YEAR OF PROJECT

LOCATION: GAZA

Islamic Relief (IR) has been providing humanitarian relief in Palestine since 1997. From the unprecedented escalation in October 2023 to March 2024, IR teams have been able to deliver £15 million worth of aid within Gaza. Charity Week pledged and supported this appeal with over £1.1million. To help demonstrate the wide scope and impact of your contribution, we have proportioned IR’s overall impact of £15 million to meet Charity Week’s £1.1 million. For the most up-to-date reports, please visit the Islamic Relief website.
Please note all statistics below are based on approximate estimates as of 5th April 2024, and are proportioned from IRs £15 million support to meet CWs £1.1m contribution
