—Bob Kitchen, IRC Vice President of Emergencies & Humanitarian Action

John, this month marks two years since the lives of millions of people in Gaza changed forever—two years of unimaginable horrors for children and families.

Our staff on the ground has seen the devastating toll of this war firsthand. It's more than a crisis—it's a catastrophe.

In a recent rapid needs assessment, we found that:

- One in three young children went a full day without food in the past 24 hours
- Nearly three-quarters of families with children under five reported visible signs of malnutrition
- Only 1% of households in Gaza are considered food secure
- Up to 4,000 children have lost limbs since the war began, giving Gaza the appalling record of the highest number of child amputees per capita worldwide

But John, I've also seen how your compassion can make a difference.

Please rush an emergency donation for children and families in Gaza and in crisis zones worldwide. For a limited time, your gift will be 2X MATCHED to help us respond when we're needed most.

More than two million Palestinians in Gaza are living without access to sufficient water, food and medical care. Famine has become a deadly reality with catastrophic hunger tightening its grip across the population.

Last month, we and our partners were forced to close almost all of our programming in Gaza City amidst the Israeli military takeover. Despite harrowing safety concerns, our teams continue to deliver vital aid—including clean water, cash, early childhood education and protection—in other areas.

We're doing everything possible to support children and families—but our supplies are running low. We need your support to ensure we can scale up lifesaving aid the moment access to crisis zones is possible.

Please make a gift today while it will have two times the impact for people in Gaza and other conflict zones around the world.
