In Khan Younis alone, UNRWA is opening temporary learning spaces in tents and shelters, and has reopened 38 new emergency classrooms—tiny pockets of hope where childhood has been fractured.

UNRWA isn’t only delivering assistance.
UNRWA is defending the right to childhood.
November 20, 2025 at 6:54 PM
Even under siege and fire, UNRWA continues to show up for the children of Gaza.

UNRWA is providing emergency shelter, food assistance (when they can), clean water, medical care, vaccines, and psychosocial support to more than 500,000 children.

More than half of Gaza’s population are growing up with trauma no human should ever experience.

The rights to learn, to play, to rest, to feel safe—rights the world claims to protect—are being violated daily.
November 20, 2025 at 6:54 PM
Half of Gaza’s population are children.

On World Children’s Day (November 20), we can’t talk about children’s rights without talking about the children of Gaza. Children who haven’t just lost access to school, but the basic foundations of childhood itself.

Ambassador (ret.) Philip C. Wilcox, Jr. has shaped UNRWA USA across every chapter of our history — as Board Chairperson, then Chair Emeritus, and now Board Member Emeritus.

Through it all, he has kept us grounded in principle and focused on the dignity of Palestine refugees.

The photographer who took these shots in August 2024 noted: “Maybe this is among the very few photos [since October 2023] that made me happy.”

Let’s clear something up. UNRWA is STILL in Gaza.
The UN agency never left. Its 12,000 Palestinian staff on the ground in Gaza never left and has no intention of going anywhere.

🕯️ In every culture, we honor those who’ve left too soon.
On Día de los Muertos, we remember the more than 380 UNRWA humanitarian workers who were killed while carrying out their duty in Gaza since October 2023.

Halloween’s horrors are pretend. Gaza’s are not. And unlike the movies, the horror in Gaza doesn’t end when we turn off the TV.

Dublin’s Famine Memorial stands in memory of Ireland’s Great Hunger — a time when food existed, yet millions starved because access was denied. Because of who they were.
A haunting reminder: famine is never just about scarcity.
It’s about power.
It’s man-made.

🌍👀 The world is watching. The ceasefire must be respected, and civilians must be protected in accordance with international law.

If you believe in the protection of human rights for all, share this message.

Honoring #IndigenousPeoplesDay

Today, October 13, we honor the strength and resilience of Native communities across Turtle Island—and recognize the shared stories of displacement, sumud (steadfastness), and survival that connect Indigenous peoples and Palestine refugees.

Mental health is a human right.
October 10 is #WorldMentalHealthDay, a time to recognize the importance of mental health for all.
For over a decade, UNRWA USA has worked to normalize mental health care for Palestine refugees in Gaza, where children have only known life under siege and bombardment.

For two years too long, the people of Gaza have endured continued mass forced displacement and destruction under what experts and UN human rights specialists know to be a genocide.

Children in Gaza are being slaughtered.
While sleeping.
While sheltering in UNRWA schools.
While waiting in line for food and water.
September 26, 2025 at 3:54 PM
Israeli military ground operations in Gaza City, Jabalya, and across North Gaza continue to intensify, causing yet another wave of mass displacement.
