Patients’ Committee in Beit Jala: Compassion in Action
2005, the Arab Orthodox Benevolent Society established the Patients’ Committee in Beit Jala. Over the years, this compassionate initiative has thrived and garnered support from other benevolent organizations in Beit Jala. Today, we take you behind the scenes to shed light on the invaluable work of the Patients’ Committee and its dedication to supporting the most vulnerable members of our community.
A United Front of Benevolence
The Patients’ Committee operates from the heart of the Arab Orthodox Benevolent Society headquarters. This central location ensures transparency in its financial reports and facilitates regular meetings through established internal systems. These meetings, held monthly or as needed, play a crucial role in charting the path to bettering the lives of our fellow citizens.
Guiding Principles and Selection Process
The Patients’ Committee is guided by principles that ensure assistance reaches those who need it most, without discrimination. A robust standard operating procedure has been put in place to assess eligibility for support meticulously. Every three years, founding institutions carefully select committee members, ensuring a dedicated and knowledgeable team.
Community-Powered Assistance
The Patients’ Committee is not alone in its mission. Charitable bodies within Beit Jala, including The Senior Citizens Society, Women’s Childcare Society, Saint Nicholas Home for the Elderly, the Custodians of Orthodox Churches, the Ladies Committee of the Arab Orthodox Benevolent Society, the Society de St. Vincent de Paul, and the Evangelical Lutheran Church, provide invaluable support. Their annual contributions bolster the Patient Fund, but resources remain limited.
Call to Philanthropists
The Patients’ Committee is reaching out to compassionate philanthropists locally and beyond to extend a helping hand. The demand for support far exceeds the available resources, making every contribution crucial. Even small donations can significantly impact the lives of our fellow citizens in need.
Making a Difference: Your Support Matters
In most cases, the Patient Fund can only provide partial support to ensure as many requests as possible are positively evaluated and supported. Medical and social proposals undergo thorough evaluation by professional social workers and are meticulously vetted by the committee.
