Microrrevolução #13 - "Gigantes para Gaza" - Agosto 2014 - Agosto 2015

Durante os ataques de Israel a Gaza em julho e agosto de 2014, morreram cerca de 2,100 pessoas, ao longo de 7 semanas. O Governo do Brasil, em sinal de protesto, chamou de volta o Embaixador do Brasil em Tel Aviv, gesto que o irritado Governo israelense chamou de "Dwarf Diplomacy".

A Microrrevolução da vez? "Gigantes para Gaza", uma recepção musical para arrecadar fundos para as famílias afetadas pelo conflito, com canções árabes tocadas por amigos músicos libaneses, em 26 de agosto de 2014. 

Veja um clip aqui&nbsp;

O montante arrecadado naquela noite foi US $ 2,000 (dois mil dólares).&nbsp; 

Um amigo transferido para servir em Ramalá, 
Leandro, encarregou-se de levar o dinheiro, em espécie, como 
contribuição aos esforços humanitários.

An artistic reception to network and raise funds for humanitarian assistance in Gaza.  
 Besides giving people a chance to hear beautiful music and poetry from 
the Middle East, the idea is to exchange ideas about strategies and 
campaigns many of us are involved in, while raising funds for UNRWA's 
work in Gaza.&nbsp; As recently published in the New York Times, the
 devastation of the attacks on Gaza, which have resumed, has been 
severely underestimated, and over 350 thousand people have been 
displaced. Just reading about this is too painful, better that we get 
together even to make the tiniest difference - every effort helps!   So if you play an instrument, bring it! And feel free to brush up on your poetry recitations as well.

Quase um ano depois, em 17 de agosto de 2015, recebemos o e-mail&nbsp; abaixo, informando sobre o destino do dinheiro.

Assunto: Private contribution from Brazil - reintegration package
Dear Leandro,

I hope this finds you well. I am writing from the Private Partnerships 
Division at UNRWA. I received the attached report for a $2,000 donation 
which was managed through the Brazilian Representative Office to 
Palestine. I believe the generous donor is one of your friends. You may 
have received this report already, but I wanted to make sure. The report
 includes pictures and thank you notes from the families who received 
the cash assistance. I hope your friend will be happy to see that 
his/her donation was put to good use and made a real difference in the 
lives of four families.

Kindly forward this report to 
your friend, and on behalf of UNRWA and the four beneficiary families, 
please thank him/her once again for this support.

Kind Regards,

Renaud

Reintegration Package 

UNRWA received on 4 February 2015 a private donation of US$ 2,000 from Microrrevolutions for the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip after the 2014 summer hostilities. 

The private donation enabled UNRWA to provide a Reintegration Package, a US$ 500 allowance intended for the purchase of non-food items for families who had their shelter rendered uninhabitable, to four refugee families.
