<div><strong>Let's help Abed family so they can help others:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Abed family is a resilient and highly educated family, which includes an Arabic teacher, a software engineer, an Arabic-English translator, a physiotherapist, and a future doctor. Let's help them evacuate and regain stability, so they can help others!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This fundraiser is organised by Marika, a family friend, based in Austria. Our first priority was to collect funds for Mamdouh's medical studies in Egypt. Since his family could not sponsor his education any more, he risks losing his student status and eviction.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Before the War:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Naseem, the father, ran a successful shop in Khan Younis, which allowed him to support his family. Reem, the mother, a trained Arabic teacher who imparted her love for learning to her children. Their children were thriving academically, with Nahariya and Lubana recently graduating with degrees in Information Engineering and English Translation, respectively. Mohammed was pursuing his passion for computer science and multimedia at Al-Azhar University, while Mamdouh got accepted to study medicine in Egypt and is on his way to becoming a doctor. Luqman and Asim attended school, and Bayna attended kindergarten.
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Current Situation:</strong>
</div>
<div>The family lost their home, the shop was looted and bombarded, and they had to evacuate multiple times from Khan Younis to Rafah and back to Al Mawasi. They currently live in a tent in Al Mawasi near Khan Younis - apart from Mamdouh who is in Egypt alone, risking the dismissal from his university due to overdue tuition fees.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the end of June, Nahariya became a mother to a beautiful baby boy, Aziz. The family faces many hardships with no income or stable place to call home. Despite these challenges, they remain hopeful and resilient. They stick together and hope for a better future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We, kind strangers, are their hope.
</div>

<div><strong>Meet the Abed Family</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Naseem (50 years old)</strong>, the father, used to run a shop in Khan Younis, which allowed him to support his family. Unfortunately, there is nothing left from this shop or their home. He has health issues like high blood pressure, a weak heart, and rheumatism. Despite his struggles, he still hopes for a better future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Reem Ahmed (43 years old) </strong>Reem, the mother, is a trained Arabic teacher, supporting her husband and children through these tough times.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Nahariya (23 years old) </strong>graduated with a degree in Software Engineering and just became a mother to baby Aziz. Her husband is a physiotherapist, and together they face many challenges of parenthood in a war zone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81366633_1720781313502312_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Lobana (22 years old)</strong> has completed her bachelor degree in English Translation and wants to continue with a master. She would love to become a legal or a tourist translator.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Mohammed (20 years old) </strong>completed his first year in Computer Science, specialising in Multimedia, at Al-Azhar University. His university was destroyed, and the war stopped his education, but he still hopes to continue his bachelor degree at a university abroad.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Mamdouh (19 years old)</strong>, who got a high school grade of 94.4, is studying medicine at Kafr El-Sheikh University in Egypt. As the only family member in safety, he tries to support his family in Gaza to the best of his abilities. Your kind donation will help him continue his medical studies so he can become a doctor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81366633_1720781324845543_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Luqman (16 years old)</strong> should be in the 10th grade. <strong>Asim (14 years old)</strong> should be in the 7th grade. <strong>Bayna (4 years old)</strong> should be in kindergarten. However, there are no schools or kindergartens anymore. As children, they are the most fragile to what is going on, they miss learning and playing with other kids.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Aziz (2 weeks old)</strong>, the newborn, is a symbol of hope. Your support will ensure he has milk and diapers for a healthy growth in the upcoming weeks.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our first immediate goal is to raise €3000 until the end of September - due to the approaching deadline for the university fees.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our goal:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here’s how your kind donations will be used:
</div>
<ul>
<li>€1,000 for baby Aziz’s immediate and urgent needs like milk and diapers.
</li>
<li>€6,000 to cover the next year’s university fees and accommodation for Mamdouh, who is studying to become a doctor in Egypt.
</li>
<li>€10,000 to help sustain various family needs in the upcoming months.
</li>
<li>€80,000 to help the family either evacuate abroad or rebuild their home as soon as possible, depending on how the situation develops.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since Mamdouh is in Egypt, he will be the main recipient of our collections, and be responsible for distributing the funds to his family and organising their evacuation at the first possibility.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How to Help:</strong>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Your donation, no matter how small, makes a big difference in making this fundraiser a success. Please donate even a small amount if you can.
</li>
<li>Sharing is extremely important. If you cannot donate but motivate two of your friends to donate $5 each, we are already $10 closer to our goal thanks to your actions.
</li>
<li>If you know any other ways to help (refugee programs, university transfers, or available scholarships, especially for Mamdouh, Mohammed and Lobana), please reach out.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
</div>
