Support Wafaa Ziad Massoud's Family in Gaza

Hello! My name is Skyler Martinez, and I am from the United States. I am creating this fundraiser for my friend Wafaa Ziad Massoud and her six children, who have been displaced within the Gaza Strip.

Wafaa's Story:

Wafaa Ziad Massound, 34, used to live with her husband and seven children. Heartbreakingly, her husband and eldest son were killed in March of 2024, her house was demolished, and the family has been displaced six different times. Wafaa is now a widowed mother of six children, and she needs enough money to house, feed, and provide medical care for the entire family - many of which have special needs. Wafaa also suffers from epilepsy and nerve pain and needs medical care as well.

The Children:

Wafaa's eldest daughter is 16 years old and has special needs that require constant medical care. Her second eldest, Mohammed, is 7 years old. Mohammed suffers from chronic allergies and chest seizures. Wafaa's youngest children consist of her daughter Seren (6 years old), son Laith (5 years old), daughter Abeer (4 years old), and her baby, Os, who is only 6 months old.

The Goal:

Our goal is to raise $10,000 USD. This amount will help cover the cost of buying a tent for shelter, food, and other essentials, as well as any and all medical care Wafaa's family needs.

Each donation will be collected and given directly to Wafaa and her children through a bank deposit.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for listening to Wafaa's story. Please consider donating and keeping this beautiful family in your thoughts and prayers.

Edit on 10/27/24: We have changed the goal from $15,000 to $10,000.
