John,

I'm Madiha Raza, the IRC's Associate Director for Global Public Affairs and Communications for several crisis areas in the Middle East and Africa. I'm reaching out to you, one of our compassionate supporters, because it's Giving Tuesday—and more importantly, because the updates I have been receiving from our teams on the ground in Gaza are deeply troubling.

The conflict-induced humanitarian suffering in Gaza is catastrophic, with every person in Gaza now in need of humanitarian assistance. More than two million Palestinians—half of them children—are living without access to sufficient water, food and medical care.

The need for humanitarian aid in Gaza is tremendous, and we're counting on the support of IRC community members like you to meet this critical moment. Rush your Giving Tuesday donation now to make 3X the impact for children and families in crisis.

As children and families struggle to prepare for winter, the IRC is planning on providing warm clothes—as part of our women's empowerment and child protection programming—to help families stay safe and warm through the harsh months ahead.

We are also providing emergency and lifesaving medical care with our partners, including direct medical care at hospitals. Working within Gaza's few remaining operational hospitals, IRC emergency medical teams are delivering emergency surgical care and other health services to children, women and men.

I'm incredibly proud to work alongside dedicated IRC staff members. Our teams are working tirelessly to get emergency supplies to people in need. They are doing everything they can to ensure families in crisis are able to survive, recover and rebuild their lives.

But they can't do it without the support of our IRC community around the world, including you, John.

Please rush your Giving Tuesday donation to help deliver 3X the critical aid in Gaza and crisis zones worldwide.

The IRC continues to call for an immediate and lasting ceasefire as the only way to protect Palestinian lives, secure the release of the remaining hostages, and safely and adequately scale up humanitarian assistance and service delivery.

I've seen firsthand how your compassion can make a difference for children and families in crisis zones like Gaza. Thank you, as always, for your continued support and generosity.

— Madiha, IRC
