One million children in Gaza are being bombed and cut off from food and clean water. Over a thousand have already been killed. Bay Area kids, families, and friends say: NO MORE. We call for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian aid for Gazan kids.

Join us for a family-friendly action with street mural painting, drumming, interactive activities, and more. All are welcome!
