5 Credible Palestinian Charities to Donate to Today

How to make a real impact

In the past week alone, Israeli strikes on Gaza have resulted in almost 200 deaths, leaving over 1,000 Palestinians injured. Homes and buildings have been destroyed, including media towers that housed Al Jazeera and AP agency block bases. 

At the Al Aqsa Mosque, hundreds were injured in the last days of Ramadan due to teargas, rubber bullets and stun grenades attacks. And families in Sheikh Jarrah have been forcibly expelled from their homes to the streets.

With no bomb shelters and no military protection, Palestinians are in dire need for medical and humanitarian support. But before you’re too quick to make a donation, it’s important to know that many fake funds have been created in the process. 

If you’re looking to make a credible donation, we’ve rounded up five Palestinian charities to support.
