Hi dear human, Thanks for stopping by.
My name is Mohamed Omar, I live in the United States and I have created this account on behalf of my cousin Mohammad Ayoub, Who is currently suffering with his family an imminent threat to their lives every day in Gaza. The reason I created the account on his behalf is that he has no bank account GoFundMe can approve at this time.
The following is Mohammad Ayoub’s message and family’s pictures:
أهلاً بكم أصدقائي وداعمي محمد ايوب وعائلته. لقد تم وقف إطلاق النار الآن،وفي فترة الحرب فقد عمله ويحتاج محمد ايوب إلى العمل على استخراج جوازات سفر لاطفاله وأمه وزوجته للسفر خارج غزة. نحن لسنا متأكدين من تكلفة المعابر، لكنه لا يزال بحاجة إلى دعم والدته في العلاج خارج غزة لانها تعاني من شلل نصفي، ودفع الإيجار وشراء الطعام للعائلة. أنا ممتن جدًا لكم جميعًا على مساهماتكم في عائلة محمد ايوب وحياتهم. أنتم حقًا نعمة. يرجى الاستمرار في دعم محمد ايوب وعائلته ويرجى مشاركة أصدقائكم وزملائكم. شكرًا لكم مرة أخرى
“Ayoub, a 19-year-old young man, was supposed to start his first year of university this year, but the war that swept through his region halted his educational journey. He couldn't complete his high school exams like his peers, which disappointed him deeply. Instead of giving up, he decided to use his time differently, planning to retake his exams immediately.
Ayoub hasn’t given up on his dream of studying engineering and is working on improving himself through free online courses. Despite the difficult circumstances, he lives with anger over the loss of a normal life and sorrow over missed opportunities, but he clings to hope, believing that perseverance is his only path to achieving his goals.
Salam, a girl born in 2007, was supposed to be in her final year of high school, but now finds herself waiting for the war to end, which has prevented her from continuing her studies. She dreams of completing high school like other students and joining a college of interior design. For now, she makes use of her time by following online lessons whenever circumstances permit.
Despite the challenges and anxiety about the situation, Salam refuses to give up. She sees success in her exams as a step toward achieving her dream and building a better future, a hope that helps her endure these difficult times.
Sama (15) and Ahmed (14) are siblings close in age, both studying in middle school, sharing the hope that the war will end soon so they can return to school and their normal lives. Both feel as though life is on pause amidst the war.
As for Moataz, he was born on July 7, 2014, the first day of the war. His entire childhood has been filled with the sounds of bombings and fear, but despite everything, he has excelled in his studies, always ranking first in his class. He holds onto hope that one day he will be able to continue his education without interruptions. Moataz is passionate about learning and reads any books he can find, aspiring to become “something great” that will change his reality.
In these difficult circumstances, the three siblings live between fear and hope. Despite the harshness of the war that has deprived them of a normal childhood, they find solace in their dreams. Ahmed and Sama’s hope to return to school and Moataz continued academic success are not just wishes but dreams they hold onto as lifelines, believing that tomorrow might bring them a new chance for a better life.
Aboud, a five-year-old boy, was happy during his first month in kindergarten, discovering a world full of colors and friends. But the war turned his life upside down, and he was deeply saddened after losing several of his friends who were martyred.
Aboud is no longer the cheerful child he once was; his laughter has faded, and he has become more withdrawn. He fell ill during the war but couldn’t receive proper treatment due to a lack of money and the high cost of medicines.
I am Mohammed Ayoub, 41 years old. I used to work at a plastic factory, but the war caused me to lose my job, which was the only source of income I relied on to support my family. Although my salary was small and insufficient to cover all our needs, losing it has added financial burdens, especially with my mother's medical expenses and my children's education.
My wife doesn’t work, making the situation even harder. I need your support, even if it's just a small amount. Your assistance will make a big difference in our lives, helping me get through this crisis and take care of my family.
Grandmother Adeeba, who is 78 years old, suffers from several illnesses, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and slipped discs in her lower back, which has left her wheelchair-bound. With the worsening conditions of the war, it has become extremely difficult to find the necessary medicines and treatments for her, causing her health to deteriorate further.
Adeeba requires special care, including adult diapers and medications, which cost around $200 a month. In these tough times, securing these essentials presents a significant challenge for her family, increasing their concerns for her health and well-being.
