergency grant of US $10,000 from their Israel-Palestine Crisis Relief Fund for our critical work supporting communities across Gaza. These funds can be used flexibly to support all programmatic and operational costs related to all affected communities. We are forwarding the funds to Medical Points points projects in Gaza to support their direct costs in providing essential medical care for displaced Palestinians in Gaza. Please consider to contribute to the project with either time or money if you're able to afford it on https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/provide-medical-care-for-displaced-palestinians/ 

We will ensure to keep this space updated with news from our network and from our local community partners and community projects in Gaza. Follow us and stay tuned for future updates. Please SHARE! SHARE! SHARE! spread the word as much as you can, and support our community project teams. 

Please note: the programme management team at VCS Academy has decided to waive our onboarding and fiscal hosting fees for any community projects working to support communities in conflict-torn countries. You will still get the same level of support as any paying sponsored project.
