Future Generation Hands Association

The Future Generation Hands Association (FGHA) was established 13 October 2005 and is recognised and credited by the Ministry of Interior of the Palestinian Authority.

The idea of establishing the FGHA followed the formation of the Nablus Youth Federation, which was established in 1995 but which serves only the city of Nablus. Inspired by the services and activities of the Nablus Youth Federation, the FGHA thought that expanding its own social activities to cover a larger sector was a national and social duty.

Aiming to improve the cultural scene and the spirit of voluntary teamwork within the largest and the most important sector of Palestinian society, its youth, the FGHA aimed to move the Youth Federation’s activities from the local to the national level.

The FGHA aims to instil a spirit of service in Palestinian youth, encouraging them to participate on economic and developmental pathways through volunteer-based social action projects. In doing so, the FGHA aims to contribute towards the regeneration of Palestinian society as a whole — a society targeted, from Rafah to Jenin.

It is a must for each Palestinian to participate in this process on the national level, to guarantee a better future for Palestinian youth, given their essential place in the present and future alike.

The FGHA was established to contribute to a brighter future for Palestinian youth.

The FGHA works to achieve its targets through:

1. Organising meetings between members of the FGHA and other associations and organisations that support, and work towards realising, the rights of the Palestinian nation.
2. Supporting Palestinian children and youth who are burdened with considerable psychological troubles, besides financial and everyday difficulties.
3. Creating a youth generation that can take responsibility and express the hope and anguish of the truth of life under occupation, as well as work towards a positive, enduring and modern image of the Palestinian nation.

The FGHA consists of:

1. Founders Committee.
2. Administrative Committee.
3. General Committee.

The FGHA depends financially on members’ contributions, besides miscellaneous donations and grants.
