Three days ago, our team walked through Gaza’s markets to document vegetable prices. Today, those same stalls are nearly empty. chuffed.org/project/166623… Aid trucks carrying fresh produce are being blocked at the borders. What was expensive on March 14th is now unavailable. Tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers - basic vegetables that families rely on - are disappearing from the markets entirely. And it’s not just vegetables anymore. Meat has vanished. The shelves that were half-full are now bare. People in Gaza are watching their food options shrink day by day, and the world isn’t paying attention. This isn’t just about rising prices - it’s about deliberate starvation. When aid trucks are stopped, when fresh food can’t enter, families are left with nothing. This is preventable. This is a choice being made by the occupation while families in Gaza face another Ramadan wondering if they’ll have anything to break their fast with. The Sameer Project is doing everything we can to provide Iftar meals, but we’re fighting against manufactured scarcity. Donate to our Ramadan Campaign - because waiting for borders to open means watching people starve.

Schools have been turned into shelters. Students are now the family caretakers. chuffed.org/project/help-u… In the North alone, our Translating Falasteen (@translatingpal) x The Sameer Project team supplied 182,000 liters of clean drinking water on March 11 to these areas… We need you to keep this supply of water going, donate to our Food and Water Campaign.

Ramadan may be over now, but hunger in Gaza will continue beyond this month. chuffed.org/project/help-u… The Sameer Project doesn’t just serve displacement camps, we also reach families sheltering in schools across Gaza, where conditions remain dire and food insecurity is constant. Here on March 15, we provided 550 hot meals to families in the Mamdouh Siam and Khaled bin Walid shelter schools in Nuseirat. Each meal included rice with meat, water, dates, and yogurt costing $7.44 per meal, for a total of $4,092 after 11% commission. Fasting has ended, but the need for food has not. Families are still struggling to feed their children daily. Your support ensures they don’t go hungry. Donate to our Food and Water Campaign to help us continue feeding families in camps and shelter schools across Gaza.

The joy on a child's face when they get new Eid clothes? Priceless. HELP: chuffed.org/project/166623… For kids, Eid isn't just a holiday - it's the celebration. New clothes mean feeling special, confident, and part of something bigger. It's about dignity, belonging, and hope for better days ahead. In Sahel Camp, Nuseirat, The Sameer Project distributed 80 Eid outfits to children who've been displaced, who've lost so much, but who still deserve to feel the magic of Eid. The cost was 7,200 shekels ($2,302) and with 11% commission, the total was $2,555. These aren't just clothes - they're moments of happiness in the middle of hardship. They're reminders that childhood should still exist, even here. Donate your Zakat al-Fitr to our Ramadan and Eid Campaign and help us bring more joy to the children of Gaza.

Caring for a young adult with disabilities is never simple or easy, but in Gaza today, it becomes nearly impossible. HELP: chuffed.org/project/136892… Displacement strips families of stability. Constant stress, fear, and uncertainty weigh heavily. And for those who cannot verbally communicate, their needs, pain, and fear often go unheard amidst the chaos. Families like Hamdan’s are navigating these realities every single day. They are trying to provide him with dignity and care under unimaginable conditions. Basic necessities like personal hygiene items become unaffordabe and out of reach. The Sameer Project provided some relief in the form of a hygiene kit and adult diaper packages. This not only helps Hamdan but his family who are doing everything possible to provide him with love and care, support and dignity. The hygiene kit and XL personal care items totaled about $40 after 11% commission and we will follow up again soon. Contribute to our Medical Campaign which allows us to respond to Gaza’s most vulnerable.

Eid is nearly here, yet so many children in displacement camps across Gaza are struggling to find the joy that is usually associated with this celebratory time. Support: chuffed.org/project/166623… Imagine a combination of your child’s birthday, mixed with New Years celebrations, and a holiday like Christmas mixed in, and this is what Eid Al-Fitr is for Muslim children acrosss the globe. It’s a time for family gatherings, small gifts, new outfits, and welcoming in a new beginning, new hope. Help us bring the magic feeling back to Eid, the assurance of faith, the enjoyment of family, and the celebration of community and resilience. These children need to feel special, need new Eid outfits that will also last the whole year.

In North Gaza’s Rimal District, finding clean drinking water has become a daily struggle. Not enough water trucks make it through the rubble strewn streets to bring water to families. Support: chuffed.org/project/113222… During Ramadan, a time meant for reflection and spiritual nourishment, families are left searching for something as basic as safe water to break their fast with, walking all day, carrying heavy containers, preoccupied with finding life essentials. No one should have to worry about survival when they’re meant to be observing faith, community, and resilience. Access to water is a human right. Help us provide this to more neighborhoods through Gaza that are not receiving enough.

