Here’s a list of organizations that I find trustworthy after checking them, and to which I donate too. Why donate? Read here.

UNRWA

I recommend donating to UNRWA, they are the agency created by the United Nations to help Palestinians specifically. If you have doubts about it because Israel accused a few of their employees, remember that UNRWA is a UN agency, while Israel is a USA agency.

UPDATE 2024/03/09:

Israel hasn’t provided evidence for their claims so far, even USA said they have “low confidence” that some of the UNRWA staff had participated in the attack and that “there was a lack of evidence” to suggest Hamas partnered with UNRWA:

We also have a guarantee from Bill Deree, UNRWA’s Washington D.C. representative, that their help is going to Gazan people in need — watch this interview:

You can donate to UNRWA here:

They have several options and appeals for specific needs, including the Gaza Emergency Appeal, and Jenin Emergency Appeal.

I donate mostly to UNWRA myself, but I’m also diversifying help.

If you know of trustworthy organizations or refugee centers/camps that help Palestinians, let me know — please provide links/materials that help verify their trustworthiness. By trustworthy I mean the money is going to Palestinians in need, not corrupted people. I’ll keep an updated list here for anyone who wants to donate.
