Water for Gaza: You Can Help from Abroad
The people of Gaza face multiple simultaneous threats to their survival: Israeli military attacks, border closures, obstruction of humanitarian aid, restrictions on goods movement leading to price surges, unsanitary conditions, and starvation.
▶︎Page 2
Even if they survive attacks from air, land and sea, they face hunger, thirst, cold (and until recently, extreme heat), and unhygienic conditions. There aren't enough medical facilities or supplies to treat injuries and illnesses. Everything is in short supply, causing prices to skyrocket. Most people haven't been able to work or earn an income for over a year.
Yet daily life must go on.
*Note: Due to Israeli occupation policies, Gaza's access to goods and energy was already restricted before October 2023, and many were unable to find employment even then. This isn't to minimise the current situation, but to acknowledge that these aren't new hardships.*

Water is the most basic survival need. Yet infrastructure has been destroyed and international supplies are restricted. That's why Mohammad, age 17, with help from his Japanese friends, started an initiative to pump groundwater from wells. He travels across central Gaza, pumping water from wells and distributing it to local communities.

Mohammad's work has helped countless people who previously had to walk for kilometres and pay excessive prices for water. However, funding is running low. A crowdfunding campaign has launched to raise 54,000 USD by the end of 2024.
The project uses Swiss Francs (CHF)
CHF 1 ≈ $1.14 (as of November 30)

Boycott and Protests are equally important - to change the root cause of the problem. Let’s contact local municipalities, put pressure on boycott targets and stop the genocide.
Free Palestine!!
