Emergency Gaza Evacuation Supporting Ahmed family

Donation protected
Dear Compassionate Souls,

I come to you with an urgent plea for assistance for my family in Gaza. My name is Arwa Ahmed, and I am a resident of Michigan. The recent loss of my sister, her husband, and their entire family—80 people in total—has left behind three orphaned children: Salma (8 years old), Seba (10 years old), and Sayal (16 years old). Compounding this heartbreaking situation is the fact that my sister has special needs, adding a layer of complexity to their already challenging circumstances.



Amidst the harrowing conflict, my elderly parents, burdened by grief, are desperately attempting to evacuate to safer grounds. Their health conditions are deteriorating rapidly, making the need for immediate evacuation paramount. Currently, they are living in makeshift tents, battling the elements without access to proper shelter, warmth, food, or medical care.

Your generous contributions to this campaign will serve as a lifeline for my family, enabling them to secure immediate evacuation, essential medical attention, and the basic necessities for survival. The funds will also alleviate the strain on my parents, who, in their advanced age, are grappling with deteriorating health. Your support will provide urgent mental health care for my nieces and nephew in Gaza, helping them heal from the deep trauma caused by the ongoing war and the loss of their family.

Our target is to raise $80,000, and every donation, regardless of size, will directly impact their journey towards safety and provide a glimmer of hope for a more secure future.

The people in urgent need of evacuation include:

• My two orphaned nieces and nephew
• My elderly parents
• My special needs sister and aunt, both visually impaired
• My brother, my sister, and her four children, all under the age of 12
• My uncle, who is wheelchair-bound and has had multiple toes amputated, his wife, and three of his children

Your kindness will not only offer practical assistance but also bring much-needed comfort during this challenging time.

I extend my deepest gratitude for your compassion and support. Together, we can make a difference and help my family navigate through this profound crisis.

Thank you for standing with us in solidarity.
