Why We Run

Iqraa is partnered with United Palestinian Appeal, a 501(C)3 charity founded in 1978 to support the education of Palestinian children. UPA works with local schools, orphanages, vocational training centers and universities in an effort to strengthen the Palestinian education system. In 2008, Iqraa provided UPA with $33,900 in funds to renovate five kindergartens in Gaza and to support three university students with scholarships.
