80% of Gaza lives below the poverty line.
An on-going illegal siege on Gaza has restricted food, medical
supplies, fuel and construction materials. Palestinians are being
denied the capability to function and are in a pitiful state.
High prices,
squeezed incomes and overcrowding - all induced from sanctions - have
also created a housing crisis in Gaza. Many families live in squalid
homes and half-destroyed houses.
Ummah Welfare Trust is conducting surveys
in the strip to identify families who are in severe hardship. With
your help, grants of up to £5000 will be administered to each family.
Grants
are used to repair and reconstruct dilapidated homes that many Gazans
currently live in. Large families with little to no income are
prioritised for these grants.
Ummah Welfare Trust is appealing to donors to give their Zakah,
Sadaqah and Lillah for this unique project, where together we can
provide to shelter to our brothers and sisters in blessed Palestine.
