Saudi Donations to Gaza Through Sahem Surpass $158 Million

Over $158 million in aid has been contributed to Gaza through the Sahem platform, backed by the Saudi humanitarian organization KSrelief. This initiative stands as a crucial support system for those affected by the conflict in Gaza.
Sahem, an online platform, has connected technology with charitable giving, allowing for a trustworthy and streamlined method of donation. So far, it has attracted over 1.22 million donors, demonstrating Saudi solidarity during a time of crisis.

Following the call to action from King Salman and Crown Muhammad bin Salman, numerous Saudi individuals, businesses, and community groups have rallied to donate. Sahem has enabled these contributions with ease, reflecting the Saudi commitment to supporting Palestinians in need.

The platform ensures donor security and has expedited aid delivery, including sending 32 relief flights with 695 tons of essential supplies and four ships carrying 3.787 tons of aid to Gaza. These shipments included medical supplies, food, shelter, and ambulances, totaling 4.481 tons of relief items delivered.

Collaborating with global organizations like the UN Relief and Works Agency, WHO, the Red Cross, and the World Food Programme, Sahem has ensured $40 million of the aid meets the highest humanitarian standards.

Sahem exemplifies digital humanitarian outreach, providing a safe, efficient, and transparent way for donors to assist. Its straightforward interface ensures direct donations without administrative fees, maximizing the impact of every contribution.

Donations to the Gaza campaign can be made via the Sahem website, https://sahem.ksrelief.org/Gaza, directly to the specified bank account at Al-Rajhi Bank, or through the Sahem mobile app available on Apple and Google Play stores.
