FUNDING UPDATE: The U.S. government has terminated all funding agreements for UNFPA, the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency. The impact that this will have on the women and girls we serve will be devastating.

Will you rush an emergency donation right now to sustain programs for women, girls, pregnant mothers, and infants?

Around the world, Muslim families are rising before the sun to break their fast in recognition of Ramadan.

This holy month is a time to reflect, contemplate, and celebrate — even in regions like Gaza, where ongoing conflict has created one of the worst humanitarian crises of our time.

1.9 million Gazans are currently displaced, encompassing 90% of the total population. They have lost homes and loved ones, and lack the very basics to survive — food, water, adequate shelter, and protection. Millions are on the brink of famine, and due to starvation, many may not live to see the end of Ramadan.

That’s why UNFPA’s immediate response in Gaza is focused on addressing life-saving needs. Supplies, including essential medicines for safe births, mothers and newborns, hygiene items, tents, blankets, and winter clothes have already crossed into Gaza.

Due to U.S. funding freezes and grant terminations, the future of UNFPA’s funding has never been more uncertain. To continue providing lifesaving care, we depend on donors like you. Will you make a lifesaving Sadaqah (gift) to women and girls surviving in Gaza and emergencies around the world?

MAKE AN EMERGENCY GIFT

We condemn the violence in Lebanon, Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and hope for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire, the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas, and an end to the violence. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.

Thank you for being a part of this lifesaving work.
