Help Osama and his Family to Evacuate from Gaza

Donation protected
Hello,

My name is Osama Hussein, and I'm 27 years old. I studied interior design at Gaza College, graduating in 2019. I've been practicing drawing as a hobby since childhood, using my brush and colors to convey my feelings, messages, and ideas.

I've lived in Gaza since birth, a small homeland that accommodates us all. Despite its dense population, there is space for each person. I love it and cherish the homeland as I have since childhood. I reside in Gaza with my family - my mother, father, and sisters Riham and Rania.

I've witnessed several wars in Gaza, but this recent one has been exceptionally harsh and difficult, marked by its severity, bloodshed, and casualties. Every night, we sleep to the sounds of explosions and rockets that strike our hearts before our homes. Waking up to news of the martyrdom of someone dear to us has become a painful routine.

Our days involve searching for food and water, a task now nearly impossible to achieve easily and at reasonable prices. Many hours are spent just to secure a bit of bread and water for our family. My family and I have been displaced three times, moving from one house to another until reaching my aunt's house in Rafah.

I never expected the war to persist and intensify to this moment as I write this message. I am hopeful that my voice reaches, and my family and I can leave Gaza to preserve what remains of our lives. Like any other person on Earth, I seek safety, security, and stability away from death, rockets, and hunger.

I am Osama, the ambitious artist who has always seen his parents proud of him, his art, and his determined goals despite limited resources. My small studio, filled with paintings and beauty, was completely destroyed during the war. All I desire now is to survive with my family and art. This time, I genuinely seek help only to save our lives.
