The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation reached a milestone Friday: The humanitarian aid organization backed by the U.S. and Israel has delivered 100 million meals to the people of Gaza since its launch at the end of May.
“Reaching 100 million free meals delivered directly to the people of Gaza in just two months of operations is a moment of deep pride and reflection,” the Rev. Johnnie Moore, the group’s executive chairman, told The Daily Signal.
“This milestone belongs first and foremost to the courageous aid workers, including our Palestinian partners, who make it possible against extraordinary challenges,” Moore said, adding that the foundation’s workers “risk their lives every day to help those in urgent need, and they deserve the world’s respect and thanks.”
A number of Gaza Humanitarian Foundation workers have been injured while working in Gaza, and Hamas killed a dozen local workers in June, according to the aid group. Hamas has also placed bounties on the heads of American and local foundation workers.
