Comments Off on World Central Kitchen Feeds Hungry People in Crisis
GAZA CITY, May 28, 2021 (ENS) – During the past week, close to 100,000 people were displaced in Gaza due to escalating violence and airstrikes between Israel and Hamas and many are now hungry. At least 2,800 families have lost their homes completely and many more are dealing with power and water outages, making it difficult to access food.
The recent destruction compounds Gaza’s longstanding humanitarian crisis due to chronic food insecurity and the added toll of the COVID-19 pandemic.
To prepare thousands of fresh, nourishing meals for people displaced or unable to access food in Gaza, the World Central Kitchen, WCK, is partnering with the American Near East Refugee Aid organization Anera, an American nonprofit that provides humanitarian and development aid to the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, Lebanon and Jordan.
Anera and World Central Kitchen partner to provide emergency food assistance in Gaza
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, May 19, 2021 (WAFA) - Anera, the American Near East Refugee Aid agency, and World Central Kitchen (WCK), a nonprofit organization that uses the power of food to nourish communities and strengthen economies in times of crisis and beyond, are partnering to deliver emergency meals to the rising numbers of injured and displaced families in Gaza.
The UN now considers 58,000 Palestinian families in Gaza to be internally displaced persons, seeking shelter as a result of damage and destruction from escalating attacks in the past week. Thousands of those are displaced from over 1,100 homes that have been destroyed or suffered severe or major damage. In addition to displacement, power and water outages also make it difficult for non-displaced households to provide meals for their displaced relatives and neighbors.
