Emergency Fund for a Family and a Baby Escape War
Donation protected
Hello, pure human being. Your arrival here means that you are interested in my message. I hope you will give me some time to read this story.
I am Anwar Al-Turk, a Palestinian-Canadian. I created this fundraising campaign in the hope of helping my family in Gaza. I have my cousin, Massara Al-Turk, her husband Ghassan, and their children, Rehab, 6 years old, Reem, 4 years old, and Yamen, who was born in the war in May 2024. This family lives in very difficult circumstances after their displacement several times.Their house was completely destroyed
Before:
After:
After being warned to evacuate, this family left their house and moved to their grandfather’s house.
After staying at their grandfather’s house for 3 days, the danger approached them very close, so they left the house to their friend’s house and then to another place until they ended up in the Al-Zawaida area, south of Wadi Gaza, in a tent that does not exceed 9 square meters, of course, in a place that does not have any of the necessities of life.
where they are living now:
This family suffers from all the problems of life: no water, no electricity, no hygiene, no clean food, no life that a person can live... they cannot meet the basic needs of their two daughters due to the lack of resources and the insane rise in prices due to the deadly siege, as well as not meeting their infant’s needs for milk, diapers, etc., and the inability to provide a clean, healthy environment for their child.
Since October 2023, they have been living inside a small tent, sleeping on the ground. They live in fear and terror, thinking that at any moment the death shell will fall on them. They live in an environment with their three children full of insects, epidemics, skin diseases, psychological and intestinal diseases, and everything you can think of in terms of pollution. They live from the lack of death, waiting for death. Every moment, I hope that you consider this family as your family and your children and do what is necessary to help them and spread their message as quickly as possible, as the amount is achievable. Here's how your donation will be used for this family:
We are seeking to raise 30,000 Canadian dollars, equivalent to $22,000 US dollars, to ensure the stability and safety of this small family and for their children to live like the children of the world.
An amount of 17,500 US dollars will be allocated to pay for travel arrangements and crossing the border towards Egypt, and this is the amount required for each person:
Ghassan $5000
Masara $5000
Rehab $2500
Reem $2500
Yamen $2500
$2,000 will be allocated to rent a small apartment in which to live in safety and stability After the suffering they experienced in the tent and to rebuild their mental health and life.
After deducting the GoFundme fees and transfer fees, the remainder of the donations will be used to cover their expenses, including accommodation and purchasing some of their daily necessities.
Your donation will provide us with immediate relief and give us a new beginning, rebuild this devastated family psychologically, materially, and emotionally, and replant the seeds of life again in their exhausted bodies from the devastating war.
Thank you for the time you gave me to read my story and my message to the world. I hope you spread my message and do what you can to help me. Imagine that it is your family and your children and do what you can to save them from this terrifying nightmare and devastating war.
Do what you can
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
