Following 471 days of death and devastation from Israel’s assault on Gaza, a fragile ceasefire is under threat. In this critical moment, community-led organizations and social movements in Palestine continue to provide life-saving emergency response while assessing needs and laying the groundwork for a recovery process rooted in dignity and justice. As global powers seek to control Gaza’s reconstruction, it is essential to support efforts that are led by Palestinians and are for Palestinians.
Meanwhile, violence has intensified in the West Bank, where escalating raids, large-scale displacement and settler attacks make urgent life-saving intervention more critical than ever. To support these efforts, we are renewing our appeal we established in October 2023. We ask that you give all you possibly can toward efforts to save lives, heal wounds, and lift up our collective humanity.
100% of funds raised will go to local partners and allies in Palestine. Read more below.
Your contributions will help us support courageous and trusted organizations in carrying out emergency response, human rights defense, healing justice work, and efforts to rebuild infrastructure and ensure a just recovery. Efforts include:
- Distribution of food, water, and supplies: reaching displaced households with food, water, blankets, clothing, hygiene kits, and other essentials, as well as supporting farmers and fishers.
- Medical care: deploying mobile health care teams that are providing emergency health services, life-saving medications, sexual and reproductive health care, mental health services, and more.
- Specific attention to marginalized populations: organizing among women, children, and people with disabilities, among others, to ensure that their specific needs are met.
- Ecological restoration: beginning to assess ecological impacts of the genocide, heal the land, promote access to clean water, and support life.
- Movement infrastructure: rebuilding centers of community care and local organizing.
- Human rights defense: carrying out formal documentation, communications, and legal work to hold the Israeli government accountable for human rights violations, from the local to the international levels.
Please donate today so that this critical work can continue.
While the situation is in flux, our Palestinian partners are rising to meet the needs of the moment, unwavering in their love for their people and their commitment to self-determination, social justice and ecological wellbeing. Now is the time to stand with them, so that they can continue saving lives and creating a path to a liberated future for all of us.
