After over a year of devastating conflict, the proposed ceasefire in Gaza is a vital chance to rebuild lives and deliver urgent life-saving aid. But hope alone is not enough. The conflict has seen unprecedented destruction, with:

  • over 47,000 people killed
  • families repeatedly internally displaced
  • catastrophic levels of extreme hunger
  • widespread damage to homes and communities.

Since the ceasefire, and thanks to your support, our teams have reached families in North Gaza that haven’t had access to the aid since conflict broke out.

We’ve already delivered 1,200 food baskets in Gaza City since the ceasefire. One basket covers 45% to 75% of food one family needs to stay healthy for one month.

But thousands of families are on the brink of famine. The ceasefire aims to send in 600 aid trucks per day. But more aid is needed to save and rebuild lives.

With just £25, you could provide someone in Gaza with the comfort of a mattress and blanket, plus breakfast and dinner for three days.

Delivering humanitarian aid to people in Gaza

We’ve been working in Gaza for over 20 years. And since conflict broke out in October 2023, we’ve been stepping up our work in the region.

We’ve been at the forefront of responding to the conflict, delivering life-saving aid and supporting families in need by:

  • distributing hot meals, food baskets and clean water
  • treating malnutrition among women and children
  • providing relief to farmers so they can keep growing food
  • helping small businesses to ensure people keep their livelihoods.

Thanks to your support, our humanitarian aid team has more than doubled. And with your help, we’ve reached one million people in Gaza and the West Bank.

Please note: Your donation will help protect vulnerable communities in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Lebanon. Any funds raised over and above the needs of these programmes will go to our life-saving work and used where the need is greatest.
