Support Me And My Family In Gaza
Donation protected
My name is Imad Ayoub, a business man, our trading company was called the “Ayoub Brothers”.
Me and my wife have a family of 4 children the ages of 6 months, 6, 8, and 10 years old. We have been displaced from the North to the South. We lost everything our home, our money, and our sense of safety.
Thankfully my family and I have survived death many times. My baby boy was born right before the war all started; with all the conflict happening he wasn’t able to get his routine checkups nor his vacations needed for a new born. The lack of finding baby needs like dippers, formula, baby clothes and everyday necessities makes things very difficult on us. Its all to hard with no food no work and with a baby needing to be constantly fed. Recently we all got colds including the new born because of being on the coast.
We were forced to evacuate our home which is now destroyed. We stayed at the Al Shiffa hospital but we were forced to leave the hospital shortly after. We walked on foot for hours towards the southern region of Gaza my innocent children seeing and and hearing everything around them. We all stayed together at a shelter in the Khanunis industry area for a few weeks having very little food and water sources as tanks surrounded us. Again shortly after we were forced to leave the shelter but we had nowhere to go. We now sleep in a tent on the coast of Rafah. Becoming an open target for bombs and missals. What gives me the sadness and depression is having to see my kids terrified to sleep at night or leave my side scared something may happen. We all have the mindset that it’ll all be over soon but it’s been about 6 months now and theirs no signs of them stopping.
We ask for your help for us to evacuate to safety and give us a chance to rebuild ourselves and create something for our kids to call home and to be able to provide them with food, water, medical care, clothing, and humanitarian needs.
Every donation, regardless of size, will make a significant difference in helping us to find shelter, apply for visas, and our everyday needs. Please consider sharing our GoFundMe widely with your family and friends to help us reach our goal as swiftly as possible.
