In Gaza, winter arrives on top of an already catastrophic crisis. Families displaced from their homes are living in tents, bombed-out buildings, and overcrowded shelters with no insulation, no heating, and no warm clothing. For children, the elderly, and families with nothing left, the cold season is a threat to survival.
The Gaza Winter Fund ensures Human Appeal can provide urgent winter relief — from blankets and warm clothing to heating supplies — to families who have lost everything and have nowhere warm to turn.
