Your Impact Foundation is a UK-registered charity (No. 1192710) delivering emergency humanitarian aid across Gaza, Palestine, Yemen, Syria, Sudan, and beyond. All Zakat is distributed in a fully Shariah-compliant manner with 100% reaching eligible recipients.
When a hospital loses power in the middle of surgery, doctors do not stop. They operate by torchlight. When medicine runs out, nurses improvise. When an ambulance is destroyed, patients are carried by hand through rubble to whatever remains of a functioning clinic.
This is not a hypothetical. This is healthcare in Gaza — right now, today.
Only 19 of Gaza’s 36 hospitals remain operational, and of those, just 12 provide a full range of health services. The rest can offer nothing beyond basic emergency care. Across the entire Gaza Strip, only 2,000 hospital beds remain available for a population of over 2 million people.
Behind every one of those 2,000 beds is a story. A child with a wound infection that would be routine to treat anywhere else in the world. A mother giving birth without anaesthesia. An elderly man with a chronic condition — diabetes, heart disease, kidney failure — who has not had his medication in weeks.
Your Impact Foundation exists to close that gap. Not with words. With medicine, mobile clinics, and a funded partner network already inside Gaza and Palestine — ready to act when access allows.
This is how we do it. Donate to Gaza today and help us.
What is the difference between donating to Gaza vs. donating to Palestine?
Gaza refers specifically to the Gaza Strip, where the humanitarian crisis — including the healthcare system collapse — is most acute. Palestine more broadly covers the occupied West Bank and other Palestinian territories, where our partners also operate. Your Impact Foundation is active across both contexts, directing your donation to where the need is most urgent.
The scale of Gaza’s healthcare collapse — what the numbers mean for real people
Before explaining what Your Impact Foundation does, it is important to understand what we are responding to. Because the scale of Gaza’s healthcare crisis is unlike almost anything the modern world has seen.
Only 10 of Gaza’s original 36 hospitals maintain partial operational status. The World Health Organization has verified over 800 attacks on healthcare infrastructure since the escalation began. More than 60% of hospitals are non-functional, and the rest are barely operational, with severe shortages of medicines and oxygen persisting throughout.
The critical shortage in medications and consumables has only worsened over time, with 52% of medicines and 68% of consumables at zero stock. Hospitals are overwhelmed by injuries, driving persistent shortages of blood and plasma.
Since the start of 2025, 148 people have died from malnutrition alone — including 49 children, 39 of them under the age of five. Nearly 12,000 children under five were diagnosed with acute malnutrition in a single month — the highest monthly figure ever recorded — with more than 2,500 suffering from the most severe form.
Approximately 50,000 women are pregnant in Gaza at any given moment, with roughly 5,000 expected to give birth each month. Without a significant increase in health and humanitarian aid, these women face giving birth in shelters, homes, and amid rubble. An estimated 15% will experience complications with minimal access to medical intervention.
These are not statistics to be read and forgotten. They are the context in which Your Impact Foundation operates — and the reason that every medicine truck, every mobile clinic, and every emergency food pack we fund is a matter of life and death.
Why medical aid in Gaza requires a different approach
Delivering humanitarian aid in Gaza is not like delivering aid anywhere else. Nearly one-fifth of all recorded aid worker deaths globally have occurred in Gaza. Aid workers risk their lives every day simply to help others survive — there is no safe space for them, or for those they serve.
Access restrictions, movement cancellations, and last-minute blocks on specific types of vehicles — including restrictions that impede the transport of temperature-controlled drugs — compound the challenge of delivering essential medicines to the people who need them.
This reality requires an approach built on three things: trusted local partners already inside Gaza, a pre-funded emergency reserve that does not wait for a new appeal to be launched, and total flexibility to redirect resources as access conditions change hour by hour.
This is exactly how Your Impact Foundation operates.
“We do not pretend that delivering aid in Gaza is straightforward,” says Sara Noor Hussein, Trustee of Your Impact Foundation. “The conditions on the ground are unlike anything our partners have encountered anywhere else. But our model — working through local teams with deep community trust, pre-funded and ready to move — means we can reach families that a larger, slower operation simply cannot. Every truck of medicine we get through matters. Every mobile clinic session is for someone who has no other option.”
What Your Impact Foundation funds in Gaza and Palestine
Your Impact Foundation does not operate field hospitals. We are not a large international body with hundreds of staff on the ground. What we are is a focused, fast-moving UK charity that directs donor funds — efficiently, transparently, and with full Shariah compliance — to the specific interventions that save lives when the healthcare system around them has collapsed.
