For a family living in a tent or damaged home, rain can mean a soaked mattress, wet clothes and nowhere dry to sleep.
There are practical things we can do together. A stronger tarp. Drainage around a tent. Blankets, winter clothes and dry bedding. A repair that helps keep the rain outside.
Before the Rains brings Gaza Support Network and UfDA together in a winter campaign shaped by families and local teams. We invite you to turn care into something a family can feel.

RELATIONSHIP IS WHERE WE BEGIN
We stay close.
We listen.
We act together.
The people closest to a need should help shape the response. That is how care becomes useful.
Start with a conversation
Families tell us what matters most. Existing relationships help turn a general appeal into specific, practical priorities.
Work with local knowledge
Local teams and skilled workers help identify what can be bought, repaired or prepared with the materials and access available.
Keep the connection going
GSN's relationships continue beyond this campaign. Listening, feedback and follow-up help us respond as needs change.

GSN archive · October 2025What we made possible last winter
Is this only about preparing for the first rains?
The campaign supports families before the rains and throughout winter. It includes shelter protection, drainage, dry bedding, warm clothing, shoes and blankets, alongside targeted repairs where feasible.
How are needs and priorities decided?
Through conversations with families and local teams. Priorities reflect specific household and community needs, local knowledge, available materials and what can be done safely.
Does my donation buy the exact item shown?
The amounts show what a gift could help make possible. Donations are pooled rather than reserved for an individual item. Prices, access and availability can change, so resources are directed to verified needs.
Where do I make my donation?
The donation buttons take you to the Before the Rains campaign on Chuffed.org. You can choose your amount and review the campaign and payment details there. If you need help with a donation route, please contact info@gazasupportnet.com.
Can I help without making a donation?
Absolutely. Share the campaign personally, introduce us to someone who might help, invite your community to take part or explore a matching gift with a donor or workplace. Every new connection can create possibilities.
