Imagine living where every day is a nightmare. Where constant aerial assaults rain down on your home, your family, and your community. Where there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and nowhere to feel safe. In contrast, for millions of innocent Palestinians, this is real life.

The situation in Gaza is dire. This unfolding catastrophe is the worst humanitarian crisis ever recorded, and the health system is consequently on the verge of collapse.
One Ummah was among the first to respond when the Palestinian humanitarian crisis began on October 7th and has been working in Palestine for 8 years. We have delivered food packs, clothing, blankets, and other emergency relief throughout the conflict and will undoubtedly continue to do so.
Despite our efforts, there is still a dying need for ALL aid– especially medical assistance. To combat this, we have been working directly with the Ministry of Health in Gaza to provide emergency medical aid and equipment to the 14 partially remaining hospitals. We have supplied catheters, painkillers, anaesthetics, and other urgently needed medical supplies.
In light of this suffering, please give what you can in support of our Palestinian brothers and sisters. Remember, Allahﷻ says in the Qur’an, “Whoever saves one life, it is as if he had saved all of mankind.” –(5:32).