Here is exactly what we fund:
Emergency medicine delivery — truck by truck
When a hospital runs out of antibiotics, painkillers, surgical supplies, or blood pressure medication, the impact is immediate. Conditions that are manageable become fatal. Surgeries cannot be performed. Chronic disease patients — already weakened by food insecurity and displacement — deteriorate rapidly.
Your Impact Foundation funds the procurement and delivery of critical medicines through our trusted local partner network. These partners have established supply relationships, existing access to distribution points, and the community knowledge to direct medicines where they are most critically needed.
Here is what your donation funds directly:
- £100 — Provides life-saving medical aid for one person in urgent need
- £250 — Delivers a quarter of a truck of critical medicines to active crisis areas
- £500 — Supplies half a truck of essential medicines, reaching communities with limited healthcare access
- £1,000 — Funds a full truck of life-saving medicines delivered directly to areas facing the most acute shortages
A single truck of medicines — funded by donors giving £1,000 collectively — can supply a field medical point serving hundreds of patients with conditions ranging from wound infections and trauma injuries to diabetes management and maternal care.
Mobile medical clinics — healthcare that goes to the patient
Medical points operating in 28 areas of Gaza provide primary care and trauma management for displaced populations. Even though these have been systematically targeted, they have persisted despite severe shortages of medication, equipment, and staff.
When hospitals are destroyed and people cannot safely travel to seek care, the only option is to bring healthcare to them. Mobile medical clinics do exactly this — they are small, rapid, adaptable units that move through displacement zones, reaching patients who would otherwise receive no care at all.
Your Impact Foundation funds mobile medical clinic operations through our trusted local partners. A single funded clinic session delivers primary healthcare consultations, wound treatment, medication distribution, malnutrition screening, and basic maternal health services to a community that has no other access point.
- £5,000 — Supports a mobile medical clinic, funding operations, supplies, and staff costs to reach patients in areas with no remaining healthcare infrastructure
Since the escalation in Gaza, our partner teams have delivered mobile clinic sessions across displacement zones in both northern and southern Gaza, reaching families sheltering in overcrowded camps, bombed-out buildings, and makeshift tents. Conservative estimates based on our funding levels suggest these sessions have collectively reached thousands of patients who would otherwise have had no access to any form of medical care.
Emergency food aid — because malnutrition is a medical emergency
Healthcare and food aid cannot be separated in Gaza. Malnutrition is now a direct cause of death — particularly for children under five, pregnant women, and the elderly. Disease outbreaks including suspected meningitis and Guillain-Barré syndrome are surging, driven in part by the nutritional collapse of a population whose immune systems are failing.
A malnourished child does not simply feel hungry. Their immune system weakens, making them vulnerable to infections that a healthy child would fight off easily. Their organs are under stress. Their development — physical and cognitive — is being permanently affected. And in the context of Gaza’s collapsed healthcare system, a malnourished child who falls ill has almost no access to the treatment they need.
This is why Your Impact Foundation’s emergency food aid is not separate from our medical response. It is part of it.
- £40 — Provides an emergency food pack for a family facing acute food insecurity
- £50 — Feeds a family for an entire month through our food distribution programme
Emergency food packs contain essential staples — flour, rice, oil, lentils, and other nutritional basics — designed to provide a family with consistent caloric intake during a period of crisis. For families where children are already showing early signs of malnutrition, a food pack is not just food. It is medicine.
How we operate: the trusted local partner model
Your Impact Foundation does not parachute teams into crisis zones. We work through established, trusted local partners who are already embedded in the communities they serve — with existing relationships, distribution infrastructure, access routes, and the community trust that is essential for operating in a conflict environment.
Local partner networks are what grant access to communities that other international organisations cannot reach. Through this access, aid can be delivered in Gaza where only a small number of organisations have been able to provide frontline services throughout the conflict.
This model gives us three critical advantages:
Speed. Our local partners do not need to establish themselves, build relationships, or navigate new terrain. They are already there. When we release emergency funds, they are operational within hours — not weeks.
Access. In a conflict environment where access points open and close unpredictably, local partners with deep community knowledge can find routes, adapt to restrictions, and reach families in areas that external teams simply cannot penetrate.
Trust. Communities in crisis are, understandably, cautious about who they accept aid from. Local partners who share language, culture, and lived experience with the communities they serve are trusted in a way that external organisations rarely are. That trust is what allows aid distribution to proceed safely and effectively.
