Penny Appeal Canada Unity for Palestine: A Conversation on Justice and Healing

Join Penny Appeal Canada for an unforgettable evening of solidarity, insight, and action as we come together to support justice and healing for Palestine.

Gaza is enduring one of the gravest humanitarian catastrophes of our time. Since October 2023, more than 50,000 Palestinians have been killed and over 125,000 injured, with the majority of Gaza’s 2.1 million residents displaced and struggling to survive. Over 90% of homes are damaged or destroyed, hospitals are overwhelmed, and three-quarters of the population faces catastrophic food insecurity. Children and families are suffering at unimaginable levels. The world’s attention and action are urgently needed.

Hear from two of the world’s most respected voices for justice, deepen your understanding of the crisis, and stand in solidarity with Palestinians at a time when your support is needed most. Every ticket helps amplify the call for justice and bring life saving relief to the Gaza Strip.

Reserve your seat now. Seating is limited.

There will be a live fundraiser before dinner. Money raised will go towards Penny Appeal Canada’s international humanitarian projects.
