Suhad found out she was pregnant during the Gaza crisis.
Despite no new aid coming in, Oxfam and partners continue to provide what support we can.
In one of the most dangerous places in the world to live — let alone to carry and give birth to a baby — Oxfam supporters like you helped to provide crucial support to a mother and child.
Because of your support, our partner, the Women’s Health Centre, has been able to treat Suhad and give her vitamins.
During Suhad’s pregnancy she lived through countless air strikes and displacement. All the time struggling to protect and care for her other children. When Suhad’s family home was bombed, she and her children were left without shelter. Suhad broke her hand trying to clear the rubble. Israel’s blockade of aid and commercial goods reaching Gaza has made it nearly impossible for people like Suhad to access basic necessities like diapers and milk, let alone the medical care she needed for her high-risk pregnancy. The humanitarian system is being deliberately and systematically dismantled by the Government of Israel’s blockade and restrictions. oxfam.ca ››› donor_relations@oxfam.ca ››› 1-800-466-9326
Even though her daughter has been born into a world of uncertainty and danger, Suhad continues to find help at the Women’s Health Centre. Her little girl suffers from severe colds, chest problems, and a persistent cough. The women of Gaza, and their families, deserve better. They deserve and have a right to food, water and healthcare. To peace and safety. We need an end to the violence and the blockade.
