Support the Awad Family's Journey to Safety

Hello dear friends,

My name is Haneen Awad, a Palestinian from Gaza Strip. I'm a mother of 6 young kids aged between 22 and 9.

My daughter Naeema, 22 years old, is in her 2nd year of college studying public relations and media. Mumen, 17 years old, is in his last year of high school. Abdul Rahman, who's 14 years old, is in his 8th grade. My baby twins, Elias and Elan, are 9 years old and in 3rd grade.

We lost all we have: our home, loved ones, schools, and universities. Our entire life just vanished in the blink of an eye. We have no future here anymore. We're hungry and thirsty. We live in fear of being killed every second in a small tent. All we do is pray that they will wake up the next morning alive. Help us to leave as a family to gather our shattered life before it's too late.

My children , hopelessness and Ilan and Saji , are facing unimaginable difficulties. The sound of war has become a daily reality for them. Whenever they hear explosions, they freeze in place, engulfed in fear and anxiety. Their screams and tears echo, as they endure the psychological and emotional scars left by the ravages of war on their young souls.

Our city is facing repeated attacks and widespread destruction, making life here impossible.

We fear for our safety and our children's safety every moment we remain in this hell,therefore we urgently request your help to leave. We live in constant fear of explosives and suffer from severe shortage of food,water and medical care and supplies due to the catastrophic condition here. Additionally 21 members of our family members have been killed,some are still missing and buried under the rubles due to the airstrikes and indiscriminate targeting our city.

God bless you and bless your families.
