In The Media
How is Samir Foundation’s work being reflected in the media?
Why does Palestine need your support?
Despite the ceasefire, Gaza is still living through the consequences of destruction. Hospitals remain damaged, universities are barely operating, and medical resources are critically scarce. What was once fragile is now on the edge of collapse.
Without urgent support, medical students may be forced to leave their education behind, and an already overwhelmed healthcare system could lose the very doctors it desperately needs. The cost of inaction will not be measured in buildings — but in lives that could have been saved.
