Newly Displaced Families Need Your Immediate Support

The Crisis

Tens of thousands of people are fleeing south into already overcrowded areas of Gaza. These newly displaced families arrive with nothing—no food, no hygiene supplies, no shelter, no way to maintain their health and dignity.

Local Palestinian volunteers have stepped up to run emergency kitchens, preparing fresh meals and baking bread daily for those who have lost everything. But they're running out of critical supplies needed to keep feeding people. Many families also need fresh food they can prepare themselves and basic shelter to protect them from the elements.

At the same time, families are facing a hygiene crisis. Without access to basic hygiene supplies, families are experiencing serious health issues. Skin diseases are breaking out, head lice spreads from the inability to clean hair properly, and women struggle without sanitary products.

How You Can Help

🍞 Emergency Food Kitchen Palestinian volunteers are preparing hot meals and fresh bread daily, but they need essential supplies:

  • Firewood to keep cooking fires burning
  • Oil, spices, and bags for meal preparation
  • Support for 10 days of continuous cooking and baking
  • Hope and nourishment for newly displaced families

🥬 Fresh vegetable packages for the most vulnerable We prioritise fresh produce for those who need it most:

  • Widows caring for children alone
  • Elderly people who cannot travel to find food
  • Families with wounded or disabled members unable to search for supplies
  • Fresh vegetables providing essential nutrition and vitamins
  • Support for those who cannot easily access food distribution points themselves

Emergency Shelter Families sleeping in the open desperately need:

  • Tents for basic protection from weather
  • Safe spaces for children and vulnerable family members
  • Privacy and security for families who have lost their homes

Why This Matters

No one should have to choose between eating and staying clean, or sleep without shelter after losing their home. These families have already lost so much—their homes, their security, their possessions. Your support helps them maintain their health, dignity, and basic protection during this incredibly difficult time.

Your donation provides essential supplies and offers hope to families in desperate need.
