Support my family to survive death
Donation protected
I am Ibraheem Abdalaziz, 27 years old, a pharmacist from Gaza. On October 7, Israel bombed my family, completely destroying our home. We narrowly escaped death, but the bombing and destruction left my four brothers - Bashar, Awad, Abdel Karim, my little sister Saja, and my pregnant wife Aya - in unbearable fear and terror, and I managed to pull them out from under the rubble with difficulty.
Our life has become hell, fire and phosphorus everywhere. I have developed a severe allergy to smoke, and I have started to suffer from shortness of breath. Every day that passes my condition gets worse, and I have not been able to find a cure yet.
We have been afflicted with many diseases such as hepatitis, ulcers, Skin diseases and stomach infections. I am afraid for my daughter Malak, who suffers from malnutrition and whose condition is getting worse every day. I desperately need your help to keep my family alive.
Our livelihoods have been cut off, my father’s company has been destroyed, and our goods and cars have been burned. We have nothing left. I feel like life has been taken away from us, and my hopes have been shattered before our eyes.
At first, our family business was thriving. We employed community members and used our resources to support those in need. We had enough money to sustain ourselves even as the war began, and we saw others sharing their tragic stories of destroyed homes and lost livelihoods, and receiving assistance to leave Gaza.
Despite this, my father insisted that we stay. He believed in resilience and the importance of holding on to our home, so we continued to spend out of our own pockets, and help others, even as we faced our own challenges. We stayed in northern Gaza, rooted to our land, hoping that we could get through this without having to ask for help.
But after more than a year, the situation became dangerous. The war drew closer, resources dwindled, and safety felt more distant than ever. With each passing day, our hope faced new challenges and increased risks. After all this hardship and loss, I finally turned to GoFundMe, hoping that the world could help us through this difficult time.
I know I'm late in reaching out, but our determination to stay and hold out as long as possible was the reason I took so long. Now, I can only hope that our story touches the hearts of those who want to stand with us..
I need your support to make this dream come true. I want to regain hope and I want to get my family out of Gaza and rebuild my life .
This is the story of my wife Aya and my daughter Malak.
“My name is Aya, I am 23 years old, and I am from Gaza. I am a wife and mother to my seven-month-old daughter Malak, and a loving daughter to my mother who was diagnosed with thyroid cancer just before the war. She is now battling cancer and urgently needs treatment abroad.
Malak was born during the war, in unspeakable conditions in the hospital. We had no choice but to move straight into a tent, where we now live in unbearable misery.
Every day is a battle for survival - no food, no medicine, no clean water. We live in constant fear, surrounded by loss and the overwhelming grief of displacement. Our home was destroyed, and we have been displaced nine times. Three of them were under siege by the occupation army with tanks and military vehicles.
My malnourished, immune-compromised baby girl desperately needs basic necessities like milk, medicine, diapers and clean water - all of which are not easily found. We are stuck in a relentless cycle of destruction, trying to survive amidst constant bombing and disease.
I humbly beg To help. Your support could mean the difference between life and death for my family. I can't bear the thought of losing a loved one. Please share our story with your family and friends. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to hope. Your donations will be used to treat my mother and send my family out of Gaza to survive this war."
Donations will be received in my friend Amir's account in America and he will send the money to us in Gaza.
