This week’s announcement of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas offers a glimmer of hope to more than two million Palestinians who have endured constant bombardment, acute hunger, forced displacement, and lack of basic supplies for the past 15 months.

This agreement could open a critical window of opportunity for Mercy Corps and our partners to ramp up the delivery of desperately needed relief to families across Gaza. But the road ahead to a lasting peace, recovery, and rebuilding will be long and difficult. We must remain committed to supporting civilians affected by this conflict for the long haul.

One of the best ways to help us deliver sustained relief — food and water, medical and hygiene supplies, psychological support, and new economic opportunities — is by making a consistent, automatic monthly donation as a Mercy Corps Partner In Possibility. For a limited time, your first monthly gift will be matched 12X to multiply a full year’s worth of monthly giving.

Subject: 🚨 Ceasefire in Gaza








Earlier today, a ceasefire and hostage release agreement was announced between Israel and Hamas, which is the first step to allowing humanitarian organizations to scale up the delivery of desperately needed supplies to civilians in Gaza.

Together, Mercy Corps and supporters have been advocating for a ceasefire for more than a year, so we welcome this news and maintain hope that this ceasefire agreement will hold in the weeks and months ahead.

Mercy Corps teams and partners are continuing to transport lifesaving relief — including food, water, hygiene kits, and shelter supplies — into the region. With more than 1.9 million people forced from their homes and suffering through freezing winter nights in makeshift shelters. We hope this ceasefire agreement will open a critical window for aid delivery, and we’re calling on you to help. Please rush your gift to help families in crisis in Gaza and 40+ countries around the globe.
