Practical Compassion for Destitute Children
Pcdc is a Tyneside-based charity dedicated to serving children in crisis in the Holy Land, regardless of race, creed or colour. We give financial, practical, and prayer-aid through our child-sponsorship scheme.
History:
Whilst in the Holy Land in 1996, a number of Christian friends learned of the needs of some poor children they met. These were children who were orphaned, abandoned or sick, and in need of love and care.
Today, through the kindness and prayers of our supporters, seven trustees oversee the sponsoring of over 300 children from desperately impoverished backgrounds in the Holy Land.
SPONSORING A CHILD:
We can arrange for you to sponsor a child. This commitment may be not only of cash, but also of prayer.
You may have direct contact through letters, cards and/or small gifts, or indirectly via the Co-ordinator, who will provide you with photographs and a report of the child’s progress.
Great care is taken to ‘match’ each child with their sponsor.

Where we work
Personal contact with every child is very important!
The Co-ordinator, some trustees, and other interested friends visit twice a year. They all pay their own expenses and see the different schools and boarding houses.
Also, visits are made to some family homes of supported children, reassuring them of the real concern for the child.
We currently support children in various homes and schools including....
- Hope Secondary School, Beit Jala
- Talitha Kumi School, Beit Jala
- School of Joy, Beit Sahour
- Hebron Evangelical School and Home
- Arab Evangelical School & Home, Ramallah
- Latin Patriarchate School, Beit Jala
- University of Bethlehem
