Displaced From Gaza โ Starting Again in Egypt
Leaving Gaza does not mean that hardship ends. Families rebuilding their lives in Egypt can face rent, food, healthcare, medicines, education and everyday living costs, often after losing established income and being separated from relatives.
Some households are also trying to support loved ones elsewhere while meeting their own needs in Egypt. Our aim is to provide practical, dignified assistance according to assessed need and available funding.
What Families Are Facing
Displacement can place pressure on several parts of family life at the same time.
Housing & Rent
Finding and maintaining suitable accommodation.
Food & Essentials
Groceries, household necessities and everyday costs.
Healthcare
Medicines, treatment, eye tests, glasses and other assessed medical needs.
Family Stability
Education, employment and rebuilding day-to-day independence.
