Donate to provide urgent assistance to Kamal and his family

Hi, my name is Celeste. I live in Alberta, Canada. I am fundraising to help Kamal Rael and his large family survive the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Like most families in Gaza, Kamal's is struggling. Living in tents, lack of food and water, lack of resources. It is heartbreaking, and maddening that the beautiful people of Palestine are being made to suffer constant, ongoing injustices. Please take the time to read Kamal's story. You can help with either a donation, or sharing this campaign.

Thank you!

Assalamu Alaikum/Peace be upon you, 

Firstly, May Allah Bless you and your families for your kindness and for donating to the Raed Family! Today marks 574 days since the start of the war and genocide for the Raed family & all of our beloved brothers, sisters, & children in Gaza! The level of brutality that the people of Gaza have endured within these 20 months is absolutely sickening, heart-breaking and has been and continues to be televised for us and the whole world to see these atrocities. This is something that no human being should ever have to experience! For Kamal and his family they couldn't have thought that after 18 months of bombing, mass murders, starvation, mass displacement, mass kidnappings of civilians and so many more horrific war crimes that the genocide could somehow get worse but that is exactly the case that Kamal and his family are living in since March 2nd, the genocidal israel occupation has closed off the crossings and stopped allowing any and all form of aid into Gaza not a single water bottle, piece of food, medicine, medical equipment or tent has entered Gaza in 2 MONTHS and the cost of FLOUR if someone can find it is $300 and now according to the U.N GAZA has officially ran out of food causeing a Level 5 Famine‼️‼️‼️ On March 18th the occupation viciously ended the ceasefire agreement by bombing every single part of the Gaza Strip in the early hours of the night during the holy month of Ramadan. Since March 18th,  Kamal and his family face and experience daily bombings that are nonstop they happen every night and every day and the numbers of MARTYRS (May Allah Have Mercy On Them ) are increasing every single moment with the targeting of schools, displacement camps, hospitals, food distribution centers, and massacres are happening every moment and truly now anything that moves in Gaza is a target! Just within the last 2 weeks of April the Raed family had some of their relatives MARTYRED (May Allah Have Mercy on them)! That is why now more than ever the Raed Family desperately needs your help to survive these devastating and unimaginable days while they fight everyday only by the Will of God and through your life-changing donations to survive the Bombings, Massacres, Famine, Corrupt Traders, and Disease‼️‼️

Please please please any amount you can donate it doesn’t matter how big or small it can save their lives! One share can save their lives so please help the Raed family today any way you can because they need us! 

UPDATE: FEBRUARY.3, 2025

Hello everyone, I am Kamal from Gaza. I write this after much thought and hesitation. But the urgency and need to save my family is too great for me to hold on. I am deeply asking for your generous support to help me and my family evacuate.

I reach out to you with a heavy heart and a plea for urgent assistance. We are currently trapped in the war-torn Gaza Strip, facing enormous risks and hardships every day.

The conflict in Gaza has taken everything from us. My home and my family's home were destroyed in the first days of the war, leaving us homeless and displaced. We had to move from one temporary shelter to another, without any place providing us with safety or stability. The situation in Gaza has become increasingly dire, and there is no end to the violence and destruction in sight.

I used to work as a software engineer, but my work stopped because of the war. We have exhausted all our savings to buy basic necessities like food and shelter. My father worked tirelessly his whole life to build our house, and now it was reduced to rubble, along with all of our possessions and memories.

Our family of ten members, including my grandfather, grandmother, father, mother and sisters, are struggling to survive in these harsh conditions. We fear for our lives at every moment, and we know that staying in Gaza is not an option if we want to ensure our safety and rebuild our shattered lives.

We urgently need to leave Gaza for our safety and well-being. The funds raised will be used for transportation, documentation and other expenses related to crossing the Egyptian border. We estimate that we need $5,000 for each family member, for a total of $50,000 for our entire family.

Donating is the best way to support me and my family at this time, please donate generously and share widely.

The road ahead will be difficult and challenging, but we know that the community will be by our side every step of the way.

Any amount you can give helps. Thank you very much from the bottom of our hearts.
