1. Donate to a Palestinian family directly:

  • https://gazafunds.com - Donate directly to a Palestinian family in urgent need of evacuation, medical treatment, daily necessities etc. Site run by Palestinians, all verified (full list here). Spotlights 1 stagnant GFM at a time. (*If you can't decide who/where to donate, just go to gazafunds.com & donate to the 1 GFM they show you!)
  • (masterlist spreadsheet of 200+ verified palestinian GFMs: Operation Olive Branch)

2. WATER (*urgent and crucial!)

  • Gaza Municipality: The Municipality of Gaza is doing vital, life-saving work to rebuild the water pipes in Gaza City to restore access to clean water & waste management services for the people of Gaza. (donate here).

3. eSIMS (*urgently needed! eSIM supply low)

4. MEDICAL AID

5. FOOD:

  • We Feed Gaza: Team of Palestinian volunteers in the heart of Gaza distributing food & water to 344+ families. More details & proof in their gfm. Vetted & promoted by LetsTalkPalestine on IG. (gfm)
  • Care for Gaza: Palestinian charity on the ground in Gaza distributing food, cash & daily necessities to displaced families. (paypal) (gfm)
  • Direct Aid for Gaza: Palestinian humanitarian activist on the ground in Gaza distributing food, cash & other essential supplies to displaced families. (paypal) (gfm)

6. TENTS

  • The Sameer Project: Providing tents & transport for the displaced Gazan families who are most in need fleeing IOF invasions & b0mbing. Has a team on the ground in Gaza who have supplied tents to 1% of the displaced population in Rafah. Run by Palestinians. (gfm)
  • Help Gaza Children: Currently helping Palestinians in a refugee camp in Rafah flee the Rafah invasion to Khan Younis. Funds go directly to Hussam, a Palestinian in Rafah who hosts a refugee camp. Funds will cover the cost of tents & transport fuel. Managed by a Palestinian. (gfm)

Remember small donations really do add up. Any amount helps, even $1! If you can't decide where to donate, just go to https://gazafunds.com and donate to the 1 campaign they show you.

I wanted to focus on Palestinian-run grassroots initiatives that will actually reach Gazans on the ground, so all of these except eSIMs, PCRF, MAP are by Palestinians. International orgs are not ideal rn as aid is still being stopped at the border.
