Evacuate Kareem & Carmen NOW from Gaza

Donation protected


Together we can help save Kareem & Carmen.

I am Yousef Hussein, from Gaza and residing in America. Me and my family have been in America for two years. Kareem and Carmen, the twins of my sister, are in desperate need to evacuate from Gaza. Their mother was killed with her family of 8 people after their house was directly bombed. Since the beginning of the war on Gaza, I have provided all the financial assistance I can to them and the remaining family trapped there.




The children, Kareem & Carmen, have been displaced with my father, mother, and my sisters in southern Gaza. They all now shelter in tents for those displaced in the siege. In light of the winter weather and the bitter cold, and ongoing bombardment, we fear for them every minute of every day.

The twins are in dire need of getting out of Gaza, especially after the deterioration of their psychological & health conditions, and especially after the loss of their parents. The cost of getting out of Gaza via the Rafah land crossing into Egypt is very expensive and ranges from 5-7 thousand dollars per person. There are a total of six family members, including the twins, trying to evacuate at this time. I ask you to help me in this ordeal because I am unable to cover this amount.

Our family is so grateful for any donations that you can make, and if you cannot donate at this time, please share their story and our fundraiser. We can only hope that the more people who see these precious children and their pain will help us get them to safety, with their grandparents and aunts. We worry about the health of the elders as they have had no access to healthcare and crucial medicines for months.

Please share and pray for our family. The updates we receive from the family and friends who have survived so far do not get better, only worse. We will try to update the status of their evacuation daily, but please understand it may not be possible as their communication and access to power are very limited.

Thank you all for reading this entire story. We need you and thank you so much.

Pray for peace and ceasefire.
