Help Khader and his family evacuate from Gaza

Hello, I'm Khader Volidis from Gaza.

For the past 10 months my family (of six) and I have been suffering from the ongoing war on Gaza. We lost everything. Our home that embraced our memories of laughter, joy sadness, comfort and everything in between. Destroyed. Our neighborhood that echoed the sounds of our neighbors laughs, arguments and conversations. Destroyed. My kids' school and any means of education that encouraged them to fulfill their dreams and be someone in this world. Destroyed. My job. Destroyed.

Picture of what we used to call home.

We don't know what home means anymore. We have no where to call home anymore. From contanslty being forced to evacuate into different "homes" that were supposed to be a "safe place" and refuge. We've moved 9 different times. We used to rent a room in apartments but its useless since we're forced to move all the time. And the rent being ridiculously expensive. Now my family and I stay in a tent that's supposed to be our living room, kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom all at the same time.

I don't want this life for my kids. No one does. These kids have dreams and aspirations and no matter how silly and small they may seem, they are dreams which every kid has and deserves to have the chance to fulfill them.

My youngest daughter got injured by a bullet in her leg. Now she never wants to step a foot outside in fear of getting injured again.

A drop of water or a slice of bread is gold. There's no food. If my family and I were to survive the constant bombing we won't survive the hunger and famine. I've lost 20KGs since the begging of this war. A dad whose supposed to be the backbone of his family I can't even hold myself together.

The evacuation fees to Egypt have increased ridiculously ranging from $8000- $15,0000 PER PERSON. And this is just to evacuate from Gaza, ignoring the living expenses that will be needed. The money will be be used to help us evacute to Eygpt temporarily until we find somewhere suitable to relocate in. I hate to have to ask for your help but you're our only hope. Every dollar counts.

I'm reaching out to you as a human, who deserves to be human not living in these inhuman conditions.

Just like you deserve to live and be human so does my family and I.
