The Future is Equal

Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza

With the first stage of a ceasefire agreed, families are returning, sifting through the rubble of their homes in Gaza to find remnants of their lives. Critical infrastructure like wastewater treatment and drinking water systems have been destroyed by shelling. Homes, hospitals, and schools are reduced to dust.
Oxfam and its partners have worked under unimaginable conditions to deliver life-saving aid in Gaza throughout the war. Despite the siege and bombardment, we’ve managed to distribute food vouchers, truck clean water to communities in northern and southern Gaza and support the operation of water wells and hygiene services. Now, we stand ready to rapidly scale up our humanitarian response. We have thousands of food parcels and critical WASH supplies pre-positioned and ready to move. Our teams and partners in Gaza are prepared to restart full operations to meet urgent needs and support recovery.  Your contribution will help us expand food and cash assistance, restore water and sanitation infrastructure, and deliver WASH supplies at scale.
