Food aid for malnourished children in Gaza Strip
2008-12-01 ~ 2009-11-30
Agency: Japan International Volunteer Centre
$24,000
REI and JVC will jointly support this project to help to improve the health condition of severely malnourished children in the Gaza Strip, where 80% of its residents are refugees.
Since the Palestinian Legislative Council (Parliament) election of 2006 and the subsequent action in 2007 the Gaza has been closed off and isolated. Only this closure has caused Gaza’s fragile economy to collapse.
