Direct family support and community-led
humanitarian initiatives in Gaza
A drop in the ocean, we tell ourselves. "What can I possibly do...? I'm just a drop in the ocean." Mohammed is a drop. Like me. And Dina, and Anat, and Wejdan, Shahed, Neta, Alice, Ibrahim and Philip. Drop after drop, and look what becomes, an ocean. This is not just an inspiring idea.
We are connected.
Gaza Support Network (GSN) connects supporters directly with families and community-led initiatives in Gaza. Through direct financial assistance, ongoing relationships, and collaboration with local educators, health workers, and leaders, we respond to urgent needs while strengthening local efforts. Grounded in human dignity, compassion, and shared responsibility, we seek to preserve life, heal, rebuild, and co-resist injustice.
We create and cultivate Family Support Networks, providing monthly assistance and maintaining personal connections, responding to the changing needs: 80 family-support networks, led by volunteer coordinators, maintained thanks to more than 1000 donors and supporters.
We currently support two local-led initiatives:
Al Anwar Community, a locally organized internal displacement camp in Al Mawasi, where 200 families and more than 1,000 residents live in tents and temporary shelters.
Children of the Future School serves more than 550 children in a trauma-informed environment combining education, creativity, dialogue and psychosocial support.
“A winter catastrophe looms on the horizon.”

A year has passed since the supposed “ceasefire,” living conditions in Gaza remain devastating. Most families still live in worn-out tents or partially destroyed buildings that offer little protection from the weather. Now these shelters have undergone another year of neglect, bombardment and restriction of aid, with no sign of reconstruction in sight. Donate here.
