Tuesday’s Child has been helping children and their families in Gaza since August 2007. 

Over the last 11 days, the world has watched in horror as war has rained terror across the 26 mile long 4-6 mile wide strip of land, home to 2 million people. Gaza is the most densely child populated place in the world where children in  live in dire conditions under siege and denied their basic human rights. 

The latest war has claimed the lives of 247 people including 67 children and 39 women. Babies of pregnant women also died in the womb with their mothers; these children are not included in the official death toll. Whole families have been killed. 

Tens of thousands of families are displaced across Gaza and thousands of families have lost everything in this terrifying and brutal war. Please consider making a donation to help provide: food, clothes, hygiene kits, shoes and blankets. All money raised including gift aid will go to emergency relief. 

Let us also pray for the dead, the bereaved, the injured, the homeless and for an end to the cruel siege of Gaza. And for a lasting peace between Israel and Palestine.

Thanks so much
