Humanitarian Aid to Gaza

By Admin | Admin

Because of the outbreak of the corona pandemic in March, Gaza has closed its border and is not allowing anything in or out, so we haven't been able to get the beds delivered. The purchase order is ready and we are just waiting for permission to be able to get them to the hospital.

In the meantime, Dr. Haj Yahya said he has just finished centralizing a list of new needs in wake of the coronavirus, so it is possible that although the beds are still needed, we will change the purchase order according to the priorities including respirators.

Additionally, we are working with the Arava Institute in purchasing and transporting the water generator to the Nasser Hospital in Gaza.

Both of these have been significant moral as well as practical support for the residents in Gaza.
