Purchasing a Building for Noor charity center

1. Project Overview

The Noor Charity Center project is a milestone initiative to secure a permanent home for the association in Bethlehem. Owning a dedicated building will allow Noor to expand its programs, improve the quality of services, and provide a safe and accessible space for children and adults with disabilities, as well as for vulnerable women and families.

This future center will not only serve as an administrative base but also become a community hub offering rehabilitation, vocational training, educational programs, and social inclusion activities for those most in need.

2. Progress to Date

• Conducted assessments of potential building options in central Bethlehem.

• Consulted engineers and architects to evaluate safety and accessibility.

• Raised $2,000 so far out of the $600,000 total goal.

• Launched outreach campaigns to raise awareness among local and international donors.

3. Beneficiaries of the Future Center

Total direct beneficiaries annually: ~1,150 individuals
Indirect beneficiaries (families, caregivers, and community): ~3,000 individuals

4. Current Challenges

The devastating impact of the ongoing war has made fundraising extremely difficult. Many of our local supporters are now struggling with severe financial hardships, and the broader Palestinian community faces unprecedented economic challenges. This has slowed our progress in raising the funds needed to secure the building.

Despite these challenges, Noor remains committed to this goal, as a permanent center will provide a stable, inclusive space to deliver essential services and expand our reach in the community.

5. Next Steps

• Expand international fundraising campaigns to reach global donors and organizations.

• Explore partnerships to secure partial co-funding for the purchase.

• Begin developing plans for renovations to ensure full accessibility once the building is secured.
