What if your gift could help a child feel cared for again?
In Gaza, thousands of children have lost one or both parents, or have been forced to live apart from their families during the war. UNRWA supports the families who take them in - with psychosocial support and cash assistance to help cover essentials like food, clothing, medicines, school items, and daily living costs.
Your support helps a child feel safe and cared for, day after day.
Since October 2024, over 6,500 children and 4,000 foster families have received support so far.
Help us reach more children today.
