Story

Muslim Hands and it's amazing volunteers are taking on the challenge of climbing Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Scotland, the United Kingdom and the British Isles. The summit is 4,411 feet above sea level and is the highest land in any direction for 459 miles.

Deadly attacks on Gaza have claimed the lives of at least 2,750 Palestinians, 724 of those being children. Hospitals in the city are under immense pressure to aid all of the survivors that have been subject to airstrikes since October 7. Currently, over 9,700 people have been injured and the Palestinian Ministry of Health have reported around 70 percent of Gaza are deprived of health services.

Due to blockades placed on Gaza, Palestinians have no access to food, water, fuel or electricity. This blockade has also restricted the transit of essential emergency aid such as food, water and medicine. Prior to this escalation in conflict, 68 percent of Palestinians lived below the poverty line and had come to rely on humanitarian aid from organisations like Muslim Hands due to the severe restriction of essential goods into Gaza.

Families in Gaza already struggling because of the 15-year long blockade were further devastated by attacks in Ramadan 2021 and again in Ramadan 2022 and Ramadan 2023.

Alhamdulillah, we have been able to partner with UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which has been instrumental in providing lifesaving treatment and nutrition to the people of Gaza over the years.

Your donations will provide the following necessities:

- Food

- Water

- Medicine

Help us help them.
