Dear friends and family,

Some of you have asked about charitable giving to aid and advocate for peace for the people of Gaza and surrounding region during this time of unprecedented genocide. Here are five that you could consider. All are highly reputable and tax-deductible in the USA. All are verified 501(c)(3).

UNRWA USA
P.O. Box 18697, Washington DC 20036
Charity Navigator 4 Stars
An independent 501c3 nonprofit organization that provides support for the humanitarian work of the United Nations Agency for Palestine Refugees. UNRWA is the largest agency of the United Nations, employing over 30,000 staff, 99% of which are locally recruited Palestinians.

Jewish Voice for Peace
PO Box 589, Berkeley CA 94701
Charity Navigator 4 Stars
JVP is the largest Jewish Palestine solidarity organization in the world. Help shift the narrative: Jewish safety has nothing to do with Israel's oppression and murder of Palestinians. As anti-Zionist Jews, we know that this genocide is the result of the political logic of Zionism.

Palestine Children's Relief Fund
PO Box 1926, Kent, OH 44240
Charity Navigator 4 Stars
PCRF is the primary humanitarian organization in Palestine, delivering crucial and life-saving medical relief and humanitarian aid where it is needed most.  Access to essential resources like food, clean water, and healthcare is severely limited. Urgent action is needed.

Save the Children
501 Kings Highway East, Suite 400, Fairfield, CT 06825
Charity Navigator 4 Stars
We are present in the West Bank and Gaza. Save the Children is calling for an immediate, definitive ceasefire to save and protect the lives of children in Gaza. In the past year, childhood in Gaza has been completely shattered, and horror has become a daily reality for children.

World Central Kitchen
PO Box 96538, Washington DC 20090-6538
Charity Navigator 4 Stars
In 2010, Chef José Andrés, ready to use his culinary knowledge and talent to help, headed to Haiti following a devastating earthquake. Since October 2023, WCK has distributed more than 75 million meals in Gaza to families impacted by escalating conflict in the region.

I regret the error in my previous message. Today I learned that one charity address I sent, for Palestine Children's Relief Fund, is obsolete. My own check was returned. 
Here is the correct address:

Palestine Children's Relief Fund
P.O. Box 861716, Los Angeles, CA 90086
Charity Navigator 4 Stars
PCRF is the primary humanitarian organization in Palestine, delivering crucial and life-saving medical relief and humanitarian aid where it is needed most.  Access to essential resources like food, clean water, and healthcare is severely limited. Urgent action is needed.
