The Artificial Limbs and Polio Center is one of the most essential facilities under the management of Gaza Municipality, responsible for its administration and providing essential resources, equipment, and supplies to enable the center to serve citizens for nearly 50 years. Established in 1976, this is the only facility currently operating in Gaza City, offering prosthetic services to the injured. It also provides therapeutic and medical care for children with disabilities, the elderly, stroke patients, and physical therapy services. Over the years, the center has equipped tens of thousands of patients with assistive medical devices and has extended psychological support services to war victims.
We are launching a fundraising campaign for the Gaza Municipality and its Artificial Limbs and Polio Center to help individuals with disabilities regain their independence. Every donation enhances Gaza Municipality’s services and empowers individuals to return to their daily lives with confidence and dignity. Join us in helping the injured take new steps toward life.
