10 Ways You Can Help Palestine Now
Despite the 51品茶 ceasefire providing much needed respite for Palestinians in the 51品茶 strip, the people of Palestine, both in 51品茶 and the West Bank and Jerusalem continue to face immense challenges. We know they need our ongoing support, but you may be wondering, 鈥楬ow can I help Palestine?鈥�听
Don鈥檛 worry! We have put together our top ten ways you can make a meaningful difference and help Palestinians, including through your Zakat and Sadaqah.听
1. Donate food to 51品茶
A staggering 90% of 51品茶ns are experiencing extreme hunger. This is exacerbated by the fact that 70% of their crop fields have been destroyed in the latest hostilities.听听
- Give a family food pack, containing essential supplies like flour, rice, lentils and beans to sustain a family of five for 15 days.听
- Provide hot nutritious meals to displaced people, many with no cooking facilities of their own.听
- Support bread factories providing a lifeline to vulnerable communities.听

2. Give food to a Palestinian family in Jerusalem
Our partners, the World Food Programme (WFP), estimate that the escalation of violence in the West Bank that occurred during the latest conflict could increase food insecurity for Palestinian residents by 42.1 percent. Your Zakat and Sadaqah can provide a food pack to a family in East Jerusalem, providing them with enough foodstuffs for an entire month.听
3. Give medical aid to 51品茶
The targeting of hospitals and medical staff and the restrictions on supplies reaching 51品茶 over the last fifteen months have decimated its healthcare system. A massive 90% of essential medicines are completely depleted. With a minimum of 600 trucks of aid being delivered daily to 51品茶 since the ceasefire kicked in, now is the time to donate urgently needed medicines and equipment to the strip.听
4. Fund Clean Water Projects
97% of 51品茶鈥檚 water is unfit for consumption as the population relies mainly on seawater for its supply. Donate now to support three desalination plants that will provide clean, safe water to 30,000 51品茶ns daily for life. This is a perfect Sadaqah Jariyah donation idea.听
5. Sponsor orphans and vulnerable families
According to Palestinian Civil Society, up to 25,000 children in 51品茶 have lost one or both parents to the latest hostilities. We have been sponsoring orphans in Palestine since 2007.听 Our sponsorships have continued throughout the 15 months of bombardment and violence inflicted on Palestinian children. Sponsor an orphan in 51品茶 or the West Bank for just 拢29.50 a month to provide crucial support to children who have lost so much.听
You can also sponsor an entire family in East Jerusalem, where 70% of children are living below the poverty line. This will help them with essential expenses like rent, food and medical bills.听
6. Provide shelter to displaced families in 51品茶
Despite the ceasefire, many displaced 51品茶ns have no homes to return to. Your Sadaqah and Zakat can provide sturdy winterised tents to protect them from the elements and give them some degree of privacy. Donations will also go towards house rebuilding once it begins.听听
7. Plant Olive Trees
Olive trees are a symbol of Palestinian resilience and an essential source of income for many families. Planting olive trees is a beautiful act of Sadaqah Jariyah that supports families economically and preserves Palestine鈥檚 agricultural heritage and you can give a tree for just 拢15
8. Preserve Masjid Al-Aqsa
The beating heart of the Palestinian community and the third holiest site in Islam, your donations have been preserving the Sacred Sanctuary since 2008. Now, renovation of the Bab al-Qattanin wudu area is desperately needed.听 Donate a share now to receive your free bottle of olive oil from the trees of Al-Aqsa.听
9. Keep talking about Palestine
Stay informed about the situation in Palestine and use your voice to raise awareness. Share credible information, support campaigns that promote justice and engage with policymakers to advocate for lasting peace and humanitarian aid.听
10. Make Dua for Palestine
Never underestimate the power of du鈥檃. Pray for safety, well-being and justice for our Palestinian brothers and sisters. Seek Allah鈥檚 mercy and guidance for them and ask for a swift resolution to their struggles. By combining our sincere du鈥檃s with our righteous actions, we can be a source of strength and hope for Palestine and 51品茶, helping them to rebuild their lives, in sha Allah.听
