Help Evacuate a Deaf Palestinian Family from Gaza to Peace
Donation protected
Hello everyone, my name is Yasmin and I live in the Netherlands. I am raising money on behalf of a deaf Palestinian family to help them evacuate from Gaza. They do not have relatives outside Palestine to create their own GoFundMe account, so Hoda, the matriarch of the family, asked me to help and ask for your support to rebuild their lives.
In the heart of stricken Gaza, where I tell my story from inside Gaza.
• Hoda and Ashraf are married, and we are people of determination ( deaf ) who cannot hear or speak. We have 4 daughters ( Yara, Warda, Farah, and Toleen) .
• From Ashraf: We were displaced from a home in northern Gaza to southern Gaza. The occupation destroyed our home and our beautiful offspring in our home in Gaza, and now we live in a tent and have no shelter.
• This loss circle didn’t end here, cause after more than 5 times of being displaced and having to leave our house escaping from rockets and death, we returned to our house and found it almost wiped off, more than half if it was destroyed and became an unlivable place leaving us not only with tired hearts but also without a place to stay in
• From Hoda: We live moments of panic over and over again in this hideous war on Gaza. We move between shelter and shelter, but we find ourselves in this harsh reality inside a nylon tent that does not protect from the bitter cold and rain, as the recent bombings in Gaza shattered our lives and left my family without shelter. Homeless and without any possessions, our beloved home, a symbol of our efforts and love, has been completely destroyed in this war. We find ourselves with nothing but the clothes on us. We have seen destruction and death up close, as the basics of life have become unattainable wishes, no water, no electricity. The task of obtaining food is extremely difficult. My daughters suffer from severe psychological trauma, and it may be difficult for them to recover.
• From Ashraf: Trapped between the walls of constant danger, we have hope of escaping to a safe place, but travel has become impossible due to its high costs, and we find ourselves trapped in horrors with no chance of escape.
The funds raised will be used for the following purposes:
• The cost of evacuating my family, me, my husband, and my four children, is $20,000 ( Hala charges $5,000 per adult and $2,500 per child )
Transaction fees (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction)
• The rest of the money will be for housing, food, etc. for a period of time in Egypt
• Your support during this extremely difficult time will give us hope in the midst of despair. We will build a future for my family again with your support. Every dollar you donate to us will be our reason for going out Safety and peace.
• Please support us, even if it is a simple thing.
