Franklin Graham Announces 13th Samaritan’s Purse Relief Flight for Gaza
Departing from Greensboro, North Carolina, at 9:00 a.m. ET tomorrow morning
BOONE, N.C., Oct. 24, 2025—Samaritan’s Purse is sending a major airlift of food and relief supplies to families in Gaza who continue to suffer two years after the start of the war. Franklin Graham, president and CEO of the international Christian relief organization, will be on site to pray with the aviation team before the aircraft departs.
En este vuelo, Samaritan's Purse ha enviado más de 290 000 paquetes de suplementos alimenticios ricos en vitaminas a base de cacahuete para mujeres y niños, además de 12 000 mantas, 12 000 lámparas solares y otros artículos de primera necesidad. Los especialistas en respuesta a desastres de la organización ya se encuentran en Medio Oriente y trabajan para brindar ayuda y esperanza a las familias de Gaza.
“Hamas not only held 251 innocent people hostage from Israel, but they also held the entire population of Gaza hostage for more than 15 years,” dijo Franklin Graham, el presidente de Samaritan's Purse. “They executed anyone who spoke out against them, as we witnessed on the streets of Gaza last week. We pray this flight will bring relief to people who are suffering.”
Samaritan’s Purse began working in Israel and Gaza immediately after the conflict began two years ago. The organization has delivered more than 223 tons of supplemental food and distributed over one million food rations. Its medical teams have also treated more than 1,700 patients.
Además de estas labores de ayuda en Gaza, Samaritan's Purse continúa auxiliando a las comunidades de Israel que aún se recuperan del trauma y la devastación de la guerra. La organización ha proporcionado 42 ambulancias, 28 de ellas blindadas, a Magen David Adom, el proveedor de servicios de emergencia de Israel. Samaritan's Purse también ha participado en 11 importantes proyectos de construcción en Israel, incluyendo dos estaciones de respuesta para ambulancias, nueve centros comunitarios con refugios antibombas y un centro de equinoterapia para jóvenes.
Based in Boone, North Carolina, Samaritan's Purse responds to the physical and spiritual needs of individuals in crisis situations—especially in locations where few others are working. Led by President and CEO Franklin Graham, Samaritan's Purse works in more than 100 countries to provide aid to victims of war, disease, poverty, famine, and persecution.
