<div><strong> Hello kind souls around the world,</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Khalil Abubaker, and I’m writing to you from Gaza, where my family and I have been living under unimaginable conditions for the past 21 months due to the ongoing war.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>What Happened to My Family</strong>
</div>
<div>Like so many families in Gaza, we’ve lost nearly everything.
</div>
<div>Our <strong>father</strong>, who was the backbone of our household,<strong> lost his job </strong>due to the war and has exhausted his life savings to support us.
</div>
<div>We also ran a <strong>small rabbit farm</strong>, our side business and main income source—until<strong> it was completely destroyed </strong>in an airstrike.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/92463269_1752959739237896_r.jpeg" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Then came the worst tragedy of all:
</div>
<div><strong>I lost my beloved sister and her entire family</strong> when their home was bombed. Only one of her daughters survived. We are now taking care of this precious little girl and doing everything we can to help her heal from this terrible trauma.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>‍‍‍ <strong>Who We Are</strong>
</div>
<div>Our family consists of:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>* Myself, <strong>Khalil Hasan Abubaker</strong>, born 1995
</div>
<div>* My father, <strong>Hassan Khalil Abubaker</strong>, born 1966
</div>
<div>* My mother, <strong>Saeda Saleh Abubaker</strong>, born 1976
</div>
<div>* My sister, <strong>Haneen Hasan Abubaker</strong>, born 2007
</div>
<div>* My sister, <strong>Lina Hasan Abubaker</strong>, born 1997
</div>
<div>* Lina’s husband, <strong>Mohammed Sabry Siam</strong>, born 1989
</div>
<div>* And now, the <strong>young daughter </strong>of my late sister whom we’re raising as our own
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>My Background and Our Struggle</strong>
</div>
<div>Before the war, I was proudly working remotely for a company outside Gaza. I supported my family and helped us stay afloat. Unfortunately, due to the escalating situation, I lost that job as well, and used up all my savings trying to keep us alive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, after nearly two years of devastation, our <strong>resources are gone. </strong>Our home is damaged, and our daily life is reduced to survival.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>Why We're Fundraising – Our Goal</strong>
</div>
<div>We’re raising <strong>€5,000</strong> to cover our most <strong>urgent needs</strong>:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>* Food &amp; clean water</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>* Shelter and hygiene supplies</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>* Basic medical necessities</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>* Warm clothing and essentials for winter</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>* Support for our niece who lost her parents</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Once we reach this goal, we will <strong>adjust it </strong>to fund <strong>our evacuation from Gaza,</strong> in hopes of building a safer future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>Why We Need You</strong>
</div>
<div>I've always been hesitant to ask for help—even from my closest friends. But I’ve reached a point where silence is no longer an option. I believe in the kindness of strangers and in the power of community, even across borders.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Even a small donation of <strong>€10 or €20</strong> can help us buy food or medicine for a day.
</div>
<div>If you can't donate, <strong>please share this story </strong>with your network. That alone could change everything for us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>The Hardest Part</strong>
</div>
<div>Leaving Gaza means leaving behind<strong> my father’s lifelong home,</strong> our memories, and the only life we’ve ever known. But staying could mean <strong>losing everything—and everyone—again.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are not giving up. We are holding onto hope.
</div>
<div>And we’re reaching out to the world, asking:
</div>
<div><strong>Please help us survive this. Help us rebuild. Help us live.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>With Heartfelt Gratitude</strong>
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for reading, for caring, for donating, or even just for sharing this page. Every act of kindness counts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With hope and gratitude,
</div>
<div><strong>Khalil Abubaker</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> <strong>Note from the Fundraiser Creator (for full transparency):</strong>
</div>
<div>My name is <strong>Laura</strong>, and I live in <strong>Austria</strong>. I’ve been a friend of Khalil’s for years and have personally witnessed the devastating impact this war has had on his family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The funds will be sent to <strong>my account</strong> and then transferred to Khalil’s family in Gaza via <strong>Western Union.</strong>
</div>
