Hope Beyond Borders: Help Our Family Flee Gaza

Donation protected
Dear compassionate souls,

I am Mahmoud, a resident of Canada, Ontario, speaking to you with a heart brimming with hope and desperation. My family, nestled in the turmoil of Gaza, faces daily battles for survival. War has stolen their peace, leaving them to endure unimaginable hardships.

My elderly father, alongside my siblings and their children, lives under the constant threat of danger, their lives uprooted by the ceaseless cycle of conflict. Despite seeking refuge in UN shelters and facilities run by Doctors Without Borders, even these havens are not immune to the horrors of war.

  • The neighborhood our family lives in

Just recently, a Doctors Without Borders shelter, meant to offer sanctuary, became the site of an unspeakable tragedy. A tank shell shattered the illusion of safety, leaving my family injured and scarred. Violence knows no bounds, sparing neither the weak nor the innocent.

Each evacuation pushes my family further from home and safety, but their spirit remains unbroken, fueled by the unwavering hope for a peaceful tomorrow.

Today, I implore you to join me in this mission—not merely a fundraiser, but a lifeline for my family. Your support will be a beacon of hope, a chance for them to escape the clutches of violence and embrace a future free from fear.

This is about more than saving lives; it's about preserving dignity, providing medical care for my ailing father, and ensuring my nephews grow up in a world where joy drowns out the echoes of war.

I urge you to stand with me, to turn compassion into action, and to help my family write a new chapter—one filled with peace, safety, and the promise of a brighter tomorrow.

How Funds Will Be Used:

Your generosity is a lifeline for my family in these troubled times. With every donation, you're not just giving money; you're giving hope, safety, and a chance for a new beginning. Here's how your support will make a difference:

1.Emergency Relocation: Funds will directly support the safe relocation of my family from Gaza to a peaceful environment through Egypt. This includes the necessary $5,000 per family member for safe passage, ensuring a coordinated and secure transition away from conflict.

2.Medical Care for My Father: A portion of your donations will provide essential medical treatment for my father, who is battling a serious heart condition. In times of war, access to healthcare is limited, making your support crucial for his well-being.

3.Essential Living Expenses: During this period of upheaval, ensuring my family has access to basic necessities is a priority. Your donations will cover the costs of food, shelter, and other essentials as we work to rebuild our lives in a new location.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Mahmoud and his family!
