Someone prompted me to ask hubby about donating to Gaza last night and this is what he told me...

He had a friend who is a multi millionaire here in the states. This friend had family in Gaza so he was sending money over to help not only his family but anyone else the family could help. The US government found out about it and stripped this man of his US citizenship. He had been in the states for over 20 years and they pulled it out from under him just like that. They took his green card and had him deported with no return allowed. They warned him that if he had any other foreign friends who were helping Gaza, he should warn them that this will happen to them too because helping gaza in any way is aiding terrorist organizations.

This halted my idea of helping because although I wish with my heart and soul that I could do something for them...I don't want my husband to be deported. So what is left to do??? Pray. I'm praying as hard as I can every day that the remaining civilians stay safe and unharmed...It's sad....

This is precisely why my husband did research last night and found the 2 UN agencies listed above that one can donate through. He doesn't want the government ceasing the money from a charity without it getting there. I can't imagine if one donates through the UN that there would be any trouble.

But since the UN cannot even get in how will the money eventually get to Gaza?

There have been several dozen UNRWA aid trucks that have made it in in the last few days, although not nearly enough to meet the demand. But then, that's better then nothing at this point.
