Isaar Trust, in partnership with numerous other organisations and individuals, joined an aid convoy which travelled from Britain to Palestine on 14th February 2009 through countries which included France, Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, through Rafah border, and arrived into Gaza on Monday 9th March where it was greeted warmly by thousands of Palestinian civilians.
It brought material aid i.e. food, shelter, clothing, medical supplies and other humanitarian goods to the oppressed people of Gaza.
The convoy included a British fire engine, ambulances, vans, lorries and many trucks full of practical aid given and bought by the various communities across Britain.
We, the Isaar Trust, joined the aid convoy by purchasing two vehicles which were then laiden with invaluable humanitarian supplies such as generators, clothes and other goods, delivering them successfully on Monday 9th March to Gaza, to the people and the Essahaba Medical Complex.
It was an enormous achievement and highlighted the dedication of the drivers and aid workers that there is no sacrifice that they are not willing to make to help the poor and needy around the world - may this passion and self-motivation continue for a long time in the future.
