Help Hamza Rebuild: A Journey Toward Stability and a Sustain
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Hamza, and I’m reaching out today because, after years of hard work and resilience, I’ve reached a point where I need help to keep moving forward.
My Journey So Far:
Growing up in Jordan as a child of Palestinian refugees, I always dreamed of a meaningful life. I studied mechanical engineering, built a solid career, and had what many would call a “good job.” But I felt trapped—limited by cultural expectations and unable to be my true self. I wanted more than a paycheck; I wanted personal and professional fulfillment.
Looking outward, I set my sights on Germany—representing freedom, opportunity, and a chance to explore my full potential. Balancing demanding work with intensive German courses was exhausting, but in 2022, I got the opportunity to visit Germany for a two-month career exchange with the Goethe-Institut. For the first time, I felt a true sense of belonging, solidifying my determination to make Germany my home.
Finding and Losing My Dream Job:
In 2024, after countless applications and sleepless nights, I landed my dream job as a project manager at a top automotive company in Germany. It felt like a breakthrough—a reward for years of hard work. I was growing, learning, and seeing my dreams come to life.
Then, unexpectedly, the company faced financial struggles, and I was let go. As a new hire on probation, I was among the first to go. It was devastating, but I also felt a strange relief. Leaving meant I wasn’t working for someone whose values didn’t align with mine, and I resolved to keep moving forward.
But it’s been harder this time. Without a steady job, I’ve had to leave my apartment and rely on friends for temporary housing. Every step feels like a struggle, but I’m still holding onto hope. My mental health has suffered, and I’ve had to stop therapy because I can’t afford it right now, but I continue fighting for my dream.
What I Need to Move Forward:
I need help to cover immediate expenses, including:
- €3000 in health insurance and other debts.
- Funds to extend my visa and switch it to a freelance work permit.
- Living costs and essential medication.
What Your Support Would Mean:
I’m not asking for a handout—I’m asking for a chance to get back on my feet. With your support, I can make the most of this opportunity—not just for me, but for the people I care about and the communities I want to serve.
I’m passionate about renewable energy and pursuing a master’s degree scholarship in this field to contribute to a sustainable future. With stability, I know I can give back to my family, help my community, and support others striving to make a positive impact.
The Future I’m Working Toward
If I can rebuild my life in Germany, I want to be a leader in sustainable technology, addressing environmental challenges and creating positive change in Germany, Jordan, and beyond. I want to repay my mother, who’s been my biggest support, and reach a point where I can help others who, like me, just need a chance to thrive.
If you find my story meaningful, I would be deeply grateful for any support you can offer—whether through a donation or simply by sharing my story. This is my chance to create a stable, impactful future, and with your help, I believe I can make it happen.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you feel moved to provide.
