This Week: Feeding A Starving Gaza - The Freedom Flotilla Like so many witnessing the immense suffering in Gaza, Cassandra Dixon wanted to do something to help the situation. Cassandra has made numerous visits to Palestine and has come to know many people there as personal friends, so she strongly felt the call to join the Freedom Flotilla to Gaza, carrying thousands of tons of humanitarian aid for the starving people of Gaza. At home in the Madison, WI, area, Cassandra does carpentry and home repair, leaving herself the time and freedom to annually spend a month or more in Palestine. Still, Cassandra needs and deserves our support, including through the GoFundMe to support Cassandra's participation in the flotilla. Cassandra is active with the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project and is a supporter of Palestine Partners, supporting women in the Hebron Craft Cooperative. One of the projects being advanced and fundraised by the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project is the fundraiser for Middle East Children's Alliance. At the time this interview with Cassandra Dixon was recorded, Cassandra was just a few hours from her departure from Madison, and the flotilla has since docked in Turkey, poised to continue on to Gaza.
