Through is humanitarian and educational projects CIDO connects with people around the world in an effort to better people's lives with a specific focus on the Middle East.
Current CIDO projects are:
1. GAZA Urgent Relief Appeal: More than 2 million people, including children, are paying the devastating price of the escalation in the Gaza Strip. Civilians are dying while the world watches. Air strikes are continuing. Families, women and children, are being displaced en masse. Lifesaving supplies are running out. Humanitarian access is being denied.
Hundreds of thousands of displaced people, including vulnerable women and children, don’t have adequate shelter, food, water and heath care.
There is a great need for medicines and medical supplies, shelter, nutritional items, water, hygiene items and other humanitarian essentials for the thousands who have lost their homes and have been internally displaced. CIDO is calling for Palestinian refugees to have immediate access to humanitarian aid.
With your generous help, CIDO will support the on-the ground organization, the Mariam Foundation in Nazareth.
2. Friends of the Foundation for Palestinian Studies Fund:
A partnership between the University of Waterloo, Faculty of Arts, and the Shawky Fahel family has established the Foundation for Palestinian Studies Fund. CIDO’s objective is to support the University of Waterloo and its work in the area of Palestinian Studies through financial contributions, volunteer work and by promoting the Foundation to our networks.
Programs include:
- Mother-child support
