Story
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. We sisters share the belief that every child deserves a joyful and secure childhood. Growing up, we were fortunate to experience safety, play-filled days and the comfort of knowing we would be safely tucked up in bed each night. Children in Gaza have been brutally denied these basic rights.
Palestine Play Projects offers hope in these challenging times. They support incredible initiatives like Child Smile in Gaza, which offers psycho-social support through play, creativity and drama. Despite facing displacement, hunger and trauma, the dedicated Palestinian team creates spaces where children can experience moments of laughter and joy.
As the Child Smile team puts it: "We work amidst the rubble—not just the physical, but the emotional wreckage as well. And despite everything, we continue searching for what is beautiful..."
On 9 May 2026, we will be participating in a sunrise walk around Arthur's Seat—an iconic Edinburgh landmark—to raise funds for Palestine Play Projects. Our goal is to raise £450 to help bring light and hope to children who need it most.
We invite you to join us in making a difference. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and completely secure; your details are safe and your contribution goes directly to the charity without delay or extra cost. Together, we can help bring some happiness and healing through the power of play.
