Please help me and my family so we can get out of Gaza.

Hello my dear friends, I hope you are all well. Please help me!!!

I am Mahmoud Anwar from the besieged northern Gaza Strip. I have launched my campaign to help my family and save them from the suffering we are enduring. Our lives, hopes, and ambitions have been destroyed. Our livelihood has been shattered, we have lost dear friends and many relatives, and our home has been completely demolished. Now, we live in a plastic tent inside a school run by UNRWA.

We suffer from the heat of the sun, which causes headaches, migraines, skin allergies, and many other diseases. During winter, we endure the severe cold and lack of adequate cover. We have no food, water, medicine, or even the basic necessities of life, as prices have skyrocketed to the point that we cannot afford anything.

At this time, I have launched a fundraising campaign so people can donate and help us rebuild our lives, or at least improve these unfortunate circumstances. I, Mahmoud Anwar, and my family are registered and may soon be called to evacuate. These funds are crucial for our evacuation. Let’s aim to ensure that my entire family can escape together!

Mahmoud's Message:

Hello, I am Mahmoud from Gaza. I am still alive after a year and five months of war. This is my fifth war, but it is unlike any other. I am trying to raise money for myself and my family, as we are determined to leave for safety while this catastrophe continues. We want to leave Gaza for Egypt through the Rafah Crossing and Hala Travel Company.

This was an incredibly difficult decision for me, but it is the fate of my family and me. I feel ashamed to ask you for donations to save my family of 20 members, most of whom are young children. The goal is to raise enough money to reach safety. Details about Hala Travel Company are provided at the end of this message.

Please contribute, even if it’s just a small amount. Donate anything you can, share my pictures, share my story—every little action makes a difference. I have full faith in you and your generosity.

My father suffers from heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure, while my mother endures severe back pain due to slipped discs. She does not have a medical mattress and sleeps on the floor, which exacerbates her pain.

My God, what has happened to us? I have lost my memories and the dreams I’ve cherished for so long. My childhood home, once full of life, is now a heap of ashes. I have lost my livelihood—my clothing shop that once supported my family has been completely destroyed, leaving me burdened with debts from suppliers that I had taken just days before the current wave of war.

Note: When circumstances improve and I gather enough money to reunite my entire family here in Gaza, I plan to move them to a safer place or attempt to go to Egypt. The current cost per adult is $5,000, while for a child, it is $2,500. These prices may fluctuate. Please help us by donating even the smallest amount or sharing our campaign. I would be forever grateful.
