Story

PALESTINE EMERGENCY MEDICAL APPEAL

Just when we thought that the people of Palestine were relatively safe, the violence has once again erupted. As of today, 119 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza by extensive Israeli airstrikes and shelling, including 31 children, and 830 people have been injured, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza. The hospitals and medical institutions of Gaza are overrun and in need of desperate assistance.

Gaza has a refugee population of 60% as a result of the decades of conflict and unrest. The economy has been severely affected with a staggering 70% of the Palestinian population unemployed with over 30% of those living below the international poverty line.

Salam Charity is working with a trusted network of partners and organisations on the ground right now providing much needed medical supplies to some of the worst hit areas in Gaza. We are providing *medicine* and *medical equipment* to many hospitals in Gaza who are overrun and at bursting point. Please give what you can at this time of need for the Palestinian people.

Salam Charity was founded in 2011 with the aim to help fight poverty and transform lives. Every night over 800 million people go hungry and nearly 6 million children die each year from preventable diseases. Salam Charity aims to tackle this by providing lifesaving meals, clean water, sanitation, clothing and education. This will allow everyone to realise their birthright of living a happy life by developing their full potential. Salam Charity works in many countries around the world with a particular emphasis on the Rohingya emergency crisis. Salam Charity has a five year strategic plan which will focus on bringing a positive and lasting change in the lives of those affected by poverty. Our aim is to empower people for them to be in charge of their own destinies. We endeavour to support households, local communities and national institutions to develop longer term collective approaches to reinforce their capacities to better respond to, mitigate and prevent humanitarian emergencies and hunger crises. Supported by global celebrities, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and social media influencers, We have one important mission: to save and change lives for the better. We will do what it takes to bring humanity closer to a world free from hunger and poverty.
