Shattered Ceasefire, Shattered Lives — Gaza’s Suffering Escalates

After 450+ days of war, the hope of a lasting ceasefire was shattered when the oppressors broke the truce and rained down bombs upon an already suffering population in Gaza. The result has been nothing
short of devastating.

This comes on top of Gaza’s already dire suffering after over a year of relentless attacks. The devastation is overwhelming—hospitals, public services, and vital infrastructure lie in ruins. Innocent civilians are enduring unimaginable hardship.

In response to this tragedy, Gazze Destek Dernegi (GDD) is launching “Together We Will Keep Gaza Alive”, an international humanitarian campaign dedicated to rebuilding Gaza and providing temporary shelter for displaced families.

This initiative aims to restore hope, support affected families, and lay the foundation for a brighter future amid unimaginable adversity.

PRAY FOR PEACE,
HELP THROUGH ACTION

GDD’s “Together We Will Keep Gaza Alive” campaign is a three-part initiative aimed at helping families in Gaza embrace Ramadan with the essentials to survive and the dignity to thrive.

Build a temporary shelter that provides safety and dignity to families

⭐ Equipped with 400 tents to shelter 400 families.

⭐ 50 sanitary units, where each unit has 8 bathrooms, thus providing an independent bathroom for each tent/family.

Ensure sufficient hot meals for everyone in the shelter during Ramadan, allowing them to partake in suhoor and iftar and complete their fast with ease.

⭐ We need at least 4,500 hot meals per day to ensure everyone in the temporary shelter has enough to eat for suhoor and iftar during Ramadan.

⭐ The total number of hot meals needed for Ramadan is at least 135,000.

Provide clean drinking water for daily survival.

Your donation is critical for their survival

During the aggression on Gaza from October 7, 2023 to November 2024, GDD successfully delivered 752 trucks filled with urgent relief materials through the Rafah crossing to the Gaza Strip.

As the need grows dire, we intend to double our efforts — especially in preparation for Ramadan. But we cannot keep going without your generosity and support.

Help us continue our mission of providing them shelter, food, and clean drinking water.

Donate as little or as much as you can – inshaAllah, your kindness will only return to you manifold, as your donation brings the reward of helping a fellow Muslim in need and feeding those observing the fast.

✨ If anyone relieves a Muslim believer from one of the hardships of this worldly life, Allah will relieve him of one of the hardships of the Day of Resurrection.

[Sahih Muslim]

✨ Whoever gives food for a fasting person to break his fast, he will have a reward like theirs, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest.

[Sahih Darussalam]

Do not hesitate…

May Allah AWJ accept from us all.
