About the event:

This September, United Palestinian Appeal will commemorate 40 years of service at the Key Bridge Marriott in Arlington, VA. The events will pay tribute to UPA’s partners and beneficiaries in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, Lebanon and Jordan, and to the true change-makers, UPA’s staff on the ground.

UPA’s Background & Mission

In 1978, a group of Palestinian-American businessmen and professionals witnessed the deep predicament Palestinian communities continued to face thirty years after Nakba. They recognized the need to establish an independent platform to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people and contribute to the long-term socio-economic development of Palestinian communities in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and the diaspora. Thus, United Palestinian Appeal was born. Currently, UPA supports Palestinians in four program areas:

• Health & Wellness
• Community & Economic Development
• Education
• Outreach
