Italian Eugenia Granito, 75, decided to offer her family's historic 17th-century mansion for sale and donate all of its proceeds to Doctors Without Borders to help provide medical care for children in the Gaza Strip.

Located in the southern Italian town of Rocca Chilento, the palace has a small church dating back to 1751, and a garden that retains trees planted by family members for decades.

Granito said her decision came after she was impressed by seeing Palestinian children wounded by Israel's war on Gaza, stressing that all the proceeds from the sale would be used to help them.

The financial value of the palace, which is still for sale and under assessment, has not yet been determined, according to Italian media.
