Together We Can Overcome

Summary

The number of COVID-19 cases are on the rise in Gaza strip and West Bank. Schools opening will increase the rate of infection if the necessary precautions are not in place. Providing students with a cloth, reusable, washable face mask and a bottle of hand sanitizer will help keep students safe from infection. Using protective face mask along with other measures put in place by DoH will limit the spread of infection between home and school and between children, teachers and caregivers

Challenge

Gaza is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Due to the population density and lack of adequate health care in the region, an outbreak in Gaza would be catastrophic. We need to take needed measures to make sure that the virus doesn't spread further. There has been an increased number of COVID-19 cases in Gaza Strip and the West Bank in the last few weeks. local agencies in collaboration with different organizations are working around the clock to stop the spread of COVID-19

Solution

The current increase of COVID-19 cases in Palestine is alarming. Distributing masks and hand sanitizers will protect students and families from contracting COVID-19 while attending schools.

Long-Term Impact

We are in touch with Palestinian physicians who are on the frontlines dealing with COVD 19. As the crisis worsened, there is a dire need for additional personal protective equipment, masks, and antiseptics. They will also be in need of ventilators and antiviral medications. Your donations will be used to purchase these needed supplies. We pray for the health and safety of every one during this crisis. We share your worries for the citizens of Palestine, and the whole world.
