Since 2007, Gaza has been living under a blockade, meaning people and goods are prevented from freely entering and leaving Gaza by land, sea or air. This severely limits basic necessities like food, medicine and building materials from getting into Gaza. The blockade makes life near impossible for the 1.8 million people who live there 1.2 million of whom are refugees. Most people have little or no access to essential resources such as electricity, water, and sewage removal. Half the population of Gaza are children. Many have experienced conflict for a large part of their life and are battling with severe trauma and emotional distress. And their education has been affected too: over 250 schools were damaged or destroyed in 2014 alone. TEAM FACE will this year be facilitating our first ever annual KIDS GAZA SUMMER & PLAY CAMP for both boys and girls in the East, which is most in need. We aim to instil a drop of hope, smiles and more confident and resilient children.
