Italy: a match for Gaza!
To Gabriele Gravina, President of the Italian Football Federation:
We are football fans, sports lovers, and human beings from all over the world.
We are outraged that Israel is allowed to play in the World Cup as its government continues to kill innocent children and families in Gaza. Israel doesn’t deserve this special treatment.
You don’t decide who plays but you can decide what Italy stands for.
On September 8, when Italy plays Israel, we urge you to pledge that all ticket revenue from the match is donated to trusted humanitarian groups saving lives in Gaza.
Norway has already shown that it's possible. If Italy, one of football’s greatest nations, joins them, it could spark a chain reaction of solidarity across the world.
Together, we can turn this match into a message humanity cannot ignore. We’re counting on you!

Every day, Israel kills the equivalent of an entire classroom of children in Gaza.
Yet, FIFA still lets their national team play the Football World Cup as if nothing is happening. In just a few days, Italy will face Israel in a qualifying match.
Sign this letter now to ask the President of the Italian Federation to donate all match profits to help humanitarian organisations on the ground in Gaza. Norway just did it and if Italy joins, we could spark a wave of solidarity for Gaza across the world’s most-watched competition:
