DEC member charities are responding right now in Gaza, Lebanon and the wider region, providing lifesaving food, water, shelter, medicine and so much more. They are ready to act wherever the needs are greatest, but they urgently need more funds to meet the huge levels of need. | Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC)

The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Middle East Humanitarian Appeal has raised an additional £6 million since December - £3 million from the public, matched by £3 million from the UK government. Hamish Falconer spoke to aid workers in the UK and Gaza about the vital difference this funding is making. | Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office

Today marks 60 years since the DEC was formed. In that time, you have given an astounding £2.4 billion to 77 appeals, responding to disasters every time we have called upon you to help. Thank you for your ongoing support ❤️ | Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC)