Scenes from the last few winter storm continue to haunt us as there are just not enough suitable solutions for the shelter and humanitarian crisis that looms in Gaza - particularly when it rains. Help now: chuffed.org/project/113222… Mobile shelters are not allowed in. Caravans, building materials, even tents for all, are held up at the border by the occupation. Families are left with worn-out makeshift poles and sheets to cover them, unable to withstand even one more storm. Yet here we are - hopefully the last winter storm of the year - yet a storm nonetheless that will continue to barrage Gaza with rain and wind that will undoubtedly impact thousands of families. We need to be proactive, we need to be prepared. Help us do so by donating to our Shelter, Goods, Activities Campaign: chuffed.org/project/113222… Other ways to donate include: paypal.me/mahertali (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "Shelter") account.venmo.com/u/Maher-Ali (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "Shelter")

We cannot point this out enough - infrastructure: in the form of water and sewage systems, electricity, natural gas piping, streets with traffic lights, drains, landfills, energy sources, just to name a few examples in Gaza, have been DECIMATED. Support: chuffed.org/project/113222… And at no other time is this more evident than when it rains. Accumulation of water in displacement camps, flooding in the streets, and lack of drainage for storm surges and waste water runoff, point to the occupation’s strategy of deliberate targeting of all these systems in order to make life in the Strip unbearable. We will not fold, we will not cower..help The Sameer Project prepare for these next days of a storm front approaching.

Among the internally displaced - the stories of large families, of newly born babies, maybe of elderly relatives, kids who do not understand, there are also those with special needs who are too often overlooked. They are left without adequate care, resources, or attention in a crisis that demands compassion for all. Donate: chuffed.org/project/136892… The Sameer Project prioritizes the most vulnerable people, we serve cases that are over looked by others. The Sameer Project North team responded to urgent situation of Ms. Ansam and her family living in Bahar Roundabout, north Gaza. With your support, we were able to deliver a parcel of pantry staple foods, a parcel of vegetables and fruits, diapers for 2 elderly individuals. The total cost after 11% commission was $136. No one should be forgotten, especially the most vulnerable. Help The Sameer Project continue to stand with families in Gaza and ensure that those with special needs are seen, supported, and protected.

Eid is in nearly one day. The kids in Amer Camp are waiting. chuffed.org/project/166623… Children in Nuseirat’s Amer Camp are asking the same question: “Will I have new clothes for Eid?” This is one of the most underserved camps that we support. For most families here, the answer is heartbreaking. No income, no savings, no way to afford even a simple outfit. But kids don’t understand why this Eid has to be different. The Sameer Project is working to distribute as many Eid outfits as possible before the holiday - but we need your help to reach more children in Amer Camp and beyond. Less than 24 hours left. Let’s make sure these kids have something to celebrate. Donate to our Ramadan & Eid Campaign now.

Sitting around in a circle preparing the vegetable and the dish’s ingredients…Kousa Mahshi holds deep cultural and emotional significance in Palestine, where food is served not only as nourishment or provided for a gathering, but also a powerful expression of identity. Support: chuffed.org/project/113327… Kousa Mahshi - zucchini hollowed out and filled with rice, spices, and meat, then simmered in a rich tomato based sauce - is a dish that we all grew up making. And in Gaza, the strong connect between family and the land makes this dish reinforce this continuity even in the face of displacement or hardship. Here in The Sameer Project’s Batool Camp making Kousa is a shared activity, same as everywhere else…reinforcing community. The women sat together and made Iftar…a temporary act in a displacement camp, but a very firm act of heritage, perseverance and a testament to resilience.

Haneen is a young girl who just wants to go out and play without other children making fun of a visible, physical, serious health condition. chuffed.org/project/166623… She is suffering from tumors, in and around her eye, that require immediate medical attention. Her family, like so many others in Gaza, is struggling on multiple fronts - medical emergencies, displacement, and the daily fight for survival. While Haneen waits for treatment abroad, we also continue providing basic necessities to her and her community, especially during Ramadan. On March 12, 2026, The Sameer Project distributed 765 hot Iftar meals to families inside Al-Wahidi Camp and the surrounding Al-Tuffah area in North Gaza. Each meal included rice with meat, water, dates, and yogurt - costing $8.13 after 11% commission, and totaling $6,214 for the entire distribution, after commission fees. Medical emergencies, suffering, pain and hunger don’t pause during Ramadan. Your support helps us give our care and a warm meal to families like Haneen’s. Donate to our Ramadan Campaign.

“Oh my homeland, I swear Oh, I miss you, my homeland” chuffed.org/project/113327… Voices singing, rising together, full of joy, courage, and defiance. This becomes more than just sound, choir practice for children - it’s a reminder that oppression cannot silence the spirit, cannot erase identity, cannot take away hope. When children sing in unison, they reclaim something powerful: their right to be heard, to feel joy, to exist beyond the weight placed on them. And in our Hasan School, onsite at our Refaat Alareer Camp, we encourage the kids to belt out, feel the songs, tell stories, embrace the collective energy. Help us support these programs for the children in the Hasan School by donating to our Refaat Alareer Camp Campaign.

For the injuries in Gaza, survival doesn’t end when the bombing stops. There is minimal follow-up care, no treatment, no path to healing. Support now: chuffed.org/project/136892… Ahmed is one of them. A young man responsible for his family, forced by famine to seek food aid only to be severely injured while his uncle was killed before his eyes. The trauma he carries is both physical and psychological, and it hasn’t stopped. Ahmed cannot walk yet he is responsible for an entire family with no income, no medical support, and no way to afford the care he urgently needs. His story reflects a wider crisis where the wounded are left without help long after the headlines about food distribution sites, the killings, fade. Ahmed needs support, his family needs food, he needs physiotherapy and follow up care.
