03.05.2009 Tromsø and Gaza are Twin cities, and good friends must help each other. Many collects for Gaza have been held in Tromsø, and especially for the Protese Center in Gaza, since 2006. Next Tuesday the Mayor of Tromsø, Arild Hausberg will travel to Gaza with Ingrid Evertsen and Astrid Eriksen to deliver over 3 Million kroners to the Protese Center in Gaza. They also bring many heart warming stories about solidarity, which hopefully will please and give hope to the Palestinian people. Alnor Senter have made a theme sales tent for solidarity with Palestine. This theme sales tent will be available for those who like to make an effort for Palestine. The idea was introduced at Alnor Network cafe for women, when 3 representatives from the Palestina committee were invited, and the theme was Palestine: Solidarity, cooperation and friendship.
The theme sales tent was used for the first time on 1. May 2009. Alnor Senter gave out free solidarity waffels, coffee and cakes to all people in Storgata, and had a collect for the Protese Center in Gaza. The solidarity for Gaza is strong in Tromsø, and Alnor Senter collected almost 7000,- NOK which the Mayor, Arild Hausberg can bring to the Protese Center in Gaza on Tuesday. Almost 2000 Tromsø people participated at the 1. May demonstration. This years gathering in Tromsø City Centre was the largest for the 1. May. The banners of support for Gaza and Palestine had the most supporters.
