Palestinian Mutual Aid Groups Responding to Gaza’s Winter Floods

Israel’s ongoing genocide has destroyed homes and infrastructure, while its blockade prevents Palestinians from rebuilding, leaving families exposed to winter storms. Now, heavy rain and strong winds have flooded displacement camps across Gaza, affecting 70,000 people, while only 20% of shelter needs are being met.

For the past two years, a Palestinian-led mutual aid network rooted in solidarity and Sumud (Our defiant resistance) has supported families across Gaza with shelter, water and direct financial assistance. PIPD, alongside BuildPalestine, Rawa Fund and other partners, helps mobilise resources to sustain this community-led work. The initiatives below are connected through our network, each responding to a particular need, community, or gap and we want you to know them.
