Crisis in Gaza: Give now to support humanitarian response efforts

5/14/25 Update: Gaza’s hunger crisis has reached catastrophic levels and the entire population, more than 2 million people, is at critical risk of famine.

Over 470,000 people will face catastrophic, famine-like conditions through the end of September.

Since October 2023, Mercy Corps has reached over 350,000 people with emergency items — food baskets, hygiene and shelter kits — and nearly 190,000 people with emergency cash assistance.

Mercy Corps has had life-saving assistance waiting at the border for months unable to distribute in-kind humanitarian commodities due to the blockade of aid and commercial goods, that has shattered food systems and nearly incapacitated all aid delivery across the Strip.

As soon as the borders open our teams and partners on the ground will be able to distribute to over 160,000 and to support millions more through humanitarian partners.

Your support will go where it is needed most, helping us mobilize our teams in response to humanitarian crises around the world. Mercy Corps teams are already on the ground where help is most needed. We work in more than 40 countries alongside communities as they prepare for, protect against, and recover from crisis.
