We plan to break the siege of Gaza and deliver much needed humanitarian aid by joining the Viva Palestina Convoy. We intend to leave on October 4th from the UK, and then travel through Europe, Turkey, Syria, Jordan and then into Egypt and through the Rafah border. Total distance will be about 4,000 miles, and will take about 16 days driving approximately . The first Viva Palestina Convoy took place in February 2009 and crossed into Gaza with over 100 vehicles and more than €1 million in aid.
Already we have one ambulance to drive to Gaza and give to the people there and plan to have more by October, we now need to raise funds for medical supplies to donate as well as for the cost of getting the vehicles there. Everyone working to make this happen is a volunteer and all money raised goes directly to the vehicles, medical supplies and getting them to Gaza.
