ABOUT
Responding to Crises
Gaza has endured 15 years of closure and four bombing campaigns that have left lives and livelihoods in ruins.
From October 2023 to 2025, war in Gaza and Lebanon created unprecedented humanitarian crises. Entire neighborhoods were flattened, health systems overwhelmed, and families displaced with nowhere to go. These emergencies came on top of years of hardship: 15+ years of closure and blockade in Gaza, economic collapse in Lebanon, and protracted occupation in the West Bank.
In every crisis – whether war, pandemic, or natural disaster – Anera responds swiftly. Our local teams supply hospitals with medical donations, provide daily meals and clean water, support families with essential supplies, and coordinate complex logistics to keep aid flowing.
When bombs destroy schools, clinics, and farms, Anera rebuilds. We help families restore their livelihoods through cash-for-work, vocational training, and support for small businesses and agriculture.
For children—especially vulnerable to the trauma of war—our psychosocial programs offer safe spaces to draw, dance, and play. We also support caregivers with tools to manage their own trauma and better support their children.
In times of crisis, Anera is there—on the ground, trusted, and ready to respond.
Wars
have devastated Gaza 6 times in the last 17 years.
The most recent wars were in 2008-09, 2012, 2014, 2021, 2022 and 2023-25..
Counseling
helps victims of trauma to heal and move forward.
Children are the most vulnerable to psychological effects of war and other emergencies.
Infrastructure
can fall victim to wars and natural disasters.
Water and sewage networks, roads, fields, schools and hospitals are all at risk.
"What I saw can only be described as a near-apocalyptic landscape. At the same time, Palestinians in Gaza are unbowed, their well-known resourcefulness on full-display."
