Bring Care In Crisis: Delivering Urgent Medical Support to Gaza and the West Bank

War is catastrophic, it brings bloodshed. Peace brings love, peace brings life – Dr Mehrad, Al Ahli’s Medical Director

In Gaza and the West Bank, communities are facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. Hospitals and clinics, overwhelmed by demand and severely under-resourced, are struggling to provide life-saving care. Through our Bring Care In Crisis Lent appeal, USPG is partnering with the Diocese of Jerusalem to support healthcare services that are a lifeline for those in desperate need.

Millions of people in Gaza and the West Bank are living amidst conflict, displacement, and economic hardship. Many are suffering from malnutrition, respiratory illnesses, and injuries without reliable access to medical care. Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza, despite being damaged by conflict, continues to provide essential treatment – including specialized burn care and services for people with disabilities – at no cost to patients, placing a heavy financial burden on the church.

Beyond Gaza, our support extends to hospitals and clinics in the West Bank, including St. Luke’s Hospital and the Penman Clinic, ensuring that critical medical services remain accessible to vulnerable communities. These facilities provide emergency care, maternal and child health services, and vital education on hygiene and disease prevention.
