Help my family escape the ongoing war in Gaza

Donation protected

Dear Potential Donors,
 My name is Mosa abu shaban with my cousin Iyad , a resident of Palestine, specifically from Gaza. Today, I come to you with a story that resonates with resilience, survival, and the indomitable human spirit amidst adversity. my family of seven my child (Abd el naser 15y ,manal 12y , mohamed 13, judee 8y ,hala 5) and my wife, and I found ourselves engulfed in the chaos of the war that erupted on October 7th. The scenes of bombing, destruction, and forced displacement became our harsh reality, compelling us to make the agonizing decision of leaving our home in search of safety. Gaza, once a place we called home, turned into an inhospitable environment, stripped of life's basic necessities. The fundamental elements of life—shelter, food, and security—were cruelly snatched away from us. In the aftermath of this turmoil, I witnessed the loss of nearly everything that defined our existence. Gaza no longer feels safe, leaving me with a profound determination to carve out a new life for my family, far away from the constant specter of war. Today, I reach out to you not merely as a survivor but as someone steadfastly committed to forging a path towards a brighter future. My aspiration is to relocate my family and myself to a place where we can rebuild, liberated from the shadows of conflict that haunt our beloved Gaza. To embark on this journey, I seek your support through a fundraising campaign with a goal of $120,000. The increased campaign goal of $120,000 will allow for a more comprehensive approach towards securing the well-being and stability of my family. I am a firm believer in transparency, and I want you to be fully aware of how every dollar will be utilized: The primary allocation of funds will be towards ensuring the safe relocation of my family outside of Gaza. This encompasses travel expenses, visa fees, transportation costs, and other associated expenditures. The increased goal will enable us to pursue safer and more reliable means of transportation and accommodation, ensuring a smoother transition for my family. A significant portion of the funds will be dedicated to covering initial living expenses in our new destination. This includes rent, utilities, groceries, and other essential items required for daily sustenance. The expanded campaign goal will provide us with the financial stability needed to settle into our new environment and focus on rebuilding our lives. Education remains a top priority for my children, and a portion of the funds will be allocated towards ensuring they have access to quality education in our new surroundings. This includes school fees, supplies, and any additional educational support they may require. The increased goal will allow us to invest more substantially in their educational needs, providing them with the opportunities to thrive academically. To address any unforeseen challenges or emergencies that may arise during our transition, a portion of the funds will be set aside as an emergency fund. This ensures that we have the necessary resources to navigate unexpected hurdles and maintain stability in times of crisis. Your contribution, regardless of its size, will serve as a beacon of hope for my family. It signifies a step towards a brighter future, liberated from the constant threats that have plagued us in Gaza. I am profoundly grateful for your consideration and support during this challenging time. To contribute to our campaign, please visit [insert fundraising link]. Your generosity will have a profound impact on our lives, and I genuinely appreciate your willingness to stand in solidarity with us on this journey. Thank you for your compassion, empathy, and support. Together, we can rewrite the narrative for my family and countless others who seek refuge from the devastating impacts of war. With heartfelt gratitude,
 Mosa abu shaban
