Please help Minya and her family escape G@z@

Hi, my name is Jo-Anne Neumann-Taylor (neé Taylor) from the UK. I'm organising this fundraiser on behalf of Minya (Monia). I met Minya through a friend in Gaza who is living in a neighbouring tent.

Minya has 8 people who she needs to evacuate from Gaza. This includes herself, her mother and father, her sister and the four children of her brother who was martyred. Minya's parents are both suffering from diabetes and high blood pressure. Until his death, Minya's brother had provided for them, but now they need your help.

In Minya's words:

"I am Minya from the Gaza Strip. I live with my family in difficult circumstances, under bombardment, under suffering, and under genocide. Our house was bombed and completely demolished, so now we are displaced, without shelter, displaced in a tent in the street. A nylon tent does not protect us from anything. It is made of curtains and nylon, as if we are living in the occupation street. All our beautiful memories were erased from us. We left our house from under the rubble. We survived this time, but at any time I will be a martyr. I and my family, which consists of eight members, are all injured from the war. We are all tired, and we all contracted hepatitis from lack of water and lack of food. We are now hungry without food. Life. Very expensive. Imagine that in order to eat we line up and in order to drink water we line up. We are living in suffering after 300 days of war, destruction and fatigue. I thought about creating a fundraising fund to get my family out of this hell and from this torment. Donate to me, O world, and help me. I am speaking to your consciences. Donate to me even if Five dollars means and makes a lot of difference to me. Help me. Help me and donate to me, O world. I appeal to you. My family will die at any moment. We will be martyrs. And every night we flee from one area to another. The bombing follows us everywhere. There is no safe place in all of Gaza. Help me. Help me. To bathe. We go to the sea. Why because? Water comes once every month. Imagine that. In order to shower and wash our clothes, we go to the sea. O world, listen to my voice. I am dying. In order to cook food over the fire, my brothers and I go and risk our lives under the trees. We collect grass and nylon. Donate to me. Spread my campaign link to your friends. Help me. Help me."

Minya needs $48,000 dollars ($6000 each) to evacuate her family. This is roughly £37, 412.

The remaining money from the goal will be used for Gofundme's fees and to account for fluctuations in the value of the US dollar to the British pound. Funds will be withdrawn by myself (Jo) and transferred via PayPal to Minya.

The full list of people who will be evacuated are:

Monia Khaled Abu Awaili, 24 years old (Minya)
