Support evacuation of the Deeb family from Gaza

Hello everyone,

I am Farah Deeb, a Dental student from Gaza, and I would like to share my story. On October 25th, our lives were turned upside down. We lost our family home and several members of our family, including my beloved cousins and other relatives. Many of my family members sustained injuries, including my father who suffered injuries to his head and neck.

Since that day, we have been displaced more than seven times across the strip in search of safety. Our last refuge was in a tent, and life has become increasingly difficult with each passing day. We are facing shortages of nutritious food, clean water, and essential medications, in addition to the ongoing genocides in our region. My family is growing weary and fearful of life here.

On the other hand, the future prospects for myself and my family are being shattered. I am currently in my third year of dental school, a critical stage as it marks the beginning of my clinical career as a dentist. Furthermore, my brother, sister, and cousin are in a critical stage of their secondary education, known as "tawjehi," upon which their future careers hinge.

With the escalating aggression in Gaza, it has become imperative for me and my family to evacuate for our survival. The only viable option for evacuation is through the Egyptian border, but this requires a substantial amount of money, up to $7,000 per person.

I have initiated a GoFundMe campaign to seek assistance for myself and my family, totaling 13 members, to cover the costs of evacuation. Your support could make a significant difference in our lives, and we deeply appreciate any help you can offer.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Farah Deeb
