Aid donations for Gaza 'fell dramatically after ceasefire'
The Guardian
|November 22, 2025
Gaza has seen a "catastrophic" drop-off in donations since the ceasefire was announced despite a desperate humanitarian crisis compounded by poor weather, fundraisers have warned.
Crowdfunded money for families has been harder to raise since October, according to organisers.
Megan Hall, based in Australia, who runs 95 mutual aid funds for individual families in Gaza and has raised more than US$200,000 (£152,700) since February 2024, said donations declined significantly after the 10 October ceasefire.
During the war, Hall said, she was consistently able to send about $5,000 a week to people in Gaza. For the month of October, she said she had raised just over $2,000 across all of her campaigns.
"The drop in donations is catastrophic. It feels like with the so-called 'ceasefire' the world thinks Palestinians don't need our help any more," Hall said.
