DONATE TO GAZA
Below is a list of charities I personally recommend donating to, in order to help feed Gaza's severely malnourished population, 91% of whom are "facing crisis levels or worse" food insecurity and malnutrition as of the ceasefire being declared on Sunday 19th January 2025:
OXFAM
https://www.oxfam.org.uk/oxfam-in-action/current-emergencies/gaza-crisis-appeal/
Your donation will help provide emergency food, clean water and hygiene kits, and repair water and wastewater networks in Gaza. And your support will help people forced to flee their homes due to the violence in Lebanon.
UNRWA
(United National Relief and Work Agency for Palestinian Refugees)
https://donate.unrwa.org/gaza/~my-donation
Right now, Palestine Refugee families are counting on UNRWA - and on you - to help them through unimaginable hardships. Your donation ensures that food is delivered, children are cared for, and hope remains alive. Together, we can keep this lifeline strong.
Human Appeal

It’s impossible to overstate the utter destruction that’s still going on in Gaza. Each day more people are injured, more children made orphans, more families forced to flee once again.
But after a year of devastation, much more is needed than simply food and water. While we continue to help families to meet their basic needs with nutritious meals and consistent clean water, we also ask that our supporters help us to provide hope for the future.
We’re launching three new projects to improve living conditions, support education, and spread hope.
Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) is a Palestinian-led movement for freedom, justice and equality. BDS upholds the simple principle that Palestinians are entitled to the same rights as the rest of humanity.
It seeks to achieve this by:
BOYCOTTS involve withdrawing support from Israel's apartheid regime, complicit Israeli sporting, cultural and academic institutions, and from all Israeli and international companies engaged in violations of Palestinian human rights.
DIVESTMENT campaigns urge banks, local councils, churches, pension funds and universities to withdraw investments from the State of Israel and all Israeli and international companies that sustain Israeli apartheid.
SANCTIONS campaigns pressure governments to fulfil their legal obligations to end Israeli apartheid, and not aid or assist its maintenance, by banning business with illegal Israeli settlements, ending military trade and free-trade agreements, as well as suspending Israel's membership in international forums such as UN bodies and FIFA.
Ultimately, money talks in this World of ours and by Boycotting, Divesting from and Sanctioning Israel, it's apartheid and occupation, as well as its genocide, can be brought to an end, just like South Africa's Apartheid was through similar methods.
I am already boycotting complicit companies including HP, McDonalds, Burger King, Coca Cola, Disney+ and Amazon, which I otherwise would have normally used, and I will not use any of the other Boycott Targets (above) in the future, using alternatives instead.

Join your local Stop the War Coalition Branch

ANTI-RACISM ORGANISATIONS
Below is a list of Anti-Racism Organisations I would recommend to help counteract the racism, which has not only provided the support for the Gaza Genocide, but which fuel the rise of the Far-Right in this country.
Although only a few percent of people in the UK would openly say they support the Gaza Genocide and the Far-Right, there are many more who "quietly support" them, and many others who have allowed them to happen by doing nothing to stop them.
Even if you believe your voice doesn't matter, or you do not wish to speak out yourself, you can do a great deal with your donations to support these organisations and the vital work they do.
STAND UP TO RACISM
https://standuptoracism.org.uk/
Across Europe we see the rise of far right and fascist forces, from Marine Le Pen in France to the AfD in Germany.
The far right are a threat to all decent people. The trial of Finsbury Park terrorist Darren Osborne, who murdered Makram Ali, heard that he was radicalised by reading material by Tommy Robinson. When Robinson was leader of the English Defence League, it attacked Muslims, trade unions and strikes.
All those who oppose this must join in a united mass movement powerful enough to drive back the fascist. The majority of people in Britain abhor Robinson and the far right.
We are the majority, they are the few. Britain has a proud history of defeating fascists and racists. We can defeat them again. We must Stand Up to Racism, Islamophobia and antisemitism. We must unite and mobilise against the far right and fascism.
Holocaust Memorial Day Trust
The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust encourages remembrance in a world scarred by prejudice and systematic, targeted persecution. They promote and support Holocaust Memorial Day - the international day on 27 January. The Holocaust is central to Holocaust Memorial Day and we remember the 6 million Jews murdered during the Holocaust. They also commemorate the millions more people murdered through the Nazi persecution of other groups and in the more recent genocides recognised by the UK government, and the genocide in Darfur.

My name is Dr Thomas Lattimore and I am a Teacher from Oxford, UK. I have created Gaza is Human to showcase the humanity of real Palestinians living in Gaza, by showing you them doing normal everyday activities, showing them being human, just like you and me.
I have been critical of both sides of the conflict in Gaza; I strongly believe that it can only be resolved and justice can only be served by the full application of International Law to all of those who have done wrong, both Israel and Hamas.
Please donate using PayPal to help me advertise Gaza is Human as far and wide as possible, to inform other people in the United Kingdom about the humanity of real Palestinians living in Gaza. I am inputting a considerable amount of my own time and money (£1/day into Google Advertising) into the project, but the more money you can donate, the more I can do:

Your donation goes even further too since any money raised by Gaza is Human, through future monetisation of its Social Media (YouTube, TikTok), as well as other potential future sources of income (e.g. selling merchandise) will be donated directly to the Hind Rajab Foundation, which like this website, was set up in memory of Hind Rajab, who perished in the Gaza Genocide.
I will publish a regular summary below of how any donations have been spent.
Thank you for your support!
