Help Iman and her family in Gaza

Dear kind souls,

My name is Iman Faisal Qeshta.18. I am communicating from the heart of Gaza, a place many of you know from the headlines, but for me, it is a home - a home shattered by unimaginable loss and devastation. On October 10, a day that will forever be etched in my memory with sadness, our house was bombed. Amid the chaos and rubble, I lost the pillars of my existence: my beloved sister and my father. They were not just a family; Rather, they were my closest friends, my support, and the core of the house.

In the wake of this tragedy, I find myself grappling with a reality I never imagined. I am the mother of a beautiful boy, whose innocence stands in stark contrast to the world into which he was born. My husband is not on our side and unable to help us. The war may stop, but for us, the consequences are an unrelenting storm. We had nowhere left to turn; The head of our family is gone, and our house is nothing but ruins.

For weeks, I moved through the remains of what had been my life, dodging death, homelessness, destruction, terrorism, massacres, and famine. Every day is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, but it's a journey I can't take alone.

In the midst of all this, I also suffered a broken leg, which added a layer of physical pain to the emotional and psychological torment. The need for medical care is urgent - not only for my broken leg, which requires regular doctor's appointments to heal, but also to ensure the overall health and well-being of my child and me.

This is a call for help, a call to the hearts and humanity of people around the world. Your support can light a candle in this sinking darkness. Funds raised through this campaign will go directly towards:

Providing a safe shelter for my child, myself and my family, ensuring that we have a roof over our heads.

Furnishing our new living space to provide a few basic things.

Buy winter gear to adapt to the weather and keep us warm during the cold months.

Covering health and medical care expenses, including treatments for my broken leg and ensuring we get medical care when needed.

Meet our basic costs of living, including food, clean water and basic necessities to rebuild our lives from the ashes.

Please, if you can, donate to our cause. Share our story with your friends, family and community. Your generosity can help mend lives torn apart by tragedy, providing a chance for a future we dare to dream of.

Thank you from my heart. Your support means the world to us and signifies a step towards healing. Together, we can rebuild, restore and revive the spirit of those who have lost everything.
