We are thrilled to announce that on 28 November 2016 JAEP became an independent charity. Our charity number is 1170414. We will of course still be able to claim gift aid on all applicable donations.

We are very appreciatiative of all the help and support we have received from YMCA Norfolk since JAEP began in January 2007. We have held a bank account within YMCA Norfolk since we began, this has enabled us to claim over £15,000 in gift aid since 2007

The sale of Christmas cards in 2016 raised over £800. Huge thanks to all our supporters who bought cards. We sold over 4440 cards, all of which really helps to raise the profile of JAEP.

£800 almost funds one young person to attend Al Quds University for one year

It is very pleasing to report that JAEP has financially supported twenty two young people to gain an undergraduate degree. Also pleasing to report is that over £106,000 has been donated from individuals and organisations. More information can be found under the projects tab

JAEP has offered scholarships to five more young people from Dheisheh Camp:

Laith in his second year of a four year nursing degree. His father died four years ago. He works as a casual labourer to fund some of his studies

Nada is also in her second year of a nursing degree. She is married with two children. She feels nursing is important because of the number of injuries sustained by the Palestinian people
