Thanks for dropping by!
We're Students of the American University in Dubai who sincerely wish to make a difference in the lives of the less fortunate Palestinian youth. We are aiming to raise awareness about PACES and encourage funding of this charity organization. By achieving the previous goal, more children will be provided with sports gears and qualified mentors to guide and teach them sports.
By doing so, empowerment is surely gained and these children are ready to stand up for what they believe in through sports. Not only that, PACES also, empowers skilled coaches, by offering them job opportunities to make a living while also making a difference.
In addition, PACES works on raising awareness among these
young Palestinians about the damages of smoking and drugs, encouraging them to
lead healthy lifestyles and succeed as individuals.
In times like these where Israeli efforts are
made to ban athletes from competing internationally, we realize how important
it is to gather & support PACES. A charity that encourages healthy and
peaceful resistance to prove existence.. through sports.
For these mentioned reasons, we would greatly
appreciate it if you take the time to show us some support by donating and/or
sharing our cause on your personal social media platforms.
Our time is up and we thank you for yours!
Stay Tuned!
