Relief for Gaza, funded by neighbours

Many small gifts, one steady thread.

Many people giving a little every month can keep partner bakeries, water deliveries and classrooms in Gaza running, and we publish where every dollar goes.

Why steady giving

A bakery cannot plan around a viral week.

Big appeals arrive in spikes: a flood of gifts when the news is loud, then silence. Partners on the ground cannot hire bakers or order flour on that rhythm. A large base of small monthly gifts arrives on the same day every month, whatever is trending.

$4,500 a month could cover about 188 sacks of flour on Gaza's tables. That is 900 people giving $5 a month. Sample

At $21.70 for one sack of flour on Gaza's tables (ILS 70.00), cost as of November 2026, counted after estimated card and bank fees. Gifts are pooled, so this is an equivalent, not a purchase. Live figures come only from dated partner invoices.

Where the money goes

Three steps, all of them visible.

  1. Vetted partners

    We fund established local projects that pass due diligence and a fresh sanctions check before every transfer. Two people must approve each payout.

  2. Every dollar on the ledger

    Each gift, fee and transfer is a row in an append-only ledger. Mistakes are fixed with new rows, never by editing old ones.

  3. Published for anyone

    Monthly statements, partner reports and our tax filings are public. Delays and bad news are published too.

Programs

Where gifts go.

Progress is calculated from transfers actually sent, never typed in by hand.

"Could cover", never "you fed": gifts are pooled and sent to board-approved programs in monthly transfers. Every figure comes from a dated unit cost (this one is a beta sample, to be replaced by partner invoices). Counts are after estimated card and bank fees. How we calculate this

Transparency

Check our books yourself.

Every ledger row is chained to the one before it with a fingerprint: a short code computed from every row ever written. If anyone changed an old entry, the fingerprint would no longer match the one we published.

  • See money in and money out by month, no account needed.
  • Compare today's fingerprint with the one you saw last time.
  • Read partner reports and our annual filings as they are published.

A note from our founder

"No single stitch is impressive. Thousands of them, made patiently and in order, become something that lasts. We think relief can be built the same way."
