🚚 (PHOTOS) Our first Ramadan truck full of food just entered Gaza and this one feels like a miracle!
Families asked for these exact boxes so they can cook for themselves. We have more trucks on the way.







As-Salaam-Alaikum my sisters and brothers,
I want you to see what your mercy and giving looks like.
Our first truck this Ramadan—full of supplies from Human Concern—just made it into Gaza. We have more on the way. And I’m sharing photos in this email because I need you to understand something:
Each truck that gets in feels like a miracle. It shouldn’t be this hard to get food to starving families. But it is.
And the only way we keep the trucks coming is if we keep the giving coming.

Let me tell you what makes these supplies so powerful.
These food boxes were directly requested by the families we serve. That matters. Because while families absolutely love receiving cooked meals at Iftar—and we’re still doing that—these boxes are a dignified way of letting families take care of themselves.
They can cook the meals they actually want.
They can feed their children in the way that feels familiar.
They can make choices.
And yes—this is real life in Gaza right now—sometimes a family may trade something in the box for another item they need. In a place where markets are broken and everything is scarce, a food box can become a form of currency. It can be exchanged for medicine, diapers, fuel—whatever keeps a family afloat.
That is why these boxes matter. They don’t just fill stomachs. They restore agency.
Family, I need you to feel the weight of that: agency is a form of dignity. And dignity is what genocide tries to steal first.

Here’s what I want to keep crystal clear all month:
This fundraiser is tax-deductible.
It is Zakat-eligible / Zakat-verified.
And I do not receive a percentage or a single penny from this fundraiser—I take $0.
I’m going to keep pressing—because Gaza has been forced to endure devastation for over two years, and the need doesn’t pause for weekends or news cycles.
If you’re wondering whether your giving actually moves… look at the photos.
That’s movement.
That’s food.
That’s help that arrives before Iftar.
Now I’m asking you to help me send the next trucks—and to keep the nightly meals going too.
If you can give $10, give it.
If you can give $25, give it.
If you can give $50 or $100, this is a powerful moment.
If you can give $250 or $1,000, you can help us purchase and move large quantities quickly.

And if you’ve already donated—thank you. I’m asking you to do one more thing that multiplies everything:
Please forward this email or text the link to 3 people and ask them to help us keep the trucks coming.
Here’s a copy/paste text you can send:
A truck of Human Concern supplies just entered Gaza for Ramadan—these food boxes were requested by families so they can cook for themselves with dignity. It’s Zakat-eligible + tax-deductible and Shaun takes $0. Please donate so more trucks can go: https://www.launchgood.com/v4/campaign/support_the_people_of_gaza_this_ramadan_w_shaun_king
Family, every truck that gets in is a victory over starvation.
And I need you to hear me: we have more on the way—but we have to fund what comes next.
Please help right now: support the people of Gaza this Ramadan
Love and appreciate each of you.
Your friend and brother,
Shaun
