Urgent appeal: Escaping devastation in Gaza - saving a family's hope

Dear merciful souls,

I am Tawfik satoom an engineer, I live in Gaza. I was completing my studies, but unfortunately the unimaginable happened. The war came and took everything from me and my family. I extend my hand to you from the depths of despair that we feel while we are in Gaza in the midst of war. Memories of a life that was once peaceful, full of love and security have been stripped away by the merciless horrors of war. Not only are my possessions lying in ruins, but the pain, agony and humiliation inflicted upon us are beyond the reach of mere words.


My family:
Father : Waleed 50
Mother : Mona 40
Sister : Rima 17
Brother : Ahmad 15

Our journey has become a haunting odyssey, and the burden of rebuilding our lives and escaping the darkness prevailing in this war-torn land is insurmountable. As ordinary civilians not affiliated with the conflict, my family and I yearn to...
To be free from this nightmare.

The war destroyed our house, turning it into rubble, and now we find ourselves living in a tent. Life has restricted us greatly, and our only hope is to seek help in escaping this nightmare and making a path towards a decent life.

Now! We only had a tent left.


The harsh truth is that the cost of escaping is staggering - $5,000 per person. For those of us desperately seeking refuge, this amount represents an overwhelming barrier, threatening to imprison us in this suffering.

In our quest for safety and a semblance of normalcy, I turn to you, my fellow humans, for help. Every contribution, whether big or small, is a lifeline that can pull us out of the abyss. Join us in breaking the chains that bind us to this torment.

Be a beacon of hope for Tawfik Satoom and his family. Your support is not just a financial contribution. It is a lifeline to freedom, security and a future free from the horrors of war.

This money will be allocated to evacuate my family of 5 members. Each person needs $5,000 to cross the Egyptian border through Ya Hala Company. The value of the money paid for coordination is 25,000$. 5000$ passport issuance fees and a week in a hotel. After that, there is 20,000$ remaining. Every month, we need 400$-500$ for renting an apartment in Egypt, and we need food expenses of 600$-800$. Thank you. Give us a new, safe life.

With the weight of necessity in my heart,
We deserve to live. Tawfik Satoom
