Donate today to support Palestinian refugees during Ramadan

As the war in our region continues to escalate and Palestinian families are facing conditions that grow more desperate by the day. Your support today can make an immediate, lifesaving difference. This Holy Month of Ramadan is a time of reflection, compassion, and giving. For displaced families fleeing violence throughout the region who are struggling to find a single hot meal, your generosity carries even greater meaning. Provide nourishment when it is needed most.

In the West Bank, $100 provides a basic food package for a family of 5.

In Lebanon, $90 provides a multipurpose market voucher for a household.

In Jordan, $55 provides a Ramadan food package for a household.

In Gaza, $20 provides two hot meals for a family of 5.

Please give generously. Your support this Ramadan is more than a donation. It is a lifeline.
