Teachers of Ireland - Gaza Appeal

Hi,

My name is Aislinn and I am a primary teacher in Ireland. Like millions of people across the world I am struggling to come to terms with what is currently happening in Palestine, and feel completely helpless. I am aware of a huge community of Irish teachers on social media and have set up this gofundme so that we can rally together and support the work of UNICEF as they support the children living through this nightmare.

The escalation of violence has taken a horrendous toll on the lives of children and their families in what has often been described as the world’s largest prison: the Gaza Strip.

At least 2,913 children in Gaza have been killed, while more than 6,168 children have been injured. These numbers are expected to rise over the coming hours and days.

Death and devastation stalk the streets of Gaza, with homes, schools and hospitals destroyed, leaving more than 1.4 million people newly displaced.

Children and families are running out of food, water, electricity, medicine and safe access to hospitals, following days of air strikes and cuts to all supply routes.

Please stand with fellow teachers of Ireland and donate now to send vital aid to the children and people of Gaza, and the wider state of Palestine.

Funds donated directly to UNICEF Ireland. More info on how these fund are used on their website www.unicef.ie
