Since 1997, Islamic Relief has been on the ground in Gaza, delivering life-saving aid.
Our response intensified after October 7, 2023, when the crisis escalated like never before. Working with local partners and international organisations, we’ve provided millions of medical items, supported thousands with emergency care, and delivered vital maternal and child health services.
