The need is urgent: over 1.3 Palestinians in Gaza are of need of Humanitarian aid with 96% lacking access to clean water.


Your participation and your donation can have a life-changing impact:


$65 can provide life-saving essentials

$150 can feed a family

$250 can supply emergency medical aid


Together with our partners, we are committed to delivering health, food, and essential items to those in need. Let's make a difference! let's walk, run, and donate together to help Gaza and spread the message of hope.

Run for Palestine (RFP) is a family-oriented, fun-filled event held across Canada that welcomes everyone in the community. Participants can choose to walk 2 km or walk/run 5 km or 10 km to raise funds for essential humanitarian projects supporting the Palestinian people.

Our Run has expanded and is now hosted in Toronto, Calgary, London, Vancouver, Fort McMurry, Edmonton, Winnipeg.

This year, Run for Palestine National is partnering with Islamic Relief Canada to provide emergency food and health services in the Gaza Strip. We need your support to respond to the urgent needs of people affected by ongoing escalations in Gaza, focusing on health, food, and non-food items (NFIs). This project will be implemented via four local partners: Beit Lahia Development Association, Gaza Culture and Development Group, Unlimited Friends Association for Social Development, and Bayader for Environment and Development Association.

Health: Provide essential and urgently needed medical items for trauma and emergency non-trauma, including medical drugs and disposables, to six hospitals in the Gaza Strip for immediate use.

Food/Nutrition Assistance: Distribute food packages, food vouchers, ready-to-eat meals, fresh vegetables, and clean water to households in need.

NFIs: Supply bedding kits, hygiene kits, clothing, kitchen sets, psychosocial support (PSS), shelter cleaning services, and wash facilities to support families taking refuge in designated shelter points and other safe areas within the Gaza Strip.

Not all wounds are visible, and every donation counts.

In 2022, you helped us raise over $166,802 for medical equipment, supplies, and furniture for the maternity department at Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza. Your strength and dedication saw over 4,000 attendees across Canada participate to support Palestine’s most vulnerable in building a brighter future.

This year, we need your help for a new project. Run for Palestine National is partnering with Islamic Relief Canada to provide emergency food and health services in the Gaza Strip. We need your support to respond to the urgent needs of people affected by ongoing escalations in Gaza, focusing on health, food, and non-food items (NFIs).
