After two devastating years of conflict, a fragile ceasefire offers a window of hope, but women and girls in Gaza are still in critical danger.
60,000+ people have been killed. Over 150,000 people injured. The health care system has been decimated. More than 500,000 people are suffering from famine.
Through it all, women never stopped giving birth, needing reproductive healthcare, or getting their periods — even as they were displaced and basic necessities and health services became unreachable.
Getting humanitarian aid into Gaza and to those who need it has become an incredible challenge. UNFPA teams remain on the ground providing emergency maternal health services, responding to violence, delivering nutritional supplements to pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, distributing Dignity Kits with menstrual supplies, and much more. This critical relief is provided by your donations.
We have a crucial opportunity to deliver a sustained surge of humanitarian aid into Gaza and we cannot wait to quickly scale up our operations.
Time is of the essence, and we need to make up ground after our funding for our Humanitarian Response in Gaza was completely cut to make sure as much lifesaving aid as possible reaches families in need.
Will you deliver humanitarian aid and lifesaving care by making a gift today? Women and girls are counting on you in this moment.
We welcome the ceasefire agreement, the release of all hostages by Hamas, and the delivery of lifesaving humanitarian aid in Gaza and the West Bank. We are hopeful that peace will prevail and that the suffering of women, girls, and families will end.
Thank you for being there for women and girls.
