Gaza is enduring a profound humanitarian crisis following the resumption of hostilities on March 18, 2025. The humanitarian crisis has intensified, with ongoing Israeli airstrikes resulting in additional casualties. Recent reports indicate that at least 100 Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza on April 3, 2025, including 27 individuals sheltering at a school in northern Gaza. Furthermore, the total Palestinian death toll since the conflict began in October 2023 has surpassed 50,700, with over 115,000 injured, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
In these challenging times, our commitment to the people of Gaza remains unwavering. Your support has enabled us to:
The escalating crisis has left families who have already lost everything in an even more precarious situation. Your generous contributions are vital to ensuring they receive the life-saving aid they desperately need.
Your compassion and generosity can bring life-saving relief to Gaza’s most vulnerable families, helping them rebuild their lives with dignity amidst this ongoing crisis.

Note: The situation in Gaza is rapidly evolving. The information provided reflects the latest updates as of April 07, 2025.
Human Concern International (HCI) has been operating in Gaza since 2000. We have operations across different sectors, including monthly food aid, emergency response, WASH, health, and education. We work with reputable partners that have the capacity and ability to provide timely assistance to people in need. We understand there are questions about delivering aid in these highly challenging times. The blockades and lack of humanitarian access are impeding the ability of many NGOs to provide help. HCI can manoeuvre around these challenges, for the time being, by working with partners that have access to funds and supplies inside Gaza.
Yes, we work with multiple partners on the ground. They have experience and
expertise in running programs and activities with a focused on children and their wellbeing.
At the moment, we are using WhatsApp for communication, which is encrypted and accessible. Our staff on the ground are updating us constantly.
In the unlikely event that our staff cannot charge their devices, and all hospitals and emergency shelters at schools, no longer have any fuel to run their generators, this would constitute a a catastrophic situation where all aid delivery would come to an end, including that being provided by the UN agency.
This is why advocacy is essential. Contact your Member of Parliament and let your voice be heard. Click here to send a letter to your member of Parliament.
Families are sheltering with their family members, within UNRWA schools, and in the masjids.
The shelter items that HCI has procured including blankets, pillows, and mattresses will be delivered to the UNRWA schools as the safest shelter currently.
HCI does not facilitate a service for adoption of children.
This is a community wide initiative, so there will not be profiles provided to

At the moment, we continue to help everyone in need, including children, through our first phase of relief work. This sponsorship project will be the immediate second phase of our relief work. It will address the urgent needs, as well as take care of the long-term needs of the children. The result will start as soon as a ceasefire is reached..
We will share photos and videos of our activities with the children.
