Palestinian Model Bella Hadid Donates $50,000 to Shelter Displaced People in Gaza - Sarmad

Global model of Palestinian origin Bella Hadid launched a humanitarian initiative to provide urgent winter shelter supplies for 100 displaced families in the Gaza Strip, calling on her followers to support relief efforts.

In a post on her official Instagram account, Hadid explained that the onset of winter exacerbates the suffering of hundreds of thousands of families facing freezing temperatures inside dilapidated tents. She noted that estimates from relief organizations operating in the sector confirm the urgent need to provide at least 300,000 new tents.

As part of this campaign, Hadid contributed $50,000 to support the “Gaza Winter Tent Kits” project under the “Tents of Hope” initiative. Each relief kit includes a waterproof tent, along with blankets and mats to protect displaced families from cold and dampness.

The global model also addressed the dire humanitarian conditions in the sector, questioning the reasons that have forced millions of Palestinians into internal displacement within their own country, and emphasizing their fundamental right to live in safety, freedom, and dignity.

In conclusion, Hadid urged her audience to participate in the campaign with any available amount, outlining the cost of basic needs: $25 is sufficient to secure a blanket, $30 to buy a mat, and $75 to cover the cost of waterproofing a tent. The total cost for a single tent is $250.

She stressed that sharing the post and raising awareness about the campaign is no less important than financial donations in making a real difference in the lives of affected families.
