Donation protected
Hello, my name is Kelly and I am creating this fundraiser to help Mohammed raise funds for his family besieged in Gaza. As GoFundMe cannot release funds to Turkey, I am creating this fundraiser for him. He has been helping coordinate getting funds to my friend Yousef, in the other campaign I am assisting with.

"Hi, My name is Mohammed, a young Palestinian man who is a student in Istanbul, Turkey. I am reaching out for support to help my family members leave Gaza and reach Turkey. more than 70 of my relatives were mercilessly killed by the Israeli under the watch of my children. I have a family consisting of a wife, Rola (26), and 2 children, Roze (7) and Kiraz (1).
I left Gaza to study Master befor a year and my return to Gaza was scheduled for the eighth of October, but the war happened and since then I have not met my family.
• My family were displaced under bombing to Al-Quds Hospital in Gaza in the Tal Al-Hawa area on October 20, and they did not have anything with them.
• They were forced to stay in Al-Quds Hospital for a full month on the fifth floor without taking anything with them, neither clothes, nor money, nor even food, nor sleeping covers. They stayed there for 35 days until the occupation arrived at the hospital and bombed next to them. When I communicated with them throughout the day, I would cry out loud. My mother and I feel helpless because I cannot help them or help my brothers because I am far away from them
•My family's homes were bombed and completely destroyed, were 20 of my cousins where killed ​​in front of my family's eyes.
• My father works in agriculture, and we have land to cultivate. It was time to pick olives on the day the war began, and he was unable to work on picking olives. thus he lost his their income.
My wife and children are still in the East, and every day they are daley forst to leave from one place to another to stay a live. There is no food, no water, or even communication, which made me very desprate to get them out of Gaza. there is only one way to get them out of Gaza, which is through Egypt and then to another country, but there is a payment of $5,000 - $7000 for each person to leave the Rafah crossing because the Gaza Strip is besieged.
• Rafah crossing fees have a cost, as there is a list of arrangements in which an amount is paid for each person to exit Gaza
• There is a fee at the Rafah crossing of $35 for a visa per person, in addition to $15 for the bus per person.
• Residence in Cairo for 3-4 weeks while awaiting papers.
• Airline tickets for 4 people from Cairo to Türkiye. Settlement expenses (for the first two months until finding a job) means: • Rent • Furniture
• Winter gear to adapt to the weather
• Health coverage
• Living cost
If you are able to donate, a little or a lot, to keep my family members safe, please do so. A pot will not end the bombs, the innocent deaths, the shattered lives of the ongoing genocide or the brutal colonization of Palestine. But I repeat it and will repeat it again and again: each of these lives matters.
thanks alot
Mohammed
