Emergency Relief in Gaza
The ongoing conflict in Gaza has created immense suffering, depriving families of food, clean water and medical care. Hospitals have been overwhelmed and widespread destruction has left thousands homeless. Thanks to your support, we catered for 391,012 instances of need, delivering essential relief to those most affected. Our teams distributed over 58,000 freshly cooked meals and 7,188 family food packs, ensuring that thousands of people had access to food during the hardest days of the crisis. Additionally, we supplied one million litres of clean water, providing relief to over 79,500 people, and delivered medical assistance and medicines to cater for 210,000 instances of need. In a place where access to healthcare is scarce, this support was truly life-saving.

Providing Clean Water for Thousands
Access to clean and safe drinking water remains one of the most urgent needs in many parts of the world. In 2024, we made significant progress in addressing water scarcity. We installed 5,940 water hand pumps, giving 142,350 people access to safe drinking water every year. These hand pumps provide a sustainable water source for families who previously had to walk long distances for water.
In areas struggling with severe droughts, we introduced 269 solar-powered water wells in Pakistan and Uganda, benefiting 54,400 people. These wells provide a sustainable, long-term solution, using solar energy to draw water from deep underground. Additionally, 131 larger water wells were constructed across Bangladesh, Pakistan and Uganda, providing clean water to 35,460 people. By improving access to clean water, we have helped prevent disease and eased the daily burden on countless families.
