Help Mohammad's family evacuate from Gaza
Donation protected
My name is Mohammad. I am 23 years old and live in Gaza, Palestine, with my family of seven members. I was about to graduate as a successful engineer when my life took a drastic turn on October 7. Our family home was heavily damaged, and the university was damaged by bombings. Our lives have been turned upside down.
Now, we have lost our dreams and are uncertain about our future. My dream was to graduate from university with a very good GPA, and I was very close to achieving that, with less than a semester left at Al-Azhar University. My brother Hassan was preparing for the final year of his secondary school, and my brother Mahmoud is in the third level at Al-Azhar University, specializing in psychological counselling. My siblings and I have lost a year of our lives, like all the children of Gaza who should have had the right to education.
We have stopped thinking about our education; our thoughts are filled with worries about whether we will survive and what we will eat tomorrow. My father is unable to work now to provide us with a normal life, which everyone should have the right to.
Our lives now lack water, electricity, food, or communications to know what is happening. We are raising money so that we can leave this dangerous situation and go to a safe place where we can get food and water. Even after the aggression stops, we will not be able to return to our normal lives, as even the universities did not escape the bombing. We want our right to learn and live a peaceful life without fear of constant attacks.
We face extreme fear, hunger, and death. Any amount helps us so we can leave for a safer place. The money will be used to pay an agency in Egypt that is evacuating people from Gaza. They charge 5,000 per person. We will use the remaining funds for housing and necessities while we settle down.
The money will be used for us to evacuate via Egypt.
6x adult fees: 5,000 x 6 = 30,000
1x child fee: 3,000 x 1 = 3,000
Plus accommodation while settling in and resuming our education.
My family:
Father / Saeed, 55 years old
Mother / Manal, 46 years old
Me / Mohammad, 23 years old
My sister/ Nour, 24 years old
My brothers/ Mahmoud, 21 years old; Hassan, 19 years old; Omar, 14 years old.
