An iconic peace message from young Palestinians



Hundreds of UNRWA students and world-renowned artist, John Quigley, recreate Picasso's famous 'Peace Dove' image in Jericho.


Quigley explains his motivation, "This is a mirror image of Picasso's famous 'Peace Dove'. Palestinian youth are sending the message to 'love one another' and 'love all' so we can find a path to peace." Check out more inspiring videos at Peace Starts Here.

One AFU supporter proves it doesn’t take much to make a big impact


Shannon Fuhr


This holiday season, Shannon Fuhr, an AFU supporter, wanted to give her loved ones a gift that would leave a lasting impact. Her contribution in honor of her friends and family to AFU’s Olive Tree Initiative did just that. Shannon says:

“By splitting my $500 donation into individual certificates, I was able to provide 25 loved ones with the most meaningful gifts I have ever given, while staying within my budget.”

“Thank you, Friends of UNRWA, for empowering me with the opportunity to contribute to the empowerment of others.”
