Help Saleh Tayeh's Family Escape Conflict

Hello, my name is Jocelyn Bridges and I am helping crowdfund for my friend Saleh from Gaza. Here is a message from him (translated from Arabic and grammar checked by me) all funds will be sent to him via Western Union:

My name is Saleh Nawaf Tayeh, and I'm from Deir al Balah in the Gaza Strip. Like everyone in Gaza, on October 7, 2023, my life was turned upside down by the horrors of war and genocide. I was studying engineering at Palestine Technical College where I dreamed of making a positive impact on society, until the occupation tore through Gaza, leaving destruction everywhere. The university I attended was destroyed, along with my aspirations, and everything else in Gaza. Despite everything, I refuse to give up.

My family means everything to me, and right now, they are facing unimaginable challenges. My parents are in Cairo, hospitalized with chronic illnesses that have worsened due to the conflict. With eight siblings to care for, the weight of responsibility is overwhelming. Tragically, my house was bombed and now me and my family have to live in a small room together. The cost of food and survival is high, and we are under the constant stress of bombing, I have to live in fear for my and my family's safety every day.

I am determined to find a way to keep my family safe. That’s why I’m reaching out for help. I wish to relocate to Egypt to reunite with my father and mother who are being treated at Banha University in Cairo. Right now my goal is to raise enough funds to evacuate with my family to Egypt, which is very expensive. The funds raised will be spent through the Hala Company which transports Gazans to Egypt.

Thank you for reading this and considering my story. You can help by donating, sharing, and supporting humanitarian efforts across Gaza.

Thank you for your generosity and support.

Your friend,

Saleh Tayeh
