Tucked between tents and tarps in Gaza’s temporary camps, the needs of babies and toddlers are urgent and often invisible. In the shadow of conflict and displacement, one of the most essential forms of care has become one of the hardest to provide: clean diapers and infant formula. 
Inside a small rehab clinic, five individuals—three children and two adults—are measured, fitted, and supported as they take new steps forward. These are not dramatic moments, but they are deeply meaningful ones. Each fitting session is personal. Each person has a story. Each adjustment brings them closer to independence.
We are so so grateful for everyone who donated and supported the work we do! All money raised will be going to humanitarian efforts in Palestine and for Palestinians.
In a quiet corner of a tent community, rows of families line up under open sky. The dust rises gently as volunteers begin distributing parcels—no fanfare, just steady hands and shared understanding. Inside each package basic necessities such as potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, (and other vegetables available), sardines, and tinned foods, cooking oil, and flour. We have prepared many parcels and each time the content differs depending on what is available.
In a recent gesture of solidarity, much-needed medical and comfort supplies were delivered to a hospital in Gaza—quiet support that is making a meaningful difference on the ground.
On January 16, 2025, food distributions took place in southern Gaza to support displaced families affected by ongoing conflict. Volunteers prepared and delivered trays of rice with chicken at multiple locations. The effort was coordinated with support from local community members and donors affiliated with We Will Return (Watan).
Medical relief is often measured in numbers, but its true impact is found in moments of care—moments when the right supplies are available at the right time. Through its ongoing work in Gaza, Wattan dba WWR, has been helping ensure that families, hospitals, and caregivers have access to basic but vital medical items. 
On January 7, 2025, a local team in southern Gaza prepared and distributed fresh flatbread to families living in displacement camps. The effort provided a basic but essential food item to hundreds of people, many of whom lack regular access to cooking facilities.
On January 1, 2025, as the final night of Hanukkah coincided with the dawn of a new year, community members gathered in West Hartford Center near the Noah Webster statue to light the menorah. This candle lighting event, organized by the Hartford Jewish Organizing Collective and Jewish Voice for Peace, provided a space for reflection, unity, and hope.  |
