The DEC (Disasters Emergency Committee) brings together 15 leading UK aid charities to raise funds quickly and efficiently in times of humanitarian crisis overseas. These include Save the Children, Oxfam, British Red Cross, Action Against Hunger, and many more.
In times of crisis, people in life-and-death situations urgently need the DEC’s help. Their mission is to save, protect, and rebuild lives by working with the communities affected.
The Barratt Foundation has donated £50,000 to support the DEC’s Middle East Humanitarian Appeal. Donations to the appeal are helping DEC charities provide lifesaving aid in Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank, including:
- providing hot meals, dry goods, food baskets, and support for community kitchens feeding the displaced;
- distributing clean drinking water and hygiene kits to improve sanitation in camps and shelters; and
- supporting field hospitals and medical clinics in Gaza with equipment and medical staff to treat the many sick and injured.
The Barratt Foundation is proud to be supporting those most in need.
