Why support matters
Support responsible work on this crisis
Wet shelter and damaged belongings leave families with few options as winter approaches. This campaign supports AidWorkers.com's independent information and humanitarian work. It does not represent a promise that AidWorkers is operating inside Gaza or delivering the assistance described in agency reports.
This AidWorkers.com campaign is independent. Cited organisations are evidence sources, not claimed partners or recipients of donations to AidWorkers.com.
- Dry shelter and bedding
- Winter clothing and household essentials
- Drainage, safe water and sanitation
- Accessible health and protection services
- Clear information about available assistance

- That a gift has reached an affected family or named organisation unless that transfer is confirmed.