Every partner we work with is verified, monitored, and accountable for the use of funds. We do not release money without a clear delivery plan and a reporting requirement. Every truck of medicine, every mobile clinic session, every food pack distribution is tracked and reported back to our team.
Why donate to this Gaza and Palestine appeal through Your Impact Foundation?
There are many organisations responding to the crisis in Gaza and Palestine. Here is why thousands of UK donors have chosen Your Impact Foundation:
We are UK-registered and fully accountable. Your Impact Foundation holds UK Charity Commission registration (No. 1192710) and is fully compliant with UK charity law. Your donation is tracked, reported, and subject to full financial transparency.
We are Shariah-compliant. All Zakat donated through Your Impact Foundation is distributed in a fully Shariah-compliant manner, with 100% reaching eligible recipients. The displaced, food-insecure, and medically underserved populations of Gaza and Palestine are among the most clearly eligible Zakat recipients in the world today.
We move fast. Our pre-funded emergency reserve and established partner network means we do not wait for a new appeal to build before aid begins to flow. When a medicine shortage is reported, we respond. When a mobile clinic needs funding to reach a new displacement zone, we act.
We cover what others don’t. High-profile organisations attract the majority of public attention and fundraising. Your Impact Foundation directs resources to specific, targeted interventions — medicine trucks, mobile clinics, food packs — that fill the gaps left by larger operations.
Your donation is not theoretical. A £250 donation is a quarter of a truck of critical medicine — a real, physical delivery of antibiotics, pain relief, and surgical supplies to a medical point in Gaza. A £1,000 donation is a full truck. A £5,000 donation is a mobile clinic. These are not vague promises. They are specific outcomes.
Is my donation to Gaza and Palestine Zakat-eligible?
Yes. Gaza’s 2.3 million people — approximately 90% of whom have been displaced — represent one of the most clearly eligible populations for Zakat distribution in the world today. The vast majority meet multiple criteria for Zakat eligibility: they are among the poor (fuqara), the destitute (masakeen), and those whose livelihoods have been destroyed by circumstances entirely beyond their control.
Donations to medical aid in Gaza — medicines, mobile clinics, healthcare supplies — are a fully permissible use of Zakat when directed to eligible recipients. Your Impact Foundation ensures 100% of Zakat reaches those individuals, with no deductions for administration.
Your donation can also be made as Sadaqah — voluntary charity that earns reward regardless of the recipient’s technical Zakat eligibility — or as Sadaqah Jariyah, ongoing charity. Mobile clinic infrastructure, community health capacity building, and long-term nutritional support programmes all carry the potential for ongoing benefit and reward long after your initial gift.
How to donate — and what your money delivers
Every pound you give to Your Impact Foundation’s Gaza and Palestine appeal goes directly to active aid programmes. Here is a clear breakdown of what each level of donation delivers:
| Donation | What it provides |
|---|---|
| £40 | Emergency food pack for a family in acute need |
| £50 | A full month of food for a family with no income or supply |
| £100 | Life-saving medical aid for one person in urgent clinical need |
| £250 | A quarter of a truck of critical medicines delivered to crisis areas |
| £500 | Half a truck of essential medicines to communities with limited healthcare |
| £1,000 | A full truck of life-saving medicines — antibiotics, surgical supplies, chronic disease medications |
| £5,000 | A mobile medical clinic reaching patients with no other healthcare access |
No amount is too small. A £40 food pack prevents the malnutrition that leads to medical crisis. A £100 medicine contribution is part of the collective funding that fills a truck. And a £5,000 mobile clinic gift is a decision that reaches hundreds of patients who would otherwise receive nothing.

Summary: what your donation to Gaza and Palestine does
Gaza’s healthcare system has been brought to the edge of total collapse. More than 60% of hospitals are non-functional. Medicines are at zero stock. And a population of over 2 million people — 90% of them displaced — is navigating a medical crisis with almost no functioning infrastructure to turn to.
Your Impact Foundation is not going to solve that alone. But we are going to do everything within our reach — one medicine truck, one mobile clinic, one emergency food pack at a time.
Every donation you make is a specific, traceable act of humanitarian response. It is not a vague contribution to a large fund. It is a quarter of a truck of antibiotics. A month of food for a family with a malnourished child. A mobile clinic session for a mother who has nowhere else to go.
Give today. Give specifically. Give where it counts.
