People's Peace Fund is the first fund established specifically to promote a peaceful resolution of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict through grassroots activities.
In partnership with
(Washington DC), People's Peace Fund institutionalizes the tradition of its co-founders,
Sulaiman Khatib (Ramallah) and Gadi Kenny (Tel Aviv), to share their
experiences, connections, and funds with competent, highly motivated grassroots leaders and entrepreneurs, mostly young,
that they appraise on the field, face-to-face, over time.
True peace work is actually a multidimensional struggle. Normal fund applications and procedures are exhausting. Unlike other funds, People's Peace Fund provides deserving recipients with quick, hassle-free delivery of funds. We strive to truly energize peace entrepreneurs.
Additionally, People's Peace Fund promotes some original infrastructure projects such as "People's Peace Houses". These are guest houses or retreat centers in Palestine/Israel, Cyprus, and Bosnia, designed to allow for more, better, and longer dialogue meetings and workshops.
We use joint fund-raising operations around the world in order to enlarge the surprisingly small pie of financial resources available anywhere for the many difficult and costly dialogue, empowerment, education, and conciliation projects that are absolutely necessary to actually resolve the Palestinian/Israeli conflict.
