How is Zakat spent to help the Palestinian people?

• Food aid: Providing hot meals, bread, and essential groceries to families who are struggling to find food due to poverty and occupation. For example, our kitchens in Gaza prepare daily meals, Feeding hundreds of Palestinian Muslims.
• Water aid: Building clean water wells and distributing drinking water to areas suffering from water shortages. We have already established water filtration systems in refugee camps to prevent the spread of waterborne diseases.
• Medicine help: Supplying essential medications and supporting local hospitals that lack basic resources. We help cover the cost of surgeries for injured civilians and provide medical kits for emergency situations.
• Organizing informal camps: One of the most critical actions we take is setting up temporary shelters for displaced families. These camps provide protection, food, and medical care for those who have lost their homes due to bombings and attacks.
• Public health, especially women’s health and hygiene: We focus on educating women about hygiene practices, providing sanitary products, and ensuring access to prenatal and postnatal care. In crowded camps, we establish waste disposal systems and manage sewage to prevent the spread of diseases.
• Reconstruction and equipping public places such as electricity, water pipes, hospitals, and roads: We rebuild damaged infrastructure, including hospitals and water systems, and restore electricity to schools and public facilities. For example, we repaired water pipelines in Khan Yunis in Gaza and reconstructed roads to improve access to essential services.

Why is helping informal camps important?

Organizing informal camps is one of the most critical actions that can be taken to support Palestinians. These camps provide shelter, safety, and basic necessities to displaced families who have lost everything due to ongoing conflicts and occupation.

Moreover, managing public health within these camps is vital to prevent the spread of diseases and maintain the well-being of the people. This includes proper waste and garbage disposal, drainage systems, and the creation of sewage systems to manage wastewater from toilets and field baths. These measures are essential to maintain hygiene and prevent the outbreak of epidemics.
