In Gaza, mothers are doing everything they can to keep their children alive. And still, they’re watching helplessly as their children starve.

Right now, hunger is everywhere. Babies are being born too small to survive. One in three pregnancies is now high-risk. Mothers are skipping meals so their children might eat. But there is nothing left — not even bread.

UNFPA teams on the ground report women going into labor without food, without water, and without medical care. Only 12 hospitals are providing maternity services. Fuel, incubators, and medicines are stuck at the border. Pregnant women are wasting away. Mothers are giving birth in tents. Newborns are dying of hunger.

This is what famine looks like for women and babies in Gaza and humanitarian crisis zones worldwide. Please, give what you can to help deliver nutrition, care, and dignity to Gazans facing unimaginable conditions. [[link removed]?]

SEND AN EMERGENCY GIFT [[link removed]?]

UNFPA does more than just help women and babies survive — we help provide women and girls with dignity. For women and girls facing their periods — there are no pads, no clean water, and no privacy — just shame, silence, and pain. “Food keeps us alive, but pads, soap, and privacy let us live with dignity,” said Maysa , who is displaced in Khan Younis.

More than 700,000 women and girls in Gaza are managing their periods without the most basic sanitary supplies. Many are forced to use toilet paper or torn-up clothing leading to the spread of infections and loss of dignity.

This is not just a crisis. This is cruelty.

UNFPA is delivering Dignity Kits, postpartum care, mobile maternity units, and emergency supplies. We’ve already reached hundreds of thousands of women and girls, but far too many are still waiting for help. Will you make an emergency gift right now to support mothers and girls in Gaza and across the globe? [[link removed]?]

RUSH A LIFESAVING GIFT [[link removed]?]

This war has turned natural experiences — pregnancy, childbirth, and menstruation — into nightmares.

Your gift today can help provide soap, pads, clean water, incubators, safe births, and a measure of dignity for women and girls caught in this catastrophe.

We condemn the violence in Gaza, Syria, Sudan, Lebanon, Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and hope for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire, the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas, and an end to the violence. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.

Thank you for being there in this urgent moment.
