Help Yazan’s family leave Gaza for medical aid

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Yazan Matar, I am 18 years old.

Our story begins on October 7th, when a violent war broke out in the Gaza Strip. I was living with my family in our home in Gaza City, where we were living a beautiful and peaceful life before the war surprised us.

A week after the war began, my family and I were forced to flee from the Gaza Strip, “our original place of residence,” to the Nuseirat camp, which the occupation army claimed was a safe place. A month after we fled to the Nuseirat camp, the place we were in at the time was targeted, even though we were all civilians, as we were pulled out from under the rubble. I and all my sisters and brothers were injured, and we lost my eldest brother who was martyred during that period.

 In addition to losing all our money and personal belongings in this targeting, which forced us to move more than once from one place to another in search of a safer place, and during this difficult period my mother was shot twice by four-wheel drive planes while sitting in the garden of the chalet we were displaced to the last time, and she was transferred to the hospital, but due to the lack of capabilities in the hospital, she was treated incorrectly and the splint was applied incorrectly, which caused health complications for her and she needs surgery outside Gaza. 

Now, I am in dire need of help to get me and my family out of the Gaza Strip to a safer and more stable place, along with the ability to operate on my mother and because I am not ready to bear the pain of loss and the loss of another member of my family, I ask you to help me get out of this tragic situation and search for a better life away from wars and conflicts.

We need your support and help to rebuild our lives and start a new journey towards safety and peace.

The man raising the funds is based in the UK and has agreed to help with this. He plans on transferring the funds to our family via Western Union once the money has been gathered.
