Help my Family scape the horrors of war in Sudan.

My name is Mohamad, and fundraising for my friend Asmaa and her extended family to evacuate Sudan and start a lasting project to sustain their lives.

Here is Asmaa's message:

My name is Asmaa. Picture me as the ray of hope in my family of ten and my extended family of over 40 people. Before the devastating war in Sudan, my biggest dream was to change my family's lives for the better, lifting them out of poverty and giving them the gift of education. Amidst all the chaos, I'm the only one who managed to pursue an education. I completed my master's degree last May and started working to provide for my family and extended family, with the help of two cousins. However, the war and losing my job last December turned our lives upside down. Now, I'm drowning in debt, struggling to keep a roof over my head in a foreign land, and unable to send money back home. With no job, I lie awake at night worrying about how to help them. They're barely getting by, living on scraps, and the kids can't even go to school because of the war.

Let me introduce you to my extended family:

Mecca, a widow raising her son and three daughters; Um Kalthoum, another widow caring for her seven children; Al-Sham, divorced and supporting her four little ones; along with Liyla, a mother of three battling a chronic illness.

My older sister's husband disappeared during the war while working in dangerous gold mines, leaving behind five young children.

Rwan and Miral, my lovely nieces

I've always dreamed of seeing them live a life free from hunger and fear, where the kids can laugh, play, and go to school without worry. My sister has 4 young girls and a boy, and my other sister also has a 5-year-old, Bashir (seen in my main picture), who broke his arm during the war. With no access to hospitals, they're relying on traditional medicine. All of them are of school age, yet none of them are able to attend school or even study on the tablet I sent them, due to the lack of electricity and internet.

Prescriptions were never and will never be filled

My family sends me medical prescriptions, and my sister sent me her eyeglass prescription. But even if I could buy everything, I can't send them to my family due to the war. Some family members are facing health problems, and due to the ongoing war, they've been relying on lentils and beans for months because of the scarcity and high prices of other food. Moreover, they're forced to drink contaminated salty water, which raises concerns about kidney damage and other health issues with no access to hospitals.

What the money for?!

My aim is to support my family in obtaining passports and evacuating to the nearest safe country, be it Egypt, Uganda, or a Gulf country. However, the cost for this is not only high but also unpredictable, given the volatile nature of wartime conditions where prices and timelines can double unexpectedly. Furthermore, I aspire to establish a sustainable source of income for my family's future stability.

I humbly request you to continue sharing our story, leaving words of encouragement, and donating if you can. Each contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to my goal and closer to providing my family with the opportunities they deserve. This campaign is a beacon of hope for me and for them, and I am deeply grateful for all the support I receive.

With heartfelt thanks and abundant love,

Asmaa
