Through collaboration and community engagement, we help families meet urgent needs to recover and rebuild their lives, at home and around the world.
DIRECT FOOD-AID
2026 MISSION | NORTHERN GAZA
Raed Redwan Humanitarian Coordinator for Gaza operations, organized the distribution of direct food-aid to displaced families living in refugee camps located in Northern Gaza. The essential aid included fresh eggs and bread, reaching more than 100 families in-need. Despite a recent increase in aid being permitted access to the region, UNICEFs July 2026 Report confirmed that 1.4 million people in Gaza now experience acute food insecurity.
The World Health Organization 2026 report confirms that 36 hospitals in Gaza have been severely damaged, only 48% of the region’s health centers remain operational, and 51% of essential medicines are completely out of stock. WHO clinicians report that children are dying from the combined effects of malnutrition and disease. In September, the World Food Program also announced a 40% reduction in humanitarian aid and warned that further cuts to assistance in Gaza will be unavoidable without new funding.
While large, global NGOs manage humanitarian programs in Gaza’s registered camps, many families are forced to seek shelter in unregistered camps that are unnamed, and often overlooked. Raed and his team make a point to seek out these underserved communities, directing humanitarian assistance to families who might otherwise go unnoticed. They purchase fresh food and clean drinking water locally and distribute the directly to camp residents, prioritizing families with children who are in urgent need of support.
