Volunteering has historically played a major role in building advanced civilizations and societies, so the Center has focused most of its attention on promoting the spirit of volunteerism among members of Palestinian society, specifically among the youth. People volunteer at the Palestinian Center to help create a youth movement in Palestine capable of making a real change in Palestinian society.
The establishment of the Palestinian Center for Peace and Democracy and its ability to implement its various programs would not have been possible without the generous support we received from friends and donors. We work hard to strengthen relationships with valued donors, and we also seek to develop new partnerships that will help us achieve our goals and implement our programs and events.
