About Children Of Gaza
A dedicated campaign powered by athletes to keep public attention on the children affected by conflict.
Giving Athletes a Platform
Sport gives athletes an extraordinary public platform. Millions of people watch them compete, follow their careers and pay attention to what they say.
Children of Gaza provides an independent space outside commercial pressures. We create opportunities for athletes to speak directly to audiences, at greater length and in their own words—unfiltered and uncensored. What matters is that the platform they have built through sport can be used to keep attention on the children of Gaza.
Why Children?
Children do not choose war. They do not control governments, armies, or borders, yet their futures are affected by decisions over which they have no control.
When Gaza is discussed only through statistics, individual lives can disappear. Behind every number is a person. Children have names, families, and friends. They play football, they have things they love doing, and ideas about what they want their lives to become. We use the reach of sport to keep those lives in public view.
What We Do
Athlete Voices
We work with professional athletes who want to speak about Gaza, providing opportunities for them to do so in their own words. We do not manufacture statements; we ensure audiences hear what the athlete actually thinks.
Live Events
Bringing athletes and audiences into the same space. From professional football matches to live discussions where athletes can talk about their experiences and Gaza.
Fundraising & Partners
Children of Gaza is a campaign, not a registered charity. When an event raises funds, we partner with established charities like Children Not Numbers with the appropriate expertise and infrastructure to deliver humanitarian aid.
