The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is escalating.

No food or water has entered for two weeks. The breakdown of the ceasefire will only make things worse.

The lives of more than two million Palestinians are in grave danger. The near total destruction of all civilian infrastructure – including hospitals, homes, schools and markets – has forced them to rely solely on humanitarian aid.

Palestinian families can’t endure more bombardment and displacement. The already high risk of famine is increasing.

Our teams are still in Gaza and are assessing the situation. They’re trying to reach as many people as possible with whatever resources they have available. Your donation today will help us to continue our work.

Donate to help Gaza

“Food, water and fuel have not entered Gaza for more than two weeks. Humanitarian access and aid should never be a bargaining chip in a war.”

Why Gaza urgently needs aid

The renewed escalation of airstrikes in Gaza is nothing short of catastrophic. Hundreds of people have been killed in a matter of hours.

We urgently call – more than ever before – for an immediate and permanent ceasefire, unimpeded humanitarian access, release of all hostages, and the protection of civilians and humanitarian aid workers.

It's not too late to prevent further loss of life.
