How is UFGD getting aid into Gaza?
The intricate political landscape of Gaza has posed significant challenges in delivering much-needed humanitarian aid to its inhabitants. Access to the region is tightly regulated, often requiring preapproval from multiple governing bodies such as the United States, Egyptian, and Israeli governments. However, in collaboration with a registered nonprofit organization, UFGD is actively working to overcome these barriers and provide essential aid to those in dire need. Partnering with R.E.A.C.H., an organization with operational teams stationed across both the southern and northern regions of Gaza, we are facilitating the transport, preparation, and distribution of food aid to Palestinians residing in Gaza camps.
How much aid is getting into Gaza?
In addition to navigating the logistical challenges, it's important to note that R.E.A.C.H. manages to send approximately three truckloads of aid into Gaza each week. While this may seem like a drop in the ocean compared to the immense need, it underscores the significance of every bit of aid that reaches those in Gaza. Despite the daunting scale of the crisis, the impact of even modest contributions cannot be overstated, as they provide crucial support to individuals and families facing dire circumstances.
What aid is provided?
The assistance extended to those in need primarily consists of food packages containing vegetables and non-perishable items, ready for immediate consumption. Additionally, hot meals are prepared and distributed, along with water supplies. In certain instances, durable tents are also provided to offer shelter for vulnerable families.
100% of contributions go toward the aid
UFGD, in partnership with R.E.A.C.H., is honored to provide this assistance without any administrative fees or costs. Our commitment stems from the core values of our volunteer-based organization, driven by a profound mission to extend aid to those who are most in need.
What is the cost for the aid?
UFGD is accepting donations in increments of $50, $100, $250, and $500. You're welcome to contribute any quantity you wish within these increments. We currently accept credit card and Zelle as forms of payment method. Zelle information is posted on our donation page linked below.
Can I see my contribution in action?
Absolutely! We're committed to sharing any photos and videos we receive from our team on the ground, proudly displaying the UFGD banner during aid distribution. We encourage you to subscribe to our website and follow our social media pages for future updates and posts.
In the meantime as our banner is still making it's way to Gaza, we do have shared video from R.E.A.C.H.:
