Behind every humanitarian response is a human story. A story of resilience, recovery, and hope. ❤️🩹
This video shares the experience of a woman from Gaza living with cancer who received rehabilitation and psychosocial support through the Augusta Victoria Hospital (AVH) owned by the The Lutheran World Federation Jerusalem Program (LWF), during the war in Gaza as part of the ACT Palestine Forum (APF) PSE231 Appeal.
When the conflict began, many patients from Gaza who were receiving medical treatment in East Jerusalem found themselves unable to return home. Separated from their families and communities, they faced not only the challenges of illness but also the uncertainty of prolonged displacement.
Through rehabilitation services, psychosocial support, and continued medical care, AVH/LWF have accompanied patients during a particularly difficult period, helping them regain strength, dignity, and confidence for the future.
This reflects the commitment of APF members to stand alongside people affected by crisis, providing support and care before, during, and after emergencies.
Her journey is a reminder that humanitarian action is about more than meeting immediate needs. It is also about supporting people's well-being, preserving dignity, and helping them rebuild their lives.
Because hope, care, and human connection remain essential, even in the most challenging circumstances.
