Ahmad in Gaza - Fund for Essentials and Emergencies

For over a year, Ahmad Baloni and his family have been without a home, displaced over 9 times throughout the Gaza Strip. They have been unable to work and earn money to support their family.

Ahmad is a 22 year old who was studying his last year of English translation at University and volunteering with the PRCS. His immediate family includes:

his mother and father

his older brother Mohamed, a PRCS worker

his 5 year old sister, Loajin

With the borders currently closed and prices for everything from soap to shoes skyrocketing, they need to set up this emergency fund to cover their daily living expenses.

Not only does the family make sure they can provide food and water for themselves, but Loajin is 5 yrs old and growing. She will need clothes and shoes as she out grows her current ones. Children’s clothing has become especially expensive in the markets.

Ahmad has been documenting his life throughout this year on his tiktok @ahmadbaloni0

You can check his videos there for more on what the situation of their daily life is from his trips to the market, where he shows the astounding cost of everyday items like toilet paper, to showing how him and his family make their meals.

About the organizer: my name is Kari. I have become close friends of the family over the better part of this year and am organizing this campaign on their behalf to make sure they have all the resources they need to survive.
