Summary
CHF International is providing emergency humanitarian assistance to individuals and families affected by the recent violence in the Gaza strip.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
Of the more than 1.5 million people living in the Gaza strip, hundreds of thousands are presently unable to purchase enough food and clean water for themselves and their families. Also, a significant number of these residents are living in housing that has been damaged by the fighting and no longer provides adequate shelter from the elements.
How will this project solve this problem?
CHF International will provide emergency food, clean water, and shelter rebuilding tools and materials to the most needy of those livining in the Gaza Strip.
Potential Long Term Impact
CHF International is seeking to provide emergency assistance to as many residents of the Gaza Strip as possible. For the long term, CHF International, which has been present in Gaza since 1993, will work to provide residents with employment.
Project Message
"Our assistance in the Gaza strip is purely humanitarian and intended to keep as many people alive as possible."
