โš ๏ธJohn: Polio has returned to Gaza, after 25 years.โš ๏ธ

Polio mainly affects children under 5 years of age. It can lead to irreversible paralysis and even death.

Overcrowded conditions in Gaza coupled with the widespread destruction of the health sector and facilities for clean water mean that it's a matter of time before Polio spreads rapidly, along with other water-related infectious diseases, including Cholera.

Prior to the latest escalation, Polio had largely been eradicated from Gaza.

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is responding with our partners by providing primary health services through mobile health teams, including conducting surveillance for notifiable diseases, such as Polio.

However, much more needs to be done to protect children. And time is running out.

With the IRC and our partners on the ground in Gaza delivering health care, water, malnutrition treatment and more, your support today can help children and families survive. All gifts are being matched so you can have TRIPLE the impact for families in Gaza, and for families facing crisis around the world. Please rush your gift TODAY >>

Parents in Gaza are facing impossible situations.

There's not enough water for washing, drinking or cooking because only one out of the three water pipelines are operational. Overcrowded shelters and lack of clean water are fuelling the spread of infectious diseases in Gaza.

The IRC and our partners are providing primary health services, trucking in water as an emergency measure and working with partners to deliver food and medical supplies.

Don't wait: your gift right now will make a difference. And with a 3X match still in effect, you can help the IRC reach even more children and families in Gaza and regions experiencing crisis around the globe.

What children and families need is simple: Clean water. Food. Medical care.

These are things that can make all the difference for children and families in Gaza and around the world.

The IRC continues to call for an immediate and lasting ceasefire in Gaza, one that seeks to fully protect Palestinian lives, secure the release of hostages taken from Israel by Hamas and other armed groups, and safely scale-up humanitarian assistance and service delivery.

Thank you for your continued commitment to children and families, at their toughest hour.
