Overview

• Topshelf Records will match every donation up to $1,000 each month through December 2025 to support the diaspora-led Sameer Project.
• The Sameer Project focuses on distributing food, water and tents to displaced families in South Gaza under blockade.
• The label framed Gaza’s humanitarian crisis as a man-made genocide and cited UN-backed IPC alerts on worst-case famine conditions.
• Médecins Sans Frontières data shows that over 20,000 children were treated for acute malnutrition between April and mid-July, with rates tripling in late July.
• Industry response has grown, with pay-what-you-can donations on Topshelf’s site and artists like Brian Eno planning benefit concerts for Gaza relief.
