Palestinian children are living through unimaginable pain and suffering. Children have played no part in this conflict, yet they are the worst affected. More than 15,000 innocent children have lost their lives, with thousands lying under the rubble. Over 10,000 children have been injured and more than 17,000 are unaccompanied or separated. They are in dire need of your love & care, food, water and medical supplies.
Donate to provide essential food supplies to children and their families on the brink of famine in Gaza.
Donate to provide three food kitchens in Rafah. These kitchens are essential to keep children and their families alive.

The war in Gaza has completely disrupted access to maternity care, exposing both mothers and their children to serious and even life-threatening health risks. Sadly, most women are not able to reach a hospital to give birth and are forced to delivery in plastic makeshift tents. Without proper shelter, access to food and clean water, women and their newborns are at higher risk of developing complications and infections.
Marwa Abu Al Nour, a psychologist with MSF provides mental health support to the internally displaced. The most common distresses children suffer are nightmares, bed-wetting, anxiety and fear. Children are supported as much as possible via recreational activities and mothers are educated on how to identify and deal with these afflictions.
We partner with world class charitable and humanitarian organisations, with proven track records of delivering child-centric programmes that make a significant impact to the lives of children in desperate need.
Some of our appeals are restricted, with the aim to raise funds for specific items or projects. Other appeals support an unrestricted fund within a country of need or in global support of emergencies. The flexibility provided by unrestricted programmatic funds has huge benefits in creating resiliency in the ability of our partner organisations to respond to emergencies, conflicts and humanitarian catastrophes that affect children, wherever they may occur.
We provide donors with quality feedback and regular updates on the impact of our work.
