Due to widespread displacement and overcrowding in Gaza, families are crammed into limited shelter, with some forced to live on the streets or in makeshift camps. YVS has been at the forefront, addressing critical needs in  by distributing 600 water tanks across displacement camps and streets throughout Gaza, providing essential access to clean drinking water.

One of these camps, now dubbed the ‘Beach Refugee Camp’, houses thousands in tents far beyond its intended capacity. Here, YVS took proactive steps by digging a well. This well, powered by solar due to lack of electricity, now produces approximately 250,000 litres of clean water daily, sustaining vital hydration for those in the camp.

In Gaza City most of the pipes that would deliver water have now been damaged or destroyed, coupled with a severe lack of electricity and fuel to pump water, this means that no water is being delivered ed to houses, camps, or shelters. YVS has mobilised water trucks to ensure continuous distribution of water to communities in need. The water, though not nearly enough for people, can be used for both drinking and cleaning.
