Help Mhmd&Mila survive famine and war in Gaza
Donation protected
Hello, I am Nada from Gaza, a mother of two children, Mila and Muhammad. I created this account with a bank account for my sister (Hanin), who lives in Canada. Before the war, we lived in stability and boundless happiness, the life was complete and integrated with us.
Mila, who was 4 years old, had started going to kindergarten.
She was very happy. Muhammad had just turned a year old. We had celebrated his birthday a few days before the war.
Everything was beautiful. My husband worked as an accountant in a food store, and I worked as a medical optometrist, and we were saving money to buy furniture and belongings for the house until it was complete. On one of the worst days of life, we woke up to the sound of bombing , the sound of which was terrifying, as if the world had turned upside down or the apocalypse had occurred. We were terrified by what was happening, and hours later a declaration of war was made. The bombing has become crazy everywhere, as if it were an action movie that we don't want to live in. From that time until now, we no longer understand what is happening. Is this a dream or a bad nightmare? On October 13, the occupation announced that we must go to places they claimed were safe. Without thinking, I took my children and ran to the south of the Gaza Strip without clothes, money, or anything. We left everything in the hope of returning within a few days, but the period lasted 233 days, and we still have hope of returning. . And now we were surprised that the area in which we lived was completely bombed. There was no longer a home or life. During this period, we were displaced approximately 7 times, and in the end we settled in a small tent that was not suitable for living. There were no minimum requirements for life. There was no potable water, which we carried for long distances. It took us a long time to reach the tent in which we lived and eat canned food because there was no gas for cooking. When we needed to cook a little food, we would search for paper and wood in the street to burn them and light a fire to cook food or boil water to make milk for our children. This gave my husband a fourth-degree stomach bug. He could no longer eat canned food, and the lack of daipers was another problem entirely, as my child began to suffer from skin infections because the price of Pampers had risen to the point where I can't buy it , as I used cloth and nylon instead.
Months ago, we were happy that the State
of Canada opened the way for its citizens to receive their family in Gaza. We were so happy that we wished to fly. Will we really survive this hideous war? Will my children survive?! We waited impatiently for our acceptance of the project, and actually, after a few days, we received acceptance, thank allah . Here the big obstacle was that we must leave Gaza by ourselves and arrived to canada , and that each individual must pay a large sum that we cannot afford. So we created the Go Fund Me platform in the hope of raising money to get out of Gaza. So I hope you can help me. $1 makes a big difference to us. We calculated the cost of exiting Gaza. Nada (mother): 5000 USD$ = 6381 CAD$. Ismail (father): 5000 USD$ = 6381 CAD$. Mile: 2500 USD$ = 3415 CAD$ Muhammad: 2500 USD$. = 3415CAD$ and the cost of flight tickets to Canada for everyone is 2500USD$ = 3415CAD$. We want your help. My children can no longer bear the horror and panic they are experiencing. I hope we all emerge alive. Your unwavering support and continued concern for our families means the world to us. We still hope for a quick resolution and eagerly anticipate the day when we can share better news with you. Thank you
