The first donation will be dedicated to preserve the Arab-Islamic identity of the city and to strengthen basic services for the Palestinian areas. The second aims to support the education programme in the Gaza Strip through UNRWA schools and preserve the rights of Palestinian students in education. UNRWA has a financial deficit in its programs and operational projects for Palestine refugees.
