To introduce Tartan Aid to a wider audience and explain how donations are used, the team is hosting a launch event this Saturday, May 30, in Glasgow city centre.
The event will offer information about the charity’s work and provide an opportunity to meet some of the founders and volunteers.
Plans for the event include a presentation with photographs and updates from the three camps in Gaza, along with video material supplied by local partners.
There will also be a stall selling Palestinian-themed merchandise, with proceeds going towards the charity’s projects.
Through the launch event, Tartan Aid aims to increase public awareness of its work and encourage further support for its activities in Gaza.
Nazia said: “The launch event is about transparency, because we want people to see what we do and how their donations are used.”
