<div>Hello,


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My name is Raneem Faisal a Palestinian American. I live in Menifee (California ) .With great sadness, I'm reaching out to you today for help regarding my family members.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>As of now, I have lost my two brothers after three weeks from war started .( kamal and Nour) There are six members of my extended family in Gaza, including one brother, his wife, and two daughters. Additionally, there is the wife of my martyr brother and his two-year-old daughter.

</div>


<div>My mother and my younger brother Bader went to Egypt for treatment before the war, and now they are stuck there with no income because they are considered violators in the country for exceeding the permitted stay period, which is more than 40 days. My family lost everything in this war, including our businesses and homes.

<div>During the war, my family evacuated from the north to the south. My brothers sought refuge in a wedding hall with some of my mother’s family members because we have no relatives in the south. Unfortunately, this place was targeted with several missiles, resulting in the martyrdom of my two brothers, my cousin, and some other family members who sought refuge with them. All the families sustained injuries ranging from serious to critical.

</div>


<div>As a result, I am the only hope for them to leave Gaza and responsible for all costs. Please help me collect the application fees and travel costs for 6 people.

</div>


<div>In order to facilitate my family's evacuation to Egypt, I'm setting up a GoFundMe campaign to raise $350,000. Here is the breakdown of the funds:


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>It is estimated that $5,000 will be sufficient to cover the basic needs of my family in Egypt, including their accommodation, food, and other essentials.


</div>


<div>A total of $30,000 has been allocated to cover the expenses associated with obtaining permits to leave Gaza, as well as crossing fees at Rafah, at the Egypt-Gaza border. This amount breaks down to $5,000 per adult and $2,500 per child.


</div>


<div>Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference to my family's safety. The funds raised will be used transparently and efficiently to ensure that every dollar is spent on ensuring their safety.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>My family and I are deeply grateful for your support, and I am deeply grateful for any assistance you may be able to provide during this difficult time. Please share this campaign with your friends, family, and colleagues so that we can reach our goal and provide safety for my family.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Please accept my sincere thanks for your kindness and support, as well as your willingness to stand with us in solidarity. Together, we can make a difference and help my family find safety and security.

<div>After his house was destroyed in a fire, my brother is now living in a dark area without electricity and without a roof over his head because he couldn't find a place to evacuate to.
