Help Ahmed Shamia's Family rebuild their life and their home
Donation protected
I am Ahmed Shameya, I’m 30 years old Palestinian independent
activist from Gaza. My family consists of 9 members.
Before the war I used to work as an English-Arabic language translator, independent Journalist, and editor and was earning my income until the beginning of the war.
I have been learning the English language for more than ten years to reach out to people worldwide to tell them about our suffering in Palestine, especially in the Gaza Strip.
My family lives in extreme poverty caused mainly by the siege imposed on Gaza by Israel for 17 years.
All my family depends on me to bring money as my father is
Old man, and he has LUKEMIA.
I believe each family in Gaza has its own tragic story! However, here my family's story due to the war in Gaza:
the war has been started in 7 th October and I live in khan Younis
city southern Gaza Strip, I was liveing in A small house with my
Mother, father, sister, husband and my daughter, we have been
expelled from our small home and we now live in a tent for more than 3 months, after the Israeli forces withdrew from khan Younis I went to my home and I have been shocked that we have no home and the my small home was destroyed by Israeli forces, and we became HOMLESS.
I was trying so hard before the war to live with my family and I couldn't manage to find a job that would help me to feed and build a house for my family.
I have been suffering from poor eyesight, and I LOST my right eye;
also I have Intraocular pressure Retinal detachment in my left eye,
And my father is suffering from leukaemia.
We have barely been able to earn money to cover our living expenses due to the war, Our life is sohorrible. It's even beyond awful. My heart tore each moment I saw my family dreaming of a decent life, but our dream has been smashed due to the war And after my house has been destroyed We have a large family, and now we have no home. Thus, I feel so desperate.
We have been put thousands of plans with my family to live in our
house We’re now in a place of refuge in KhanYounis city, where the
minimum necessities of life are not available. There is no clean water,healthy food, or anything suitable for living after we saw our home destroyed by Israeli forces we have this final plan, and I hope it will work to form the most fantastic surprise for my family:
now I am launching this campaign, hoping it makes our dream come true again, And rebuild our house I'll do my best to reach out to every single person who would help me to rebuild my house.
How the donation will help me: The donation will come to me and i
will start rebuild my house after the Israeli forces destroyed it.
I hope that if you went through this, you would DONATE to my
campaign by any means you have to make us FOREVER GRATEFUL TO YOU!
