Story
Our dear friend and sister Nawal Gassan Salameh has recently lost her beloved husband Akram. He died in hospital from tear gas inhalation after trying to diffuse a situation involving some youths at the village check point.
This has come as a great shock, everyone who met Akram will remember him as a strong and silent type, but with a great sense of humour, also, that he was a very devoted loving father and husband. He was Nawal's number 1 supporter and the strength behind her which kept her going in her work. Nawal is now a widow with their 3 children, daughters Jaffa and Haifa and son, Gassan to support.
Nawal worked tirelessly for Women in Hebron, promoting the cause of women and for them to be able to contribute to their local society and community, a whole village of women relied on her for work, now Nawal needs support in her time of mourning and grief.
I am starting this page for friends of Nawal to share her burden and support her in this time of need. Nawal had no salary from Women in Hebron and was financially supported by her husband. Unfortunately due to issues beyond her control, financial support to the family now is on hold until some time next year. Nawal is in deep shock and grief, overwhelmed as you can imagine, so if we can help at least to some extent, to keep the family going financially until things can be sorted out that would help her enormously, please give what you can to our dear sister, and keep her and the children in your thoughts.
