John,

So many of us are feeling helpless right now as we see children’s bodies in the arms of their parents. The cries of mothers and fathers losing their children to indiscriminate bombing haunt me. Seeing babies shaking from the shock of the bombings tears me apart. We need to use our voices now more than ever. Please reach out and educate your members of Congress about the immediate need for a ceasefire to save countless lives.

We can also support medical humanitarian efforts in Gaza.

Gaza’s healthcare system has collapsed, with hospitals out of power and crucial life saving medical supplies due to the Israeli government’s cruel blockade. Millions of people in Gaza are starving and relying on contaminated water to stay alive, if they can survive the relentless bombing from Israel’s military.

Zaman International is supporting trusted groups on the ground to provide much-needed medical supplies and assistance.

Please donate to Zaman International today, so they can continue providing vital supplies to families and hospitals in Gaza.

We must do all we can to ensure access to healthcare, food, water, and power—and to keep pushing for a ceasefire. Please keep calling your representatives in Congress and find protests near you here.

In grief, love, and solidarity,

Rashida
