Help us to stay alive

Helping my little sister en my family stay alive in Gaza.

 My name is Islam, I live in Belgium. It has been four years since the last time i saw my family. I am reaching out to you in desperate need of assistance to help my family to stay alive in Gaza after it was ravaged by war, Life in Gaza has become very difficult and everything is expensive.

My sister Gigi tells you .

Hello, my name is Gigi Al-Buhaisi. In October 2023 I lost my Job, and the home that I furnished with my fiancee. Because of the war, I got married without any celebration. And hence I missed the joy of the most important day in any woman's life: her wedding day. Since the beginning of this war we have lived under the threat of death, hunger, and extreme poverty.. Having lost my job, I have had no means of subsistence for a year now. Currently, I am living from your donations, which I am using for my basic needs (food, clothes, tents, blankets, medicine)me, my baby-boy and my whole family.. Indeed, during the war I gave birth to a baby-boy.

Thanks to your donation I've been able to give birth safely and to provide his necessary needs

but now my child is growing as his needs to milk and diapers as well.

The prices are very expensive.For example, diapers cost now $80 and the price of milk is $50. I cannot afford them without your help. Furthermore, my mother has many health issues including the cartilage disease, which requires strong painkillers. Due to the current circumstances, her medicines are no longer available and I am obliged to buy them at a very high price... Through your donation, you are not only saving my life but also the life of my child and large family ... Thank you for that... As the winter is approaching, I need to buy warm clothes, blankets and also to find a hut or house to live in with my family. As you know, after having lost our houses we are living in the tent.

In the beginning, the main purpose of the funds was to help me and my family leave Gaza to Egypt through the Rafah crossing. After the closing of the Rafah crossing for more than 5 months now, the funds main purpose became to help us survive until the crossing opens again. This through providing my child his basic needs, and us food, clean water, and a small safe place that protects us from the heavy cold of winter.

I am writing to you with the tears in my eyes.

Thank you for donating
