John, I'd like to share this incredibly moving video with you to show you the direct impact of your compassion. I hope you can take a minute to watch. Your unwavering support allows us to reach children and families in dire need. We simply cannot say thank you enough. —Andrea

One year has passed since the beginning of the latest escalation of conflict in Gaza. The humanitarian situation for Palestinian civilians in Gaza is untenable.
But thanks to supporters like you, the International Rescue Committee, alongside our partners, is providing life-saving medical care in Gaza's few remaining operational hospitals.
Dr. Ammar, a dedicated surgeon with the IRC's emergency medical team in Gaza, has seen firsthand the incredible impact of your support.
In this brief but powerful video, he shares his story about trying to save the life of an 8-month-old baby boy. Through his account, you'll witness the difference your contributions make—turning despair into hope.

Here's an update on our collective impact in Gaza over this past year →
- The IRC has deployed 12 emergency medical teams on a rotational basis.
- We've launched a community-based management of acute malnutrition program and delivered 1,700 cartons of ready-to-use therapeutic food (a nutrient-rich paste for malnourished children) to northern Gaza.
- We're distributing 100,000 liters of clean drinking water per day.
- The IRC is also working with 13 partner organizations to deliver: early childhood development, child protection, women's protection and empowerment, health, nutrition and basic needs.
As an IRC supporter, you make this work possible. Thank you for helping to ensure that even in the darkest moments, there is life-saving help for children and families. 💛
As the only way to protect Palestinian lives, and enable the release of the remaining hostages, the IRC continues to call for an immediate and lasting ceasefire. In the meantime, the IRC is calling on all parties with influence to put in place a “humanitarian reset” that will allow for an immediate and significant scale up of humanitarian aid to those in need.
