Children have been killed, abducted, and maimed in the surge in violence in Israel and Gaza.

Every rocket fired, every airstrike, and every bullet fired further endangers children in Gaza and Israel, and leaves their young minds scarred.  

Our Emergency Fund helps us respond fast to crises around the world. Your fundraising will provide urgent aid to children facing dire situations.

WHAT IS THE EMERGENCY FUND?

The Fund is a special reserve of money that allows us to respond quickly and help children survive emergencies wherever and whenever they happen.

In times of crisis, Save the Children is among the first organisation's to deliver lifesaving support for children and their families. The Emergency Fund enables us to do this.

WHAT WE'RE DOING TO HELP CHILDREN

We have been providing essential services and support to children in the region for over 50 years.

Our teams are preparing to respond in Gaza with:

- psychosocial support

- education kits

- shelter

- baby hygiene kit

THE SITUATION IN GAZA AND ISRAEL

Save the Children condemns the killing of civilians, including children. The killing and maiming of children, along with attacks on schools and hospitals, is a grave violation, and those responsible should be held to account for their actions. 

All sides must make every effort to protect the lives of children in the latest outbreak of fighting. Civilians, and infrastructure essential for their lives, such as hospitals and schools, must be spared from the violence.  

Children are terrified, have been forced from their homes, and are cut off from an education. If violence escalates further, children’s lives and futures will be the inevitable cost. The only way to truly protect children’s lives is to halt this violence.
