Food parcels delivered to 500 families in Gaza, thanks to you!
![]()
Great News! Because of your support, our team in Gaza was finally able to deliver 500 food parcels to families with malnourished children on August 19th. We had planned to start this distribution right after July Bonus Day, when the funds were raised. But because food became extremely hard to find and prices went up sharply, we had to delay until now.
Our team delivered 142 to Gaza and the northern governorate, 186 to Deir Al Balah, and 172 to Khan Younis. Each parcel was filled with nourishing staples, including potatoes, chicken stock, tahini, vegetable oil, chickpeas, sugar, rice, beans, feta cheese, pasta, and, most importantly, flour.
The joy on people’s faces as they received these parcels means everything to us; it is what keeps us going, and we know it means the same for you, too. Thank you for making this possible.
- Among the families who received support was 9-year-old Hala from Jabalia. Her home was destroyed, leaving her family displaced and struggling with very difficult living conditions. Hala shared with us that her twin brother, Mohammed, is suffering from severe malnutrition and extreme weakness, and their family cannot afford the food or care he urgently needs. For Hala’s family, this parcel brought more than just food; it was a reminder that they are not forgotten.
- One of the families we reached was that of baby Qasem, just one year old, who is battling severe malnutrition. His mother shared, with heavy sorrow, that she has no way to provide him with the proper food he needs. For months, his survival has depended almost entirely on small portions of nutritional supplements like peanut butter. On top of this, she also cares for her 9-year-old son, making the family's struggle much harder. When she received the food parcel, it was more than just essential nutrition. For her, it brought a sense of comfort and the reassurance that she is not fighting this battle alone.
- The family of Sabrin and Mostafa also received a parcel. Their older sister shared that both babies are suffering from malnutrition. When they see other children in the camp drinking milk or eating, they ask for some too, but their family simply can’t afford it. Their mother is speech-impaired, and their father was injured in the war and can no longer provide for them. With food prices rising beyond reach, even basic items like milk and bread have become impossible for the family to buy. The whole family was happy to receive the food parcel. The food parcel is a glimmer of hope for a family trapped in unbearable circumstances, where even the most basic needs for survival are out of reach.
- Arjwan is a young girl whose health is very fragile due to malnutrition. She’s lost weight and suffers from repeated intestinal infections caused by unsafe water. Her family is doing everything they can to care for her, but every day is a struggle just to survive. Receiving the food parcel gave them a small moment of relief in the middle of so much hardship. Her family was forcibly displaced and now lives in extremely difficult conditions. Her father told us he has no income and can’t afford milk or diapers for Arjwan. Her mother, who is nine months pregnant, is also malnourished and often faints from weakness and lack of food.
- Our team in Gaza also delivered a parcel to Sham’s family. One-year-old Sham is suffering from severe malnutrition. Her mother told us that Sham cannot stand or walk and has not yet grown a single tooth. There’s no milk to feed her. The family’s struggles extend far beyond food. They are displaced, living with five other families in a single crowded classroom. They hardly have anything to eat. The children are often sick.
- Lamis is just 10 years old, but her body shows the effects of malnutrition. Her family was one of 500 in Gaza who received a food parcel from our team. Her father says their situation feels like being close to death. They don’t even have the most basic things. Lamis needs healthy food like chicken, meat, and vitamins—but they can’t afford any of it. Because she’s not getting the nutrition she needs, her health is getting worse. She’s always hungry, which has slowed her growth and made it hard for her to focus and learn new things.
These food parcels brought hope and relief to these families who are doing everything they can to keep their children alive. Thank you!
