No one in Gaza is safe from hunger.

Most families are displaced and living in tents with little to nothing to eat. People have no income and food is unaffordable.

Life-saving humanitarian aid is being blocked, with only around 50% of the trucks entering Gaza managing to unload.

Malnutrition is at record levels, with young Palestinian children most at risk.

Our teams have reached millions of people over the last year with essential aid like food, water and hygiene essentials.

We have a team assisting communities across Gaza and the West Bank right now. Please make an emergency donation to help us reach more Palestinian families.

Most supporters give an average of £32.30. Every donation makes a difference.

Why Gaza needs aid now

Families in Gaza are living off little to no food. The food they do get is mainly rice, lentils and flour. Many aren't getting any protein or micronutrients. Hunger is continuing to spread.

78% of buildings in Gaza have been destroyed - including homes, hospitals, food markets and schools. And despite the ceasefire, buildings are still being destroyed.

Everything Palestinians need to survive is gone. And people in are relying on aid just to get by.

Across Gaza, child malnutrition has increased 700% since October 2023. We're currently treating almost 1,000 children and 500 women for acute malnutrition.

It's not too late to prevent further loss of life. Your donation today could be a lifeline for someone in Gaza.
