MEET BABY LANA
FROM GAZA

With conflicts on the rise around the world, children like Lana* and Ahmed* from Gaza are caught up in the violence. 

Life in Gaza is hell on earth right now. Every day, children face violence, fear, loss, displacement, hunger, and devastation. But there are reasons for hope – and one of them is you. 

Thanks to the support of donors like you, baby Lana* became the first baby to be born at Save the Children’s Maternity Unit in Gaza, and children like Ahmed* receive essential healthcare services.

Access to safe delivery and other healthcare services is absolutely vital - especially during conflict. Your monthly donation could help children in Gaza and around the world, where the needs are greatest and most urgent.

After 15 months of relentless war, a pause in hostilities offers Gaza’s children a fragile glimmer of hope. For the 17,818 children who lost their lives, it’s too late, but for over a million others facing hunger and loss, It's a chance to survive and rebuild. 

With this pause in hostilities, our focus shifts urgently to ensuring that aid can flow freely and rapidly. Children in Gaza are still battling hunger, malnutrition, and disease. We are scaling up our response to meet the immediate needs of displaced families while working toward long-term recovery.

Every child deserves the right to a safe birth and the future they deserve. Regular gifts are the most effective way for us to plan for this. Your donations mean we can deliver:

1. Mental health services to help children cope with traumatic experiences
2. Education through learning centres
3. Long-term medical care
4. Access to cash and food vouchers to empower families to choose how they support their children
5. Child-friendly spaces (safe spaces for children to play, recover and regain a sense of normality) to give children a sense of normality

1 in 6 children globally are living in conflicts they did not create. Your monthly donation can help give them a better future.

Every child has a unique story. We help children rewrite theirs.

Save the Children fights for children every single day so they can fulfil their unique potential. Month after month, around the world, we make sure children stay safe, healthy and keep learning, so they can become who they want to be.

We could not do this without our supporters who give a donation every month.

Monthly donations allow us to plan for the long term. To be not just reactive, but proactive in thousands of projects across the world, all designed with one thing in mind: to improve the lives of children. We know what needs to be done. To do it, we need you.
