FIRST ON FOX – The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a U.S.-supported aid organization, which has delivered over two million boxes containing nearly 125 million meals to Gaza, is introducing a trial program that allows families to reserve aid packages ahead of time.
According to the foundation, as additional aid arrives in Gaza, families will now be able to utilize the program to secure their packages in advance, “enhancing the ease, dignity, and order of the collection process.” Under the current system at distribution sites, GHF observed that younger, healthier men often have an advantage over women, children, older individuals, and those with disabilities in obtaining aid, as it’s distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.
“This is real progress,” stated GHF Executive Director John Acree. “It shows that GHF’s model is effective and reinforces our commitment to our mission of adapting to the needs of those we serve, as well as fulfilling President Trump’s call for innovation in delivering humanitarian aid to those in need in Gaza.”
The foundation noted that aid will still be available on a first-come, first-served basis for those who opt out of the program. GHF assured that all data is securely stored and never disclosed.
GHF explained that the new system also allows the foundation to communicate directly with families who participate, regarding distribution timings, special deliveries, and urgent notifications, “enabling the organization to promptly respond to community requirements.”
Since its launch on May 27, GHF has collaborated with local Palestinian aid workers and non-governmental organizations to deliver nearly 125 million meals to the people in Gaza.
Last month, during a visit to Scotland, President Donald Trump addressed the ongoing hunger crisis in Gaza and the urgency of getting food into the enclave immediately, while doing it safely and securely.

“The United States recently, just a couple of weeks ago, we gave $60 million.… No other nation gave money,” Trump said at the time, as he urged other nations “to step up.”
At least $30 million in U.S. contributions to Gaza have been channeled through the U.S.- and Israeli-backed GHF.
In July, GHF spokesperson Chapin Fay told Fox News Digital that the foundation “has one exclusive mission: to feed the people of Gaza in a way that prevents Hamas from being able to steal or loot or divert the aid.”
In addition to having “zero diversion,” Fay said GHF has “put [aid] directly into the hands of the people who need it the most.”
