The Polish Humanitarian Action, in cooperation with CARE Palestine and the Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committee, has organized a food aid project for internally displaced residents of the Gaza Strip. Packages with basic foodstuffs, containing enough products for about a month, were delivered to 1,945 households (around 10,920 people), in particular to families with young children, the elderly, as well as pregnant and lactating women.
With the support of donors from Poland and in cooperation with other humanitarian organizations, PAH has provided food aid and essential hygiene supplies to entire families affected by this crisis.
In the case of the Gaza Strip, the organization has focused on providing personal hygiene kits for families living in difficult conditions, particularly in Khan Yunis, where most of the internally displaced people have taken refuge. These included basic cleaning products such as soap, toothpaste, shampoo, hygiene products and laundry detergent. This enabled the beneficiaries to maintain a minimum standard of hygiene despite lack of access to water, showers or clothing.
Another food aid project has started in 2025. PAH, together with UNICEF Poland, provided a month’s supply of supplementary food for 1001 children suffering from acute malnutrition.
Because of a shortage of permanent healthcare facilities in the West Bank, PAH has organized mobile teams consisting of doctors and paramedics that reach remote communities in more than 170 locations. Doctors carry out examinations, offer first aid and refer patients to larger healthcare facilities if necessary. Some of the mobile teams are made up exclusively of women to ensure the comfort of female patients.
Anyone can support PAH’s work for the people of Palestine – every donation supports the lives of people affected by the humanitarian crisis. Any donation, however small, makes it possible to provide basic hygiene products, food and medical care. You can make a quick donation on the Polish Humanitarian Action’s website to support relief efforts for victims of the conflict in Palestine.
