Help Palestinian Med student keep her residency

Ola is a Palestinian medical student from Dura, Palestine studying in Turkey who is struggling to meet her university's required payments due to the War on Gaza leaving her at risk of deportation back to Palestine. With her parent's salaries paused in Palestine and loan requests denied by banks due to the constant raids in the West Bank and the War on Gaza, Ola is unable to meet a 5-day deadline for a 2 year residency permit. Please consider pitching in what you can to ensure Ola safe residence in Turkey and allow her to continue her medical studies.

I became aware of Ola's situation from a friend who is close with Ola's cousin. This friend has visited Ola's family countless times during 1.5 years of living in the West Bank and knows the family well as hospitable, generous, and overall kind-hearted. Ola's parents are capable of paying for her studies and necessities in "regular" times; however, the economy in the West Bank has suffered tremendously since the recent iteration of Israel's siege on Gaza. Her parent's salaries have been paused for an unpredictable amount of time. Their attempts to request a bank loan have been rejected (because of state of the economy) and are currently seeking scholarship options (which will take time). The family feels sorrow that they cannot support Ola's education and, more urgently, her residency in Turkey right now.

Ola's *urgent* need by Thursday, November 23 evening EST: 1,100 USD for a 2 year residency permit in order to secure her stay and safety in Turkey. Turkey is requiring her to file this paperwork by Friday, November 23.

Beyond the urgent need, we'd like to offer Ola two months of living costs (frugally inclusive of rent, groceries, transport to classes) until her parents are able to support her again: 1,200 USD

Any and all funds above this amount will go towards her annual tuition for medical studies.
