ART FOR THE WOMEN & CHILDREN OF GAZA
Contemporary Artist, Sophie Green, is raising money through the sales of her artwork for the women and children of Gaza.
Money raised through this auction will support ActionAid's Gaza Crisis Appeal. The unthinkable is happening in Gaza right now, and ActionAid UK continues to call for immediate, safe and unhindered entry of life-saving humanitarian aid, the release of all hostages, and a permanent ceasefire now.
ActionAid staff, along with local partners have been procuring relief items including food, non-food essential items, hygiene and dignity kits, and getting medical supplies ready so that when they can get aid in, and deliver it safely, they can do it quickly.
So far, they have reached 464,000 people with humanitarian assistance in Gaza, and an additional 558,000 have been supported with healthcare services by their partner Al-Awda. But with the situation only deteriorating further, they are urgently trying to scale up their response efforts.
Thank you for your support. The people of Gaza need us right now, more than ever.
