A year of bombs, airstrikes, bullets, hunger and fear has shattered the childhoods of children in Gaza. 

In the past year, childhood in Gaza has been completely shattered, and horror has become a daily reality for children. 

Thirteen-year-old Solave* was severely injured by a bomb and her leg was amputated. Amjad*, not even a year old, was suffering from severe acute malnutrition, one of 1.1 million children in Gaza at high risk of famine. Ten-year-old Ahmed* has endured multiple surgeries after an airstrike, during which a piece of shrapnel struck his leg and shattered the bone.

While they have found ways to endure this year of relentless war, it cannot be their new normal. Thanks to donors like you, amidst extremely challenging conditions, our staff and partners are supporting the most vulnerable children and families in Gaza and continue to call for a definitive ceasefire.

PLEASE  DONATE NOW  TO CHILDREN IN GAZA AND AROUND THE 
WORLD,  WHERE THE NEEDS ARE THE BIGGEST AND MOST URGENT.

1 in 6 children lives in a conflict zone. And every year, hundreds of thousands of children die from the effects of war – such as violence, malnutrition, disease and cut off access to health care and water. Donate now and help us be there for children living in crisis in Gaza and across the world.

OUR RESPONSE

For the past year, Save the Children has been working tirelessly, with local partners, to provide emergency support and help pick up the shattered pieces of children’s lives. We’re doing everything possible to provide lifesaving food, water, healthcare and safe places for children to play and learn. But the ongoing siege and restrictions on delivering aid have made this extremely challenging. The situation remains dire, and it is crucial that the siege is lifted, and all crossings are opened to ensure that lifesaving aid reaches those in need.

OUR IMPACT

  1. Save the Children continues to support lifesaving services and interventions for children and their families in Gaza with health, nutrition, and WASH, child protection and learning, and food distributions and multi-purpose cash assistance. We are currently working with communities across 49 locations.  
  2. Despite the severe obstacles that hinder a meaningful humanitarian response, our teams and local partners are delivering essential supplies and services while advocating for an immediate and definitive ceasefire and unimpeded humanitarian access. We stand ready to scale-up our support to children as soon as we are able to safely.  
  3. Apart from Gaza, we're also helping in the West Bank, where we've supported families facing increased settler violence by providing emergency cash and running child protection activities. In Egypt, we've ensured access to essential supplies, supported medical evacuees from Gaza, and trained first responders. In Lebanon, we've assisted displaced individuals by providing clean water, food, hygiene products, and mental health support.  

Please donate now. Your support will help us keep delivering this lifesaving support and rebuild shattered childhoods.
