Qatar Charity (QC) has launched an emergency appeal for the affected in Palestine’s Gaza Strip to deliver urgent food, shelter and health aid to them.
The ‘Palestine Emergency Appeal’ under the slogan ‘Show Your Support to Gaza’ came in response to the problematic humanitarian conditions that became further worse due to the events unfolded recently in Gaza.
In the field of food security, the drive aims to provide essential food items and cash assistance to the affected and the vulnerable, in addition to supporting underprivileged farmers and fishermen.
In the field of health, the drive seeks to provide medical consumables, medicines, laboratory supplies and fuel for hospitals. In the field of shelter, Qatar Charity aims to build 18 housing units and repair 71 severely damaged housing units, in addition to repairing 1,675 partially damaged housing units.
Due to the recent events, the people of the Gaza Strip are suffering a new humanitarian tragedy that made their already strained living conditions further worse. Hundreds of the wounded need urgent treatment and medicine. Many families have become homeless, and are need of aid after their homes were destroyed.
It is worth mentioning that Qatar Charity, through its office, implements various humanitarian and development projects for the benefit of deprived families in the Gaza Strip in the fields of education, health, WASH, and income-generating.
Qatar Charity has urged the benevolent people of Qatar to support the emergency relief drive for the people of Gaza. Benefactors can donate through Qatar Charity’s website, app, branches, and collection points across the country, in addition to dialing 44290000 for donating.
