Loaves of bread handed out every day in Gaza, along with 500 hot family meals

Our ongoing work

Four practical ways to change a life

01

Sponsor an orphan

In Gaza, 230 identified orphans receive food, clothing, hygiene supplies, healthcare and schooling thanks to their sponsors. A monthly commitment that changes a life for good.

€1 = 1 meal

500 hot family meals and more than 10,000 loaves of bread are handed out every day in Gaza. Just one euro provides a meal for a person in need.

Build an “Oasis” well

A well changes everything: health, girls’ schooling, farming. LIFE drills and maintains lasting water points in Africa and Asia – a gift that keeps working for years, and can also be made in a loved one’s name.
