URGENT! Help a Palestinian family suffering in Gaza!

Donation protected


This Gazan family along with their elderly grandmother (who suffers from breast cancer) is in need of URGENT help!

Hi! My name is Mia. I am speaking fro my heart to all of humanity. I created this to help my dear friend, Samah, and her family who all have been suffering in Gaza for 8 months now.

Read the whole story below:

My friend lost everything - her home, with all its contents, her university and her work place. Her childhood neighborhood is completely destroyed. She has been on the move constantly with her 9-member family, running from the bombing to seek shelter. Sadly, there is nowhere safe to go in Gaza.

They have been displaced more than 10 times now.

To make matters worse, her grandmother is sick with cancer and she needs to travel abroad to get her treatment urgently. She requires medication and possibly even surgery. She has a travel permit from the hospital official in Gaza, which I have attached below, though, she is still stuck in the south. She can’t get her treatment, medicine or any operation in Gaza due to the destruction of the hospitals there. Help her grandmother to get the necessary treatments to survive. And help this family to have a life again!


Her grandmother:




Their demolished home:


Her childhood neighborhood BEFORE & AFTER:



She and her family were staying with her uncle; till Israel claimed that south is a safe zone so they were separated. Her uncle is now staying in the south, taking care of his cancerous mother. He is a father of 3 children, and he was working as a driver but due this war, he lost his car which was his only way of income, his home and everything. Now, he even doesn’t have any work to get an income from.



and this is his demolished car!


Please help them reunite again. Please help her family reunite again with her grandmother and her uncle’s family. You can follow them on Instagram: @dimaza122_

My friend lost her dream to obtain a masters degree. Due to the bombings and shellings, all the schools and the universities in Gaza have been demolished. Her 6 siblings are university and school students but they can’t continue their learning journey now. Help them dream again. Help her only brother, Ahmed, a distinguished high school student, reach his dream of becoming a doctor. He was in his last year of the high school and about to enter the university. Now, he doesn’t know what his future will be.

Her university which has been completely destroyed:

Her sibling’s school:

She and her family are suffering from the severe shortage of food and clean water. No electricity and no internet connection exists. In order to contact me, Samah will often risk her life to find a weak connection on top of a building or elsewhere.

This is how they have to cook now:

Making bread:

They are planning to evacuate to Egypt, which currently costs $5000 percent per adult and $2,500 per child. If the situation happens to improve, they will consider staying and using the funds to rebuild their home. If there are any funds leftover, it will be used to help them continue their learning journey, and to help her uncle to have some money to purchase food and clean water.

Something has drawn me to them and I know in a small, but very direct way, we are ALL able to help these innocent people rebuild their lives. Contribute what you can - It all adds up. Anything can help. I always tell my kids, kindness comes back to you and I hope you are seen with the same kindness you show today with your donation.

Thank you!
