GEM MENA team, together with the @hcicanada youth ambassador @renadfromgaza, distributed hundreds of hygiene kits to families within the tent villages of Deir al-Balah in Gaza.
The families were extremely grateful for this aid and were truly shocked at the quality of the products. They told us that a lot of these items have not been seen in the markets since before the war.

There is nothing more joyful than seeing a smiling and happy kid.

GEM teams deployed out to another Tekeia (field kitchen) in Gaza to distribute flour and beans.
This kitchen cooks meals for over 2000 people in the surrounding tent community. People very happy to see the team arrive with fresh supply as their store was almost empty.
GEM MENA deployed to a Tekeia in the heart of Al Mawasi Khan Yunis to distribute critical food supplies for the kitchen to carry on cooking for the displaced people within the surrounding areas.
GEM teams deployed to the Khan Yunis port to distribute bags of flour to 4000 people who have set up camp in the recent weeks due to the latest evacuation orders.
This port only a few weeks ago was completely empty and now has become a home to over 10,000 people.
GEM MENA team deployed out to a small tent school located on the coastal road of Deir Al Balah to distribute fresh bottled water to a group of children who have been getting missed by the water truck on a daily basis.
This is just one of many that we are trying to reach. Getting aid into Gaza is slow and dangerous and the most recent evacuation orders have led to main supply roads becoming increasingly difficult to navigate due to huge amounts of people now living on them.
Despite these challenges, GEM will continue to support.

Resumo das estatísticas
A GEM BStrong prestou uma ajuda de emergência significativa às seguintes 226 cidades e vilas
Fase 1: Alívio de Catástrofes
No dia 6 de fevereiro, dois grandes terramotos atingiram a Turquia e a Síria de manhã cedo, com réplicas que continuam a ocorrer mais de uma semana depois. Dezenas de milhares de pessoas perderam a vida e inúmeras outras ficaram feridas. Em junho de 2023, mais de 8 milhões de casas e edifícios terão sido afectados, deixando centenas de milhares de desalojados. O terramoto de Kahramanmaras é agora considerado a catástrofe natural mais mortífera, pelo menos, da última década. Devido ao facto de a GEM estar preparada para qualquer catástrofe mundial, a nossa equipa pôde ser enviada imediatamente e estar no terreno no mesmo dia.
GEM BStrong tinha um compromisso inicial de $10.000.000 em ajuda crítica, que rapidamente aumentou para $20.000.000 uma vez que pudemos ver a escala incomensurável da catástrofe. Imediatamente, pudemos utilizar aviões de carga através de uma parceria com a Embaixada da Turquia em Washington, D.C. e o Consulado Geral em Miami através da Turkish Airlines. Esta ajuda virá sob a forma de alimentos, produtos de higiene, roupa de cama e tendas, vestuário de salvamento, e muito mais. À medida que as necessidades crescem e progridem, assim como a nossa resposta.
A nossa sede em Miami, FL, filial ocidental dos EUA em Chico, CA, e a filial europeia em Varsóvia, Polónia, estão neste momento todas a recolher fornecimentos para enviar para a Turquia e Síria. Todas as mercadorias recolhidas serão transportadas para o nosso armazém em Mersin, Turquia, e distribuídas pelas regiões mais afectadas ao longo das zonas sísmicas.
Since February, we have distributed tens of thousands of our Family Necessity Kits to affected families in both Turkey and Syria. We have also been able to distribute major quantities of hygiene products, new clothing, new shoes, bedding and home goods. We have reached hundreds of thousands of individuals in 7 provinces, reaching almost 200 cities. Just as we do in our other branches, we have established long-standing infrastructure to be able to sustain both Turkey and Syria for the long term.
