Support Our Family's Escape from Genocide.

Donation protected
Dear friends, family and compassionate strangers ,

Hello, I'm Waad from Gaza strip . I'm a mother of two, my twin sons mohamed and mahmoud (2 year), wife and a pharmacist . right now, I'm in Gaza, facing the horrors of a genocidal war.


In October 2023, we had to leave our home and our entire life in the wistern Gaza area - Al Shifaa hospital area, and after that we temporarily settled in different homes and shelters due to the escalation and war conditions .


These past five months have been unimaginably tough for us. We've lost loved ones, seen our homes and workplaces destroyed—my pharmacy, where I used to work, is gone.

In November 2023, the Israeli army surrounded Al-Shifa Hospital and destroyed the homes of the surrounding area, where our home is located. Vedio below shows the extent of the destruction in the area!




Now, we're left homeless and without jobs, desperately trying to keep our children safe in the midst of this chaos. It's hard to put into words just how dire the situation is here. Bombs are falling everywhere, death feels like it's closing in, and hunger is becoming a terrifying reality as food supplies run dangerously low.

We're left with only one option to keep our family alive: to leave Gaza. Your donation could make all the difference for us. It could help us escape the hunger, fear, and violence, and give my children a chance at a new life, away from this nightmare.

We humbly ask for your support to help us raise $15,000, which will cover most of the expenses needed for our safe passage from Gaza through the Rafah crossing. Below are details of how the funds will be used:

USD 5,000 for two adults (toll fees) > USD 10,000
$2,500 for one child (toll fees) > $5,000
$400 for (gofundme fee)

The total is $15,400

Every dollar contributed will bring us one step closer to ensuring the safety and well-being of my loved ones' journey!

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for any support you can offer.

My name is Alaa . I am Waad's friend . I live in Germany, specifically in Cologne.

As Waad does not have the necessary means to launch a fundraising campaign from Gaza, I created this fundraiser is on his behalf with his approval.

None of this money will go to anyone other than Waad and her family.



With gratitude,
