For many of us, Easter is a time of renewal, hope, and family. But for those we support in Bethlehem, it is often a time of pain, uncertainty, and suffering. Right now, 7 in 10 cancer patients in Bethlehem are diagnosed too late for treatment, leaving them to face the end of their lives without specialist care.

At Bethlehem Care & Hospice Trust, we are doing everything we can to change that. We provide the only licensed palliative care service in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, ensuring that people can spend their final days without pain and with dignity. Last year, our nurses made over 2,000 home visits, bringing comfort to 146 terminally ill patients—but many more still have no access to care.

Consider Bethlehem Care & Hospice Trust in your Lenten almsgiving

Lent is a time for reflection, prayer, and giving. Almsgiving is a powerful way to put faith into action—offering support to those in desperate need.

By donating to our Easter Appeal, you can provide vital care for the sick and dying in Bethlehem including home visits from our palliative care nursing team, pain relief for terminally ill patients and full end-of-life-care for a patient’s final days.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings real comfort to those who need it most.
