Leave a legacy

Helping FBFF for the long term

Have you thought about leaving a legacy to FBFF?

It is a really valuable way to support the work of the bereaved families way into the future.

Your gift will make a real difference, helping to fund activities such as encounters between Israelis and Palestinians who would not otherwise have a chance to get to know each other and which could lead to a breakthrough in understanding.

It will also enable us to continue spreading the PCFF message of peace and reconciliation in the UK, where the very existence of such activity is little known.

A legacy will help us to spread awareness of the work the Bereaved Families Forum does in Israel and Palestine, and expand the range of events we organise. In particular, it will allow us to fund more visits to the UK by Forum members so that their first-hand accounts of their inspirational activities can reach a wider audience.

The Bereaved Families’ Forum

The FBFF was set up to support the Bereaved Families Forum (PCFF), a joint Israeli/Palestinian organisation of families who have lost a close family member to the conflict. Instead of seeking revenge, they have chosen the path of reconciliation.
