Save the Children on World's Bread Day Oct. 16th

Breaking Bread Again – A Fundraiser for the Children of the Middle East (Gaza)

On World Bread Day, October 16th, people around the world celebrate the simple, powerful act of sharing bread. This year, we invite you to turn that tradition into hope for children in Gaza.

Why This Matters

For children in Gaza, bread isn’t just food—it’s survival. Families are facing severe shortages of water, food, and medical care. The youngest are often the most vulnerable. Together, we can help ensure they don’t go without life’s most basic needs.

My Story

During COVID, I learned how to bake sourdough. That experience deepened my appreciation for bread—not just as food, but as a symbol of care, patience, and community. That’s why I chose “bread” as the heart of this fundraiser: to help children in Gaza and beyond where help is urgently needed.

Pita, especially, is meaningful. It’s a bread shared by both Palestinians and Israelis. For me, it carries a vision—that one day, these two cultures will sit down and break bread again, in peace.
