“We were living very close to the shore. Yesterday it rained so hard that the sea overflowed and flooded our camp. The waves swept away my little daughter; if I hadn’t reached her in time, she would have drowned. Every tent, ours included, was washed away. We are homeless once again. I don’t know what we will do now. I have no strength left. Everyone here needs help.”

— Mariam, Gaza

For millions of people already fighting to survive war, natural disasters, displacement and crisis, the arrival of winter brings even harder days. The cold is a serious threat, above all to children, the elderly and the sick.

Last year, together, we reached millions of people and helped them get through the winter safe and warm. This year, we will once again bring them:

• Beds and blankets so they can sleep warm and safe
• Boots to protect them from rain and mud
• Coats, scarves, beanies and gloves to shield them from the cold
• Stoves, fuel and coal to heat their shelters

Join us, and together let’s bring warmth to millions of people holding on to life in war- and crisis-stricken regions such as Gaza and Lebanon.
