Help a Family Afford Formula, Food, and Essentials

Hi, my name is Olivia, I’m in the US, and I am raising funds for Mariam Ahmad, a Palestinian mother of 5 children— including a brand new baby— in besieged Gaza who needs help to afford food, formula, clean water, and other essentials that are priced exorbitantly high.

Mariam will be in authority of all funds and decisions surrounding this fundraiser. All funds will be transferred from Olivia’s US bank account directly to Mariam’s sister’s PayPal account.

Their fundraising goal of $15,500 reflects the following ways the funds will be needed and spent:

-food, infant care essentials, clean water

-clothing and shelter

-gofundme platform fee factored in

Here are Mariam’s own words:

”Currently, we are staying in a makeshift tent, where even the most basic necessities, such as food and clean water, remain out of our reach due to exorbitant prices. The burden is heavy on our shoulders as we struggle to provide for our family's basic needs.

With a newborn in my arms, the gravity of our situation is heightened, as I yearn to provide him with the nourishment and care he deserves. But our circumstances are difficult and our hopes diminish with each passing day.

I have lost my home and everything with it and I am starting this campaign to provide for my family and rebuild my home one day soon

It is with a heavy heart that I appeal to those who have the means to extend a helping hand to us in our time of need. Your generosity, no matter how small, has the power to make a profound difference in our lives, offering a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness that surrounds us.

The objective of this campaign is to raise money to feed, cloth and provide care for my 5 kids and rebuild my home one day soon.

Please, find it in your hearts to stand with us, to show mercy and compassion to a family in need. Together, we can alleviate suffering and provide a glimmer of hope for a brighter tomorrow.

Kind Regards

Mariam”
