Help Alaa D Alnajarr’s Family Survive Genocide

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Jacob Martinez from Colorado, USA, and since October, I have been watching the situation in Gaza worsen with the rest of the world. I have a child and seeing a population that is over 40% minors being indiscriminately killed caused great anxiety and grief in me. I wanted to help as best I can to ease the suffering of the children of Gaza.

 Allow me to introduce you to a 29-year old man named Alaa D Alnajjar who’s family is currently experiencing major suffering, in his own words:

“I ask the whole world to protect us from this genocide. It has no mercy on infants, it has no mercy on the elderly, it has no mercy on women and it has no mercy on young people. Please protect us, stand by us. We do not get food here. Everything has become bad. A dark world and an unknown road. We do not know where we will go. We are sleeping on the sidewalks. The streets are exposed to bombing, death, and cold, to all kinds of death. I ask you to stand with us.

I have a family, it is me, my wife Bushra Mahmoud Abu Rida , and our 5 year old son, Sari Alaa Al-Najjar. I want to provide for them. But what do I say when I don’t have income because the Israelis have strangled the life out of Gaza?”

Alaaa and his family members were forcibly displaced from Khan Younes to Rafah. They had no money whatsoever to pay for anything, not even a tent. Because of the continuous bombing and Alaa's inability to afford a proper shelter, they moved to an area in the Center called Mirage. Ala is married and has a five-year-old son. He is also accompanied by his father, mother, sister, and brother. The most heartwarming part? Mind you, this detail is what makes Palestinians so special and precious for all the lessons they've been teaching the world! Despite having nothing material to offer, Alaa adopted another child whose whole family was martyred. His name is Fayek. Alaa merely needs his caring and soft heart, and I'm pretty sure he'd be treating this orphan exactly as his own!

Alaa's mom struggles with diabetes. His sister has cancer and didn't get her treatment from the beginning of the genocide. As you may guess, her health condition is worsening from day to day, and she needs to be urgently evacuated. Alaa and his family haven't eaten anything in long days. All they could get were some fluids. Moreover, they only have access to salty water.

Please, help us give Alaa’s family a chance to be able to survive this genocide and collective punishment. Contribute to this campaign and share it with everyone who is able to help. Let’s not fail the innocents of Gaza.
