Gaza - A Nation Devastated.
The horrific and relentless violence which has been inflicted upon the Palestinian people has reportedly claimed over 47,000 lives, but the real figure, we fear is much greater - Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Illahi Rajioon.
With no functioning hospitals, a looming famine, 90% of the population uprooted from their homes and babies freezing to death, Gaza is a region facing unimaginable horrors.
Described by the UNRWA Chief as ‘hungry, forsaken, dehumanised,’ our brothers and sisters look to us as their homes, schools, hospitals, mosques and infrastructure is bombarded beyond belief.
Despite dangers, our dedicated teams are on the ground delivering crucial aid. We urgently appeal for your support to provide essential supplies to survivors living through this deadly ordeal.
Gaza continued into 2024
As the horrors in Gaza continued into 2024, we provided a lifeline.
As one of the only trusted UK charities to secure and maintain an MOU with the Egyptian Red Crescent, our lifesaving aid continues to cross the Rafah Border Crossing, saving countless lives from hunger, thirst, disease and ultimately death.
With your incredible support, in 2024 alone we were able to help over 1 million beneficiaries - Alhamdulillah! Whether through nutritious food packs, clean water, medical supplies, orphan sponsorships or our other projects, we upheld our promise to Gaza.
By the grace of Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) we are still saving lives in Palestine.
Jazak'Allahu Khairan
Since 2014, Penny Appeal have been supporting our Palestinian brothers and sisters across the holy lands. From providing food packs to displaced families to investing in sustainable water solutions we stood firm in our commitment to being a lifeline for Palestine. Another area we focussed on was supporting medical facilities across Gaza, the West Bank, Jerusalem, and beyond.
When the horrific violence of October 2023 began, we wasted no time in responding the only way we knew how, and the support continues to this day and well into the future - Insha’Allah!
Thanks to your generosity and our dedicated teams on the ground, we’ve been able to support Palestine’s health system at a time when it was close to collapse.
We provided lifesaving medical supplies to Al Shifa Medical Complex and Kuwaiti Specialised Hospital as well as delivering dialysis to the European Hospital in Gaza, which otherwise wouldn’t have had access to such specialised equipment. We covered the cost of emergency surgeries for thousands of injured civilians in the following medical facilities across Gaza - Al Sahaba Medical Hospital, Al Helou International Hospital, Patient Friend's Benevolent Hospital and Al Awda Hospital.
Our commitment to supporting healthcare across Gaza and wider Palestine remains.
