FIRST ON FOX – Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a U.S.-backed aid group that has delivered more than two million boxes containing nearly 125 million meals to Gaza, is unveiling a pilot program enabling families to reserve aid parcels in advance. 

The foundation said that as more aid flows into Gaza, families will now be about to use the program to secure their parcels in advance, “bringing more ease, dignity, and order to the collection process.” Under the current set-up at distribution sites, the GHF noted that younger, more fit men often outpace women, children, older men and people with disabilities to access aid, which is collected on a first-come, first-served basis.

“This is real progress,” GHF Executive Director John Acree said in a statement. “It both demonstrates that GHF’s model is working and reflects our commitment to adapting to the needs of those we serve and delivering on President Trump’s call for innovation to get more humanitarian aid into the hands of the people who need it most in Gaza.”

Aid will continue to be available on a first-come, first-served basis to those who choose not to participate, according to the foundation. GHF said all data is securely stored and never shared.

GHF said the new system also enables the foundation to communicate directly with participating households about distribution times, special deliveries and urgent updates, “allowing the organization to adapt quickly to community needs.”

Since the GHF began its operations on May 27, the organization has partnered with local Palestinian aid workers and non-governmental organizations to deliver nearly 125 million meals to Gazans. 

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.”
