Ramadan in Gaza 2020

Before we start with our description, allow us to thanks all of those brothers, sisters, and friends all over for their ongoing generous support during the past a few years, and let us not forget to thanks those who are going to support the Ramadan 2020.

Almost five years of service

Between all team members, we a few dozen years of experience across the educational and NGO spectrum in Gaza. We established our foundation in August 2015 to provide a safe place for the kids, and since, we have successfully funded many projects, some of which are listed below. It was with help of many generous donors and supporters we have raised money for three years worth of incredible projects. 

Take a look at the impact and the positive difference we have made in Gaza through the links we've shared below. But as the occupation cuts off a large amount of traditional funding to NGOs we are left with little choice but to run crowdfunding campaigns to help with the most basic needs.

About Rafah:

Rafah camp, established in 1949, is located in the south of Gaza, near the Egyptian border. In the year after Rafah camp was created, thousands of refugees moved from the camp to a nearby housing project at Tel El-Sultan, making the camp almost indistinguishable from the adjacent city. 

Originally home to 41,000 refugees who had fled from the hostilities of the 1948 war, Rafah is now home to more than 260870 refugees. High population density is a major problem, with people living in crowded shelters along extremely narrow streets.

Our plan: 

So this Ramadan we need your help to provide support and care to those most in need.  As we mentioned above that the conditions in Gaza grow worse every day, with unemployment now reaching more than 80 percent. For many, there is nowhere to work and no-one to help them. 

Drawing your attention what is happening currently in the region, the people in Gaza currently have no access to the very basic things (food, clean water, electricity, medicine, etc.). As a team, we can't solve these kinds of problems, but at least we can contribute to support them in feeding them especially during Ramadan. 

***Update*** Friends, we have increased the campaign goal a few times and want to explain why. We first increased from $7k to $14k and now to $20k. If we reach our current goal of $20k we will increase the campaign to $25k. The reason for this is to help serve as many people as possible for Ramadan 2020. Each year we have run our Ramadan campaign in this manner, where we start with a modest goal and increase from there as friends like YOU support our cause. We sincerely appreciate all of your loving support and look forward to reaching our goal with your continued support! Thank you! 
Through this campaign the team aims to:

1.Food packages: 

The team aims to help 500 families of Rafah by providing them with basic food items - one food package contains items such as (beans, vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes, cabbage, green beans, onions, and essentials like flour, rice, sugar and tea and other). 

2.Gifts: 

Children usually can't wait for the first day of the Eid to have their gift from their cousins or parents, and the gifts could be a toy or a small amount of money, as we mentioned earlier about the hard economic, financial, social and health situations, we are would like to gift 350 children. 

What Is In a Food Package?

In the previous campaign, we had to use a new strategy by asking the family what are the basic needs of food and drinks they need to be provided one day before Ramadan began. and we believe it's important to have focus groups and discuss their needs. In most cases, we will provide the same as please check number 1 the food packages.​

Estimated Budget: 

How can you help?

Donate - every dollar counts!

News From Gaza

Dear All brothers, Sisters and Friends
I'm sorry if i'm using everywhere and space in order to keep you and my network updated about the situation of my people in Palestine.

Since Monday the The Zionist entity that's has carried out thousends of air strikes on Gaza. Over the last few days they have destroyed tower blocks apartment buildings, which killed about 192 people killed includes 58 children, 34 woman, 1235 wounded by the israeli Zionist entity in Gaza. add to that 60 Governmental buildings and 500 living units. for sure this result is not stable and increasing by the moment. Today in the morning they attacked my neighbourhood in Gaza. Alhamdulillah my family and neighbours are safe but our houses not.





Note: According to the current situation our fundraising goal mission extended to an urgent appeal to cover those who are not able to access the basics, click here to support it :

Anees Health Fund

Hello,

Hope my email finds you well and healthy.
I'm very proud of my friends who are doing their best to support me. Please check the message down below, your help is really appreciate it. 

"Our friend Anees is in a financially difficult situation. Since being injured in a car accident a few months ago Anees’ health has suffered and he is unable to work because of this, as well as because of the coronavirus pandemic. Anees has been living in Iceland for two years since leaving Gaza, and is unable to return home. As difficult as it is for Anees to reach out to his network, he is in need of financial assistance at this time to improve his living situation and to seek treatment for his health.

Anees has worked diligently for many years to support families and communities in Gaza in need through the Hope and Peace Foundation, which he helped to found. The foundation has supported a variety of programs over the years to bring some joy and happiness to the children of Gaza through summer camps, and art programs. Anees has also spearheaded a campaign to support some of the families most in need in Gaza during Ramadan in the past years, though a Ramadan campaign which has distributed food to thousands of families.

 Over many years Anees has worked to support his community through these organizing and volunteer efforts. He would much prefer to remain focused on that work now, however his personal circumstances surrounding his health and financial situation has left him with few options but to ask his networks of supporters to assist him in this time of need. Please assist Anees during this difficult time if you are able.

Our first Qurbani's Project in Gaza - one-off donations



At first we would like to thank all of our brothers,sisters and friends around the world who spent their time supporting our projects in the past years and we want to welcome our new donors who recently joined our network especially in the past Ramadan 2020.
Adha/Qurbani: For my non Muslims friends
Qurbani means sacrifice. Every year during the Islamic month of Dhul Hijjah, Muslims around the world slaughter an animal – a goat, sheep, cow or camel – to reflect the Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail, for the sake of God.At least one third of the meat from the animal must go to poor or vulnerable people. Traditionally, a Muslim would keep one third of the meat for their family and give the final third to their neighbors,
Our plan is to reach out to many people from those mentioned above during the Eid, Insha'allah we will reach the goal. It's only 10 day for the online campaign
