**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**

The willingness of three leading experts, all of them Palestinians, to take part in some of the charity’s discussion helped enormously to define clearly our minimum and maximum objectives. 

The internet activity and the high profile of some members of the board, finally drew global attention to the charity which was translated to the beginning of donations coming through Strip into the charity. 

Funding is enough to run the website but more is need for more ambitious objectives stated in the mission paper of the charity.
