Every day, we see catastrophic and fast-deteriorating hunger conditions in northern Gaza, and more than 1.1 million people are at risk of starvation.

Our team members report tents stretched endlessly under scorching sun with no relief in sight and no electricity, water, or aid. During a recent heatwave, a five-year-old girl tragically died in her tent due to extreme heat. One colleague shared, "Al Mawasi is currently full of insect-borne diseases, with people living crowded in tents and outdoors. The conditions there are beyond tragic and defy description."

I am so grateful for our incredibly generous community of supporters who have come through for families in Gaza and so many others facing conflict, disaster, and hunger around the world.

But this is a crisis like we’ve never seen before — hunger is being weaponized, and no place is safe.

As the crisis continues to spiral, I’m asking each and every member of our community to show up in full force. A group of generous donors have contributed $33,000 to our Emergency Response Matching Gift Challenge Fund to encourage others to match their donations. Will you make a gift today to help Mercy Corps’ work go TWICE as far in 40+ countries around the world?

Mercy Corps is providing critical assistance in Gaza — stocking warehouses, like the one pictured above, full of food and essential items. To date, we have distributed over 40,100 food baskets and over 19,900 hygiene kits.

However, constant bombardments, limited border crossings, and destroyed roads and infrastructure continue to make it impossible to provide the scale of aid that is needed.

We will continue to fight for a sustained ceasefire, an end to the siege, and the ability to massively scale up humanitarian assistance.

Your gift will help fuel our work in Gaza, Haiti, Ukraine, and 40+ countries where civilians are caught in the midst of conflict and disaster. Help us meet our $33,000 Emergency Response Matching Gift Challenge goal so our work can go 2X as far for families in need — please make your gift now ▸

Sincerely,

Tjada D’Oyen McKenna,
Mercy Corps Chief Executive Officer
