Every action, no matter how small, can make a difference

Every donation, no matter how small, can make a difference

This August we will be climbing Kilimanjaro while raising funds for HEAL's program to provide food in Gaza. 

A Guardian Article outlines that all Gaza residents have reached a "crisis" stage of hunger, while 50% of them have reached "catastrophic famine". Yet the restrictions on imports of humanitarian needs into Gaza keep getting tighter resulting in more than 25 people killed purely from starvation (Jazeera). Almost all laws and acts like the Rome Statute Act declare this - purposeful imposition of hunger as a war crime, yet the conditions are getting worse and worse. 

With up to 50% of the population under the age of 18, children are disproportionately impacted by the disastrous situation in Gaza.  An entire generation of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip suffers from both physical conditions and life-changing injuries, as well as mental health disorders as a result of desperate living conditions and repeated exposure to war and violence.  Furthered by the lack of food/water which has reportedly caused 50% of the population to suffer from muscle wasting syndrome (where your muscles literally melt away so that your body can use it as fuel).

Kilimanjaro4Gaza is a project that aims to raise funds and awareness of the urgent situation in Gaza by teaming up with HEAL Palestine on the ground which is providing meals to the children who desperately need it in Gaza. Supporting this project has the potential to positively impact the lives of countless Palestinian children who urgently need your help.
