Help Save Lives in Gaza and the West Bank
Join us in co-creating a nonviolent response to stop the violence and stand with our Palestinian brothers and sisters. There are hundreds of unarmed civilian protection & accompaniment veterans in the world who can be mobilized to go to Palestine. They have experience carrying out nonviolent protective activities in areas of violent conflict throughout the world.
Your donation is needed to deploy 100 veteran unarmed civilian protectors/accompaniers from multiple countries to Palestine. The trained protectors will work directly with Palestinian partner organizations to increase self-protection capabilities and improve community safety in Gaza and the West Bank.

NNIA has about 29 member organizations, mostly faith based and mainly in Montgomery County, MD. NNIA works with refugees new to this area and help them become "self-sufficient" and productive members of their new community as quickly as possible.
NNIA provides a full range of services including, but not limited to, finding housing and employment, enrolling children in school and adults in ESL programs and providing individual English tutors, providing donated used but workable cars, etc.. We help them cover their expenses, when needed, while they gain enough employment to take care of their family by themselves.
Please support our activities in the DC and Baltimore region. In the past year, our funds have supported refugees arriving in our area, gun violence prevention, and training young people to resolve differences through peaceful means at Little Friends for Peace.
