Famous supermodels Bella and Gigi Hadid, staunch supporters of Palestine, have pledged a generous donation of $1 million towards Palestinian relief efforts.
According to a spokesperson for Bella, the funds are designated for equitable distribution among four prominent humanitarian organizations focusing on aiding children and families affected by the crisis: Heal Palestine, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF), World Central Kitchen (WCK), and United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA).
Born to Palestinian property magnate Mohamed Anwar Hadid, the sisters have consistently used their platform to advocate for the Palestinian cause. Bella, aged 27, acclaimed as the Model of the Year by the British Fashion Council in 2022, and gracing 29 international Vogue covers, voiced her distress over the plight of Palestinians on social media. She lamented the loss endured by the Palestinian people and criticized the global government systems for their perceived lack of empathy.

Recently, at the Cannes Film Festival, Bella adorned herself in a striking red and white dress crafted from keffiyeh, a traditional Arabic fabric symbolizing solidarity with Palestine. Through her Instagram post, she conveyed that it was a poignant tribute to the rich history, resilience, and artistry of Palestinian embroidery—a poignant display of support for a cause close to her heart.
More than 36,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the start, according to the Gaza health ministry.
