Help the Ahmed Family leave Gaza

Donation protected
Sally and Ahmed are a couple from Gaza City. They have been married for 8 years now with no kids yet. Since their marriage, they have been struggling to live a decent life amid the circumstances of unemployment in Gaza because of the ongoing siege imposed on the Strip. Ahmed is a nurse who could never find a position that matches his studies, and who, therefore, worked in a tax office with very low salary. Sally is an English graduate who has always aspired to be a passionate English teacher. To help her husband, she started giving private lessons for kids to secure her daily expenses.
Sally and Ahmed's dream was to have a little baby who would fill their life with joy. With the very scarce income they have, they started their treatment journey, but all the attempts failed. They are still trying. And they will never lose hope that one day, they be a family of three!

After 8 years of working tirelessly, toiling, sacrificing, and saving every hard-earned penny, Sally and Ahmed decided to a buy an on-installment house for 12 years, making life even harder for them. Just 9 months later, the war broke out, forcing the couple to move to the south. They left their house heartbroken, praying that they will return to it soon. A month later, Sally woke up to the news that the tower where their house is located was bombed. They prayed and prayed their flat was not affected. Yet, unfortunately, the pictures revealed the misery. Sally and Ahmed could see the eight years of hard work and dreams turned into dust. Sally and Ahmed found themselves amidst the wreckage, not just of bricks and mortar, but of the life they had meticulously built together.



Sally and Ahmed are left behind, with no shelter, with no income, with no dreams of a house, of a job or of a little baby. Ahmed who lost everything not only provides for his wife, but also for his parents and younger sister. They, therefore, are calling you, and appealing you for help. They aspire to find safety somewhere else to rebuild their future and to achieve their dreams.

They are targeting to collect $40,000 that would be divided as follows:
1. Sally's evacuation- $5000
2. Ahmed's evacuation- $5000
3. Rent and expenses for 6 months in Egypt- $10,000
4. Small project (Falafel shop) for living in Egypt- $10,000
5. ACHIEVING THEIR DREAM OF BABY! (treatment)- $10,000

In the face of adversity, Sally and Ahmed stand undeterred, fueled by the hope that rises from the ashes of despair. We, as a community, have the power to be the architects of their resurgence. Let us unite to rebuild the foundation of their dreams, brick by brick, until their dreams arise once more.
