The Situation in Gaza
The Gaza Strip is facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis.
The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has reached catastrophic levels. Since October 7th, more than 40,000 Palestinians have been killed and over 90,000 are injured, with women and children accounting for 70% of the victims.
The entire population of 2.2 million Gazans requires urgent humanitarian assistance.
Electricity blackouts coupled with severe water and food shortages have created a healthcare and sanitation crisis. 1.9 million people have been internally displaced, and face severe overcrowding, lack of privacy, and unsafe conditions. This threatens vulnerable groups like children, pregnant women, the disabled, and the elderly.
They need your emergency support now more than ever.
How IDRF is helping
When disaster strikes, IDRF aims to be the first on the ground to provide immediate relief and aid.
With residential and commercial buildings being left in ruins, families needed immediate access to basic necessities like food, water, and medical care.
Our teams in Gaza responded immediately, and have been providing civilians with daily water trucking services, food vouchers, and parcels. Additionally, we have contributed medical supplies to Al Shifa Hospital in northern Gaza. We have partnered with UNRWA to distribute food parcels among displaced families living in their shelters on an ongoing basis.
Each parcel includes critical staples, like 5 kilograms of rice, canned meat and cheese, pasta, tea, sugar, and disposable utensils.
