Help Three Queer Friends Escape Gaza and Resettle

Donation protected
Dear Friends and Supporters,

We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits, seeking your support in helping us, three queer friends, escape the harrowing conditions of Gaza and resettle in a place where we can live our lives authentically and without fear.

Living as queer individuals in Gaza has been incredibly challenging. Our identities are not only misunderstood but actively persecuted in this conservative society. We've faced discrimination, threats, and violence simply for being who we are. The LGBTQ+ community in Gaza is forced to live in secrecy, unable to express themselves openly or seek the support and rights that should be afforded to all human beings.

With the recent escalation of war and ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, our situation has become increasingly dire. We fear for our safety every single day. The limited resources, lack of opportunities, and the constant threat of violence have made it nearly impossible for us to envision a future here. We dream of a place where we can live openly, without fear of persecution or harm, where we can be accepted for who we are, without judgment or discrimination.

That's why we're turning to you, our community, for help. We're raising funds to support our journey out of Gaza and to assist with our resettlement in a safer environment. Your contributions will go towards travel expenses (5000$) for one person, visa fees, temporary housing, and initial living expenses in our new home. Every dollar, every share, and every word of encouragement makes a difference.

We understand that times are tough for many, but even the smallest contribution can have a profound impact on our lives. Your support will not only help us escape a dangerous situation but will also provide us with the opportunity to rebuild our lives and pursue our dreams.

Please stand with us in solidarity as we embark on this journey towards safety, freedom, and acceptance. Together, we can make a difference and help create a world where everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, can live with dignity, respect, and love.

Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and support.

With love and gratitude.
