Thank you for helping us support families under fire
25 March 2024The situation for families in Gaza gets more dire each day, but each day, thanks to your support, we continue delivering vital aid. Our team in Rafah distribute two tankers of drinking water daily supporting 3,000 people living in displacement camps. It is a drop in the ocean of the needs of the 1.5 million people displaced to Rafah, but a lifesaving drop.
Our work in Gaza began with water and food distributions in Northern Gaza. At the same time, we expanded and formed a team in Khan Yunis to support families further South too. Repeated ground offensives in both locations rendered the situation too dangerous to continue operations so our team, alongside a significant percentage of population, fled to Rafah where they are now overseeing the water distributions.
Like every other aid organisation, we are wrestling with the challenges of getting aid across the border. We have a truckload of vital food supplies in the queue at the border and we remain determined to get it delivered safely to families in Gaza.
We are enormously grateful for your help, which has helped us support over 150,000 people with aid since the start of the conflict.
With no sign of a ceasefire, no improvement in access for humanitarian aid and the impending threatened ground offensive, the lives people in Rafah are becoming increasingly more fragile. Please share our work with your families and friends and join us in advocating for a ceasefire and unfettered access for humanitarian aid. Thank you.
