Famine is imminent in Gaza

Since the blockade began in early March 2025, families are surviving on low-cost staples. Even bread is now out of reach for many families since flour prices have skyrocketed.

Gaza’s hunger crisis has reached catastrophic levels, with 1.95 million people — 93 percent of the population — now facing crisis or worse conditions, and the entire population — more than 2 million people — experiencing critical risk of famine. The need for humanitarian assistance — including clean water, food, and fuel — is increasingly urgent.

Mercy Corps is working to deliver immediate, lifesaving aid to families in Gaza — Palestinians desperately need safe access to the food, water, and supplies they need to survive this crisis.

Around the globe, Mercy Corps teams are already on the ground where help is most needed. We work in more than 40 countries alongside communities as they prepare for, protect against, and recover from crisis. Your gift today will go where it is needed most.

You can make an even bigger impact by making a regular donation, helping more communities living through crisis. Make your monthly donation now.
