In a powerful blend of art and compassion, visual artist Mrs. Saeda Elbitar Ghanem has donated a portion of the proceeds from her latest exhibition to support orphaned children in Gaza through Taawon’s Noor initiative.
 
The exhibition, held two months ago at the Diwan of the Abdul Hadi family and under the patronage of HRH Princess Wijdan Al-Hashemi, marked the culmination of four years of dedicated creative work. Elbitar Ghanem’s collection portrayed the human experience with deep emotion and imagination.
 

Taawon Launches “Roots & Threads” to Empower Youth in Northern West Bank

Under the patronage of the Ministry of Social Development, and in partnership with Tamer Institute for Community Education and with generous support from GOAL Global, Taawon has officially launched Empowering the Future: Roots & Threads, a youth-focused initiative designed to support youth in Jenin and Tulkarem who are facing immense psychological and social pressure due to the ongoing instability and repeated incursions in the region.

As part of its long-standing efforts to preserve Palestinian cultural identity, Taawon, through its Old Cities Revitalization Program, has launched a specialized training course in heritage conservation and site management. Held in partnership with Al-Quds University and generously supported by the Arab Fund for Economic and Social Development, the course runs from July 6 through the end of August 2025 and is integrated into the university’s accredited summer curriculum.

As part of its continued efforts to strengthen healthcare in Palestine, Taawon delivered a shipment of essential medicines and supplies worth $10,000 to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society – Anabta branch on Wednesday, July 2, 2025. The delivery comes as part of the “We Remain Resilient Together” initiative and reflects a longstanding partnership between the two institutions.

This intervention supports the continuity of medical services in the Tulkarem governorate and helps local health facilities respond to growing needs in the face of ongoing challenges.
