Save the life of Baby Ahmed and his family

My name is Israa Abu Jazar, I am 23 years old, married to Nidal, 24, and mother of a one-year-old son: Ahmad. I am reaching out to you in a desperate plea for help. Until October 7th, we were living a peaceful and happy life in Gaza, but the beginning of the war in Gaza turned our world upside down, leaving us in a state of utter despair. As a result of the war, we lost everything: our home, our possessions, and even our basic necessities. The situation in Gaza has deteriorated rapidly, leaving us without electricity, water, and adequate food supplies. We were forced to leave our (now destroyed) home under fire with nothing but our passports and some clothes. The area we lived in was completely destroyed and now we are struggling to meet our most basic needs. My family is currently living in a two-meter-high tent without basic necessities. I am reaching out to you, my dear friends, with a humble request for support. We are in dire need of $5,000 per person to evacuate my family from Gaza and find safety elsewhere. This amount will cover transportation costs, temporary shelter and provide us with the means to start over and continue my children’s education. We have exhausted all our resources and tried to pool our savings to escape Gaza, but this is simply not enough to cover the costs of leaving for all of us. These costs include transportation and basic necessities, which we cannot afford. Travel expenses include:

• Gazans are required to pay $5,000 for each adult allowed into Egypt, and $2,500 for each child.

• Rent ($400 per month)

• Clothing

• Food

• Shopping expenses

I realize that times are tough for everyone, but any contribution, no matter how small, can make a huge impact on our lives. Your support will not only help us escape the genocide taking place in Gaza, but it will also give my family the opportunity to rebuild our lives and find stability in Egypt.

Your generosity and kindness can make a huge difference in my family’s life during this difficult time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your concern and support for our cause.

With gratitude,
