The people of Gaza need help

Life in the densely crowded Palestinian Territory has grown increasingly dire following the Israeli invasion in the past year. According to UNICEF , roughly 1.7 million Gazans are internally displaced. These people are suffering under the constant threat of bombardment as well as a deepening famine and lack of resources. Nearly half of the displaced Gazans struggling to stay alive are children. In this thread I would like to post links to several reputable and effective charities (as sourced from Charity Navigator and various news articles) aimed at helping the people of Palestine, and I encourage everyone who is able to donate any amount they can. If you know of more charities, please link to them in the comments.

Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund: US-based charity, provides medical care to afflicted children.

Médecins Sans Frontières: French charity active in Gaza.

Palestinian Red Crescent Society: International Red Cross chapter.

American Near East Aid: Long-running American charity.

World Central Kitchen: Food aid, currently operating in Gaza.
