Buy emergency survival items for distribution in Gaza
We enable you to buy survival items directly to provide first-response assistance to those in the Gaza Strip.
We do the work for you, to ensure your funds are being put to good use! We first worked in Palestine in 2017, and have continue to develop strong partnerships with NGOs that operate similarly to ours on the ground in Gaza - we only partner with those who are small, agile, transparent, quick to respond, and communicate effectively. Together, we work out which survival items are most needed, and list them for you here in the shop. The items are updated in accordance with the need. For example, you might see winter clothes and sleeping bags appear one month, changing to sandals and water bottles in summer.
The best part? Be sure of where your money is going!

THIS PAGE IS UPDATED REGULARLY AS OUR PARTNER IN GAZA REQUESTS THE MOST NEEDED AID IN REAL TIME.
MOST NEEDED SURVIVAL ITEMS
The market in Gaza is volatile and items scarce- your purchase will either be spent on ingredients to make the bread, or we will purchase bags of freshly locally made pita for a family in need.
This emergency family food parcel is a bit smaller than the previous parcel, but will be comprised of the food that is the most needed. Availability is so incredibly limited and changeable in the Gaza strip at present that the items will vary, but are likely to include a range of the following items: rice, pasta, canned vegetables, canned meat, cooking oil, lentils and other legumes, bread or bread-making ingredients.
Latest update from our partners since we’ve been sourcing aid from within Gaza:
“As for food distribution, we continue to source food locally, mainly vegetables directly from farmers within Gaza.”
Gaza’s water production capacity is a mere 5% of its usual daily output. Child deaths, particularly infants, to dehydration, are a growing reality. We are no longer working in Khan-Yunis - we have moved to what’s referred to as the “Middle Area”. This purchase will typically pay for an entire 5000 litre truck's worth of water, approximately enough for 83 people for a whole month.
Latest update from our partners since we’ve been sourcing aid from within Gaza:
“Regarding water distribution, we contract with local desalination plants that are still operating inside Gaza. The water is delivered to displaced families through a water trucking system.”

We are no longer working in Khan-Yunis; we’ve moved to what’s referred to as the “Middle Area”. Just £3 will typically pay for enough water for two children under the age of five, for a whole month.
