S

ince the PCRF was established in 1991, the PCRF has continued to grow as an organization and now includes nearly a dozen chapters throughout the United States and Gulf area. The PCRF Chapters are a network of volunteers who have come together to provide an additional hand in providing needy children in the Middle East with the treatment or humanitarian services they desperately need. The PCRF chapters contribute by hosting fundraising events in their area, bringing awareness to the work of the PCRF, as well as assisting us to care for the sick and injured children to their area for cost free medical care. Please feel free to contact your local chapter to see how you can get involved in the work of the PCRF. If you do not have a chapter in your area and you would like information on how you can start a chapter, please contact us at pcrf1@pcrf.net.
