Our 20+ Years of Humanitarian Work in Palestine (Gaza & the West Bank)
Since 2001, we've been dedicated to providing comprehensive, quality relief to the people of Gaza and the West Bank, who continually exist in conditions of crisis and uncertainty. From hot meals to clean water, emergency relief and more, we're committed to giving Palestine's people the help they need.
Since 2002, Zakat Foundation of America has been on the ground in this volatile area. We work alongside local partners to provide both long-term (education, health and food sustainability) and short-term aid. We’re committed to our brothers and sisters and to rebuild after this tragedy. Our seasonal giving program continues to support families facing food scarcity with food packages. We support orphans and susceptible families with education, food and other necessities. We have also pledged to build a cancer hospital in the region.

FAQs
Are you able to deliver food to people in Gaza at this time?
Yes, we are providing food to those in need in Gaza.
We have trusted local partners on the ground working from within the country who are actively distributing meals through soup kitchens and other food programs. Thanks to pre-stocked supplies in our warehouses and local sourcing, we’re able to respond quickly, even when access is restricted, ensuring aid reaches families facing hunger.
Can I sponsor an orphan from Gaza? If not, why?
Yes, there are many new orphans in Gaza. A critical part of our Orphan Sponsorship Program is long-term support and monitoring. This means that we have a process to enroll orphans in our program, including a consistent physical location where we can consistently check on the child and their caregivers. We are doing our best to expedite this process to keep up with the interest of sponsorship in this region.
If no orphans are currently available for sponsorship, you can still make a profound impact through our Orphan Care Fund, which provides food, shelter, education, and emotional support to orphaned children in Gaza and other crisis-affected regions. This includes homeless, street and transient children. Your support helps us respond quickly and collectively to their urgent needs.
How often do you send funds or supplies to Gaza?
We maintain ongoing communication with our partners in Gaza and send support as frequently as conditions permit. This includes emergency food deliveries, hygiene kits, medical aid, and cash assistance. We remain flexible and responsive, delivering aid as soon as humanitarian access opens, so that families in crisis are not left waiting. We have supplies, trucks and additional aid poised at country borders, ready for when conditions permit entry.
Are there food and water projects currently active in Gaza?
Yes. Our teams are actively distributing food packages, clean drinking water, and hygiene supplies across Gaza, with a focus on families displaced by conflict, orphans, and those in extreme poverty. These efforts are part of our emergency and long-term relief programs, designed to restore dignity and meet essential needs in the most affected areas.
Can I volunteer with the Zakat Foundation in Gaza?
Due to the extremely volatile and dangerous conditions in Gaza, we are not facilitating international volunteer deployments at this time. However, you can still make a meaningful difference by volunteering with us locally, helping raise awareness, fundraise, or organize events that directly support relief efforts in Gaza.
