100 days of death

First came the bombs. Then the soldiers. Now -- starvation.After 100 days of war, this is the face of Gaza: a starving child, desperate for anything to eat. Half the population is now facing starvation, while mountains of aid are waiting at the border.Aid agencies are begging for access, but Israel is stopping the trucks. We can help.There's 60 million of us -- if we all give whatever we can, we can power a massive campaign, demanding aid is allowed into Gaza and that the war stops. We'll support journalists to expose the full horror being inflicted on children, and supercharge human rights groups that are gathering evidence of war crimes.Over 25,000 people have already been killed, almost half are children. As if that were not enough, now those still alive are being starved. We can't let that happen. Chip in now, and let's build a single deafening cry to save Gaza's children!

Dear friends, First came the bombs. Then the soldiers. Now -- starvation. After 100 days of war, this is the face of Gaza: a starving child, desperate for anything to eat. Half the population is now facing starvation, while mountains of aid are waiting at the border. Aid agencies are begging for access, but Israel is stopping the trucks. We can help. There's 60 million of us -- if we all give whatever we can, we can power a massive campaign, demanding aid is allowed into Gaza and that the war stops. We'll support journalists to expose the full horror being inflicted on children, and supercharge human rights groups that are gathering evidence of war crimes. Over 25,000 people have already been killed, almost half are children. As if that were not enough, now those still alive are being starved. We can't let that happen. Chip in now, and let's build a single deafening cry to save Gaza's children! I'LL DONATE R$15 I'LL DONATE R$25 I'LL DONATE R$35 I'LL DONATE R$55 I'LL DONATE R$90 OTHER AMOUNT Israel has now dropped the equivalent of 3 nuclear bombs on Gaza -- an area half the size of New York City. Ultimately, only a ceasefire will stop the horror, and Gaza's children are running out of time. But with enough pressure, the brutal blockade on Gaza's aid could finally be lifted! Here's how we could make it happen: Take out hard-hitting ads in key capitals demanding an immediate ceasefire; Support journalists on the ground to get the truth out to the world; Fund human rights groups to document possible war crimes and crimes against humanity; Fly a delegation of emergency doctors on a media and advocacy tour to highlight the urgent threat facing Gaza's people; Supercharge our campaigning for an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages, and peace, justice and dignity for all.  Each of us could make a difference. Give what you can now to fund our urgent appeal to break the blockade -- and bring peace to Gaza. Support us to help save lives, while there's still time:   I'LL DONATE R$15 I'LL DONATE R$25 I'LL DONATE R$35 I'LL DONATE R$55 I'LL DONATE R$90 OTHER AMOUNT Time and time again, Avaaz has stood up for those caught up in conflict. Now as the jaws of hunger close on Gaza, we're needed like never before. Let's be the voice these hungry children need.
