A child eats tonight — and her story reaches you tomorrow.
Right now, 340,000 people in Gaza are living at IPC Phase 5 famine level. For $10 you support three hot meals for a child this week — and receive our digital e-book "Life Between the Bombs": real stories from real children, in their own words.
You're not feeding a statistic. You're feeding them.
Yousef, Layla and Mariam are real. Their names, their ages, their words — documented by our field team last month. Watch. Then decide.
● Story 1 of 3
Beit Lahia, northern Gaza
Yousef
8 years old · lost 7 kg in 6 months
Yousef's father was a baker. His mother, a teacher. Two years ago, the bombs took their house and his father under the rubble. He now sleeps in a plastic tent with his mother and three younger siblings.
He eats once every two days. Usually dry bread. Sometimes lentils.
"I dream about going back to school. And about eating a whole apple — without sharing it."

Layla was born into war. She has never known a world without bombs. Her older brother died from lack of medicine. Her mother — pregnant, malnourished — cries at night when she thinks Layla is asleep.
Layla sleeps holding a rag doll her grandmother made her before she died.
When asked what she needs, she answers: "Bread. And for mama to stop crying."

Mariam was first in her class. She wanted to be a doctor. Her father disappeared trying to reach a flour distribution. She now carries water for kilometers every day for her younger siblings.
She eats, on average, 300 calories per day. A healthy 10-year-old needs 1,800.
When asked if she is hungry, she lowers her eyes and whispers: "Always."
