<div>With much sadness and even more pain, today I send you an urgent appeal on behalf of my grieving family to revive a small part of the hope we have lost due to this unjust and harsh war. I send my plea to you from the heart of Gaza, while I am in the depths of my depression and pain after losing everything: our home, our security, and many dreams and aspirations.

<div>About me: I am Mahmoud , 31 years old,  I love life. I a pharmacist  when this harsh war came and destroyed everything . Before the war, I was suffering from a severe spinal injury and underwent surgery, but it was not performed properly, affecting the sensory and motor functions in my right foot. I was attending physical therapy sessions to alleviate the intense pain that almost killed me. However, this war worsened my injury significantly due to carrying water jerrycans for long distances to provide drinking water for me and my family and carrying many heavy objects. As a result of carrying more than my spine could bear, today the injury has worsened, the pain has increased, and I must travel to Egypt for surgery to address this issue. About my family: 
</div>
<div>We are a family of 6 males and 4 females. My father used to work inside the occupied territories despite his old age, he was over sixty years old, but he was the provider for this large family, which was our source of livelihood. After the events of October 7th, he was arrested by the Israeli police and detained in army camps, and they took all his belongings, his ID, and his phone. They subjected him to the severest forms of torture and starvation, losing more than half of his weight. We suffered greatly because we no longer knew anything about him while we were in fear during the war and under the weight of the destructive missiles. However, he was released after more than a month of detention and returned to us here in Gaza to suffer greater and deeper suffering. I can't look my father in the face after all he has suffered, and I can't offer him any help.

</div>
<div>After our neighbors' house was bombed, our house was partially destroyed, and life became much worse after we lost everything: the house, the source of livelihood, education, all the essentials of life.
</div>
<div>Donation goal: Our goal is to provide financial support to me and my family to rebuild our lives and our home and to secure the basic needs for all members of our family, especially children and women. How you can help: We need your support to achieve this goal. You can help in any way you find appropriate, as every effort has a real impact and will make a big difference in our lives and the suffering we are going through. Your support goes beyond financial aid; it is a lifeline that helps us regain our sense of normalcy in these difficult times. I am truly grateful for your time, attention, and support. Your generosity will always have a lasting impact on our lives, helping us turn the page towards a brighter and more optimistic chapter. Thank you for being part of this journey. With sincere appreciation, Mahmoud Alzanati
