Help Raouf's Family Escape Gaza
Donation protected
Hello! My name is Henry, and I'm a college student from Chicago, IL raising money for Raouf and his family. Raouf is a father in Gaza, and needs funding to evacuate himself and his family and acquire housing in a new and safer location. Raouf used to work in a barber shop, but this shop has been destroyed by constant bombing. Raouf's house is in ruins. He and his two children, aged 2 and 5 years old, want to live in peace and security. Below are some quotes from Raouf regarding the danger of his situation and his hopes for a better life:
"[My children] want to be like other people, living in safety and peace. You know about us in Gaza. Every day there is bombing and killing. There is no safe area. Every day we go to an area, not an area in the streets. We do not know where to go. Every day we go to a new displacement.
For God's sake. My children. They want to live. I used to work as a barber. I had a salon and [I] had a house. Everything is gone. Nothing is left. The future in Gaza lives in your children. Everything is gone. It has become like water. Nothing is left.
We did not have internet, and all night long the situation was very difficult because there was bombing. In Khan Yunis in Sharqia, in Abasan Al-Kabira. The situation was difficult for us, I swear. When, Lord, do we want to rest and live like other people? Every day there is fear and terror among children, every day there are injuries, every day there are martyrs. Food and water, there is nothing that makes us tired, oh God, and by God, we are tired. Death is the best thing that has happened to us.
I am Raouf from Gaza. I need help for me and my children."
I implore you to donate whatever you can to help Raouf and his family escape Gaza and get to safety. Every and any donation counts.
