Gaza is entering its fourth winter of displacement. About 1.65 million people are still living in worn-out tents and damaged buildings, and the first rains on November 6 and 7 already damaged 19,432 shelters. The minimum winter shelter response is only 34% funded, leaving families exposed to cold, flooding, and overcrowding. Gaza floods have hit the tent camps hard: around 70,000 tents flooded in a single day, and Civil Defense received more than 1,500 emergency calls in 10 hours.
Your donation helps deliver the support each family needs most. Families whose shelters were destroyed receive a waterproof dome tent. Families with leaking shelters receive heavy-duty tarpaulins. Families sleeping on wet ground receive mattresses and quilts. Families without warm clothes receive vouchers to buy clothing and footwear locally. Our team is reaching over 2,370 of the most vulnerable households across Gaza.
