**The Palestinian Family Relief Fund (PFRF) was founded in January 2009 during the military conflict inside the Gaza strip area of Palestine. Located in Monterey County, California, the PFRF was set up to provide not only relief for Palestinian Families, but to be pro-active in getting food and supplies inside of Palestine.
A delegation of PFRF leaders are planning to fly to Palestine and to personally organize the relief effort. In this way, the organization can control where the donations are spent, and to develop their own contacts with local humanitarian groups and residents.
The PCRF believes that much of the relief supplies are not getting through to the average Palestinian, that both government and private efforts are being hamstrung by red-tape and administrative costs. Moreover, we have people who were born in the region and speak the language, making it possible to get the supplies directly to those who need them.

We desperately need your donation to provide relief funding to Palestinian children and their families in the Gaza strip. Moreover, we want to send a small American delegation to Palestine to organize our relief efforts and make contract with the local people. We can only do this with your generous help.
Another project we want to do is to take photos of the neediest Palestinian
children and personalize their plight. We can help them by getting Americans to
adopt these children, especially those without families. We want to start a
program where American donators pledge $1 a day to the children who have nowhere
else to turn.
