Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Nonpolitical humanitarian relief focused on healthcare for children in Palestine.

  • Humanitarian Services - Our Humanitarian Services programs provide essential support to children and communities in need, impacting thousands across Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Jordan. In 2023, these efforts reached 2,861 vulnerable children through targeted initiatives like the One-Time Medical and Surgical Sponsorship, Orphans Sponsorship, and Monthly Sponsorship, ensuring underserved children receive critical care. Additionally, we implemented 126 urgent relief projects, delivering thousands of items such as hygiene materials, nutrition support, and medical supplies. To further support sustainable development, 25 Small Community Projects were launched, equipping clinics and establishing sensory rooms in underserved areas to enhance local healthcare services.

    Expenses $20,689,231

  • Capital Projects - In 2023, we implemented 31 infrastructure projects aimed at strengthening the public health sector through strategic improvements to existing healthcare facilities. These projects included the construction and expansion of key healthcare units, such as Pediatric Cardiology Departments, Emergency Centers, and Vaccination Centers, as well as the equipping of Emergency Rooms with heavy medical equipment.

    Expenses $2,268,371

  • Medical Missions - Our Medical Missions Program brings volunteer medical teams from around the world to provide critical care to children in local hospitals. In 2023, 1074 children were treated in 93 missions. The missions offer specialized services like pediatric cardiac surgery, orthopedics, neurosurgery, dental care, and more, along with training initiatives to empower local healthcare providers to deliver enhanced care.

    Expenses $641,379

  • Withheld by Nonprofiteer: this text may name a private individual.

    Expenses $539,334

  • Patient Affairs - Through our commitment to providing specialized medical support, we facilitate access to advanced healthcare abroad for children who cannot receive adequate treatment locally. In 2023, our Patient Affairs program enabled three children to receive life-saving medical care, covering all travel and treatment expenses to ensure they received the urgent care they required.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
