Gaza Relief Funds

Rotary-specific ways in which to help.

As the humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues there are a number of Rotary-specific ways in which we can donate to help.

The Palestine Aid Fund is hosted by Rotary District 2452, which includes Armenia, Bahrain, Cyprus, Georgia, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Sudan, and the United Arab Emirates. The fund will provide humanitarian assistance to communities and families in Gaza, West Bank, and other countries in that District. Contributions will help bring desperately needed food, medicine, clothing, and shelter.

Gaza has seen it's first case of polio in 25 years. All of Gaza's wastewater treatment plants and 70 per cent of its sewage pumps have been destroyed, according to Oxfam, meaning many streets in Gaza are flooded with water contaminated with untreated sewage, making it a prime environment for diseases to spread.

To avert a widespread polio outbreak, aid groups are preparing to vaccinate more than 600,000 children in the coming weeks, as soon as a ceasefire is implemented.
