Gaza Emergency
Floods Appeal
Floodwater is pouring into the tents families in Gaza call home.
Winter storms are sweeping across Gaza, flooding the tent camps where displaced families live. Rain and rising water levels soak the mattresses, blankets, and clothes families rely on to stay warm. This leaves many with nothing dry to sleep on and nowhere dry to turn.
For many displaced people across Gaza, a tent is the only home they have. With every storm, more families lose even that.
Tents, heating supplies, food, water, and medical supplies are urgently needed.
The need for emergency aid
Shelter is the most immediate need. Tents worn down by years of displacement offer little protection against heavy rain, strong winds, rising water levels, and the cold climate. Families along the coast face flooding from both the storms and the sea.
Floodwater brings new dangers. In crowded camps with damaged water and sanitation systems, standing water, and wet conditions put families at greater risk of illness, especially young children, the elderly, and those who are already sick.
Local response teams are stretched. Shortages of fuel and equipment make it difficult to pump out water and repair shelters, leaving families to protect their children with limited resources.

How your gift helps
IDRF has worked in Palestine since 1994. Alongside trusted local partners, and as a member of the UN OCHA Humanitarian Clusters, we deliver aid that reaches families across Gaza.
Every day, our desalination plant produces over 1.7 million litres of clean water, delivered by truck and jerry can to displacement camps. Our food parcels reach families in Gaza City and Khan Younis through regular distributions. Our five medical clinics provide primary care, and we supply hospitals with fuel, medicine and essential equipment. We also set up furnished tent homes and distribute clothing and supplies to families who have lost everything.
Our team is on the ground working to reach families impacted by the flood.
