Al-Makassed Hospital is a charitable institution offering medical services to all Palestinian citizens in the West Bank and Gaza. It is also one of the last remaining Palestinian institutional symbols in East Jerusalem. The hospital’s dedicated 675+ staff treats tens of thousands of people throughout Palestine and trains over 100 new doctors every year.
The Hospital is the main referral and teaching hospital in Palestine, providing advanced care in many specialties including Emergency, Neo-natal & Paediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Orthopaedics, General Surgery, Cardiac & Pulmonary Medicine/Surgery among others.
Located on the beautiful Mount of Olives and overlooking the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the Dome of the Rock and the Church of Holy Sepulchre in the Old City of Jerusalem, Al-Makassed faces a unique set of challenges. Israeli measures in East Jerusalem (which is internationally and legally recognised as an integral part of Palestine but which is currently under occupation by Israel) are making life incredibly difficult for the Muslim and Christian population of Palestine and for those institutions looking after the people, attempting to fulfil their most basic human rights.
Israeli measures threatening the hospital include: Control of costs and referral of Palestinian patients, imposition of high municipal and income taxes, prohibition of the use of relatively cheaper Palestinian pharmaceuticals produced elsewhere in the West Bank, and the imposition of severe movement and access restrictions on patients and staff.
The hospital is currently facing a severe financial crisis which is limiting its ability to provide health and humanitarian services and endangering the very future of the hospital. This is why we need your help.

WE PROVIDE ASSISTANCE AND PROTECTION FOR SOME 5 MILLION REGISTERED PALESTINE REFUGEES TO HELP THEM ACHIEVE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is funded almost entirely by voluntary contributions from UN Member States. UNRWA also receives some funding from the Regular Budget of the United Nations, which is used mostly for international staffing costs.
The Agency’s services encompass education, health care, relief and social services, camp infrastructure and improvement, microfinance and emergency assistance, including in times of armed conflict.
ESTABLISHMENT
Following the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict, UNRWA was established by United Nations General Assembly resolution 302 (IV) of 8 December 1949 to carry out direct relief and works programmes for Palestine refugees. The Agency began operations on 1 May 1950.
In the absence of a solution to the Palestine refugee problem, the General Assembly has repeatedly renewed UNRWA's mandate, most recently extending it until 30 June 2017.
PALESTINE REFUGEES
UNRWA is unique in terms of its long-standing commitment to one group of refugees. It has contributed to the welfare and human development of four generations of Palestine refugees, defined as “persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948, and who lost both home and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 conflict.” The descendants of Palestine refugee males, including legally adopted children, are also eligible for registration.
UNRWA services are available to all those living in its areas of operations who meet this definition, who are registered with the Agency and who need assistance. When the Agency began operations in 1950, it was responding to the needs of about 750,000 Palestine refugees. Today, some 5 million Palestine refugees are eligible for UNRWA services.
