Eid Appeal for Gaza

Bring the joy of Eid to children and families in Gaza who have lost so much.

Eid is meant to be a day of joy — new clothes, sweet treats, gifts for the children and a shared meal with loved ones. For families in Gaza, Eid now arrives amid loss and displacement, and for many children the ordinary delights of the day are simply out of reach.

The Eid Appeal for Gaza exists to restore a measure of that joy. Your gift provides festive meals, new clothes and small gifts for children, and essential relief for families — a reminder, on a day that should be happy, that they are not forgotten.

Whether you give in celebration of your own Eid or in someone's honour, your generosity helps a Palestinian child smile on a day that means so much.

What Eid means in Gaza today

Eid marks the end of a period of worship — the fast of Ramadan, or the pilgrimage season — and is traditionally a time of celebration, family and generosity to the poor. In Gaza, families are marking Eid while displaced, grieving and short of the most basic things.

For a child, the absence of new clothes, a special meal or a small gift is keenly felt. Small acts of kindness at Eid carry enormous meaning.

What your Eid gift provides

Your donation to the Eid Appeal funds the things that make Eid feel like Eid for families who have lost so much.

  • Festive Eid meals for families to share
  • New clothes for children (Eid clothing)
  • Small gifts and treats to bring children joy
  • Essential food and relief for the days around Eid

Giving joy in someone's honour

Eid is a season of gift-giving, and many supporters choose to give to Gaza in honour of a loved one — as a gift that keeps the spirit of Eid alive by helping others. You can dedicate your Eid donation to family or friends and share the blessing.

However you give, your gift reaches children and families through our teams on the ground, timed to bring relief and a little happiness around the days of Eid.
