Support a Mother's Struggle for Her Children

Dear Humanity,

My name is Nasreen, I am 37 years old, and I am a mother to four children: Leila (13 years old), Amal (8 years old), Mohamed (4 years old), and baby Samaa (1 year old). We live in Gaza with my mother and my brother Islam. Life has not been easy for us, especially after we lost the children’s father. Overnight, I became their sole provider, their only source of security and hope.

Before the war, I worked at a women’s protection organization, which gave me a sense of purpose and allowed me to contribute to my community while securing a better future for my children. But the war took everything from us—our home, our security, and our livelihood.

My children, who used to laugh and play, now live in fear and deprivation. Leila tries to help me despite her young age, and Amal asks me when our life will return to what it was, but I have no answer. Mohamed, who was once full of energy, has become silent, and baby Samaa has never known the warmth of safety in a real home.

My mother, who was always our pillar, is now suffering from health issues. My younger brother is doing his best to support us, but job opportunities are almost nonexistent, and we rely entirely on the little aid we are able to receive.

Our shelter provides no protection from the cold, rain, or winds. My children have no warm clothes or blankets to protect them from the cold nights. We lack milk for Samaa, diapers, and the basic food supplies that are almost gone, and hunger is now threatening us. Every day feels like an endless struggle for survival, and I am beginning to lose my strength.

I started this fundraising campaign out of desperation, hoping that your kindness will help me protect my children and give them a chance to survive. Every donation will contribute to providing a meal for my children or giving them warm clothes to protect them from the harsh cold. Your donations will help secure medication for my mother and provide the essentials such as milk and diapers for Samaa.

Please, if you are able, support us during this critical time. If you cannot donate, sharing our story with others may help us reach those who can assist us. Every act, no matter how small, means so much to us and gives us hope to keep going.

Thank you for standing with us in our darkest times.
