Help my Family Evacuate Gaza & Escape the War
Hi, I am Mohammed Al-Batish, a Palestinian young man from Gaza.
I have never imagined before that I will experience such a a destructive conflict in Gaza. I am writing today asking for your kind and generous support to help my family evacuate Gaza to escape from death and hunger and rebuild our house which was totally destroyed.
Let me tell you my story ⬇️⬇️
I am 15 years old. I am in grade 9. I am a high-achieving student . I always seek academic excellence and aspire to pursue my education in the field of programming, applications, sites and games development
(With my little brother in the honoring ceremony for the best students)
My family and I have been displaced several times. We left our house in east Gaza to a relative's house in west Gaza. A week later, we were obliged to move to south Gaza (Nusairat camp).
Two months later, we were displaced again to(EL Zawayda). We stayed there for one week and left under gunfire to Rafah.
We don't have a stable or safe residence.
The disastrous situation in Rafah (south Gaza) is unbearable. It is going from worse to worse. There is no clean water to drink, not enough food, no electricity, very bad internet connection, no health care as most hospitals and clinics were destroyed, and no education. In simple words, there is no life here. We need to leave Gaza as fast as we can.
What have my family and I lost in this war?? ⬇️⬇️
My family's house in east Gaza was totally destroyed. It consisted of 5 floors containing 4 families. Our floor was 210 metres.
My parents worked very hard during 12 years living in a rented flat to build our house of dreams. It cost them about 90,000$ to prepare and furnish our floor.
We only lived 4 years in our beloved house before blowing it up
In the picture below, you can notice a small car between the rubbles.It was a gift from my parents when I was two years old. The other picture shows my two brothers and sister driving it in the backyard of our building.
My family and I, like most Palestinians, suffer from malnutrition. We haven't eaten any eggs, meat, or chicken for 4 months. We totally depend on canned food. We also suffer from bad hygiene. We feel lucky if we can bathe twice a month due to lack of water and detergents.
My dad suffers from high blood pressure and he was transferred to hospital several times during the war.
The miserable life here makes his health condition worse every day.
I suffer from allergy to dust and pungent odors. I can hardly breathe because of the bombardment everywhere and take medication to relieve my suffering.
How can you help and support?⬇️⬇️
I am launching this campaign because I am afraid of losing any member of my family. I want to help them get out of here till the war ends.
It is the call of humanity to pursue humanity and move to a safer place. It is the call of education and knowledge to pursue our education which we are deprived of like all the Palestinians in Gaza these days. It is the call of generousness to support rebuild our destroyed house.
Travel coordination costs to Egypt through the Rafah Border Crossing are very high.
It costs 5000 to 7000 $ per person.
This means my family needs about 30000 $ fees to leave for Egypt.
With your generous support and help, you can help my family and me leave Gaza during the war to pursue education and rebuild our house again.
Note that I can withdraw money through my relative in Ireland
I am confident that your support will make a difference in our lives.
let me show my gratitude and thanks in advance for your understanding and participation.
You are kindly asked to share my story to reach as many people as you can.
