RELOCATION ORDERS IN RAFAH
CHILDREN IN GAZA
HAVE NOWHERE ELSE TO FLEE

Time is running out to protect children in Rafah, with the looming ground assault forcing hundreds of thousands to flee and impeding aid efforts in Gaza’s ‘last refuge’.
Since the attack on Israel in October last year and the escalated violence, families have been forced to flee from their homes at the request of Israeli forces, seeking safety in designated zones like Rafah and Al-Mawasi. Yet, these areas have not been spared from fighting and military attacks, revealing the harsh truth: there's nowhere safe in Gaza.
PLEASE DONATE TODAY TO CHILDREN IN CRISIS IN GAZA AND AROUND THE WORLD, WHERE THE NEEDS ARE THE BIGGEST AND MOST URGENT.
The announced incursion will not only risk the lives of over 600,000 children but will at best disrupt and at worst cause the collapse of the humanitarian aid response currently struggling to keep Gaza’s population alive. Your donation can help us provide emergency aid, shelter, food, and medical care to those affected by conflict in Gaza and around the world.
Donate today and help us be there for children living in crisis.
