The non-profit organization Bridge of Hope was founded this spring following the informal humanitarian work of nurse Kristín S. Bjarnadóttir, who has been in contact with numerous young, war-affected families  in Gaza for over a year.

Purpose of Bridge of Hope

The purpose of the organization is, among other things, to support war-affected families in Gaza so they can purchase food, hygiene products, medical services, clothing, or shelter. Funds may also be used to pay for rent, school fees, or travel costs.

How does aid reach the families?

Support is sent directly to the families via verified donation accounts or bank transfers. This method has been in place for over a year and has enabled families, who would otherwise have received no help, to get assistance, since the support of international aid organizations is denied.

Support is based on first verifying the family’s location in Gaza through video calls. Friendships and connections are then nurtured through social media and video conversations, as circumstances allow.
