Help my family to evacuate Gaza

Donation protected
Hello,

My name is Aisha Aburass. I am German with Arab roots. I have a Diplom in journalism and I work for a company that specializes in air pollution control. A mother of three children.
I have lived in a war for a while so I know how it feels. 

With great sadness and humility. I am doing this GoFundMe to help raise money for my family in-law so they can evacuate the Gaza Strip. 

The family consists of 14 people. They are Palestinian living in the Gaza Strip. The Father is Yahya Aburass he is 53 years old and married to Anaam Aburass (50). They are the parent of 2 daughters and 3 sons and a Grandparents of 5 grandchildren.

The Father Yahya Aburass is a professional furniture maker(wood worker) and the mother is a stay at home wife. Their eldest son is Ashraf Aburass. He is 28 years old and has a bachelor of economics he is married to Heba Alsousi (27). She is an architect. They both have 2 kids, a son(3) and a daughter (6 months). The first daughter Dana is 26 and is also an architect. She has 3 kids, son(7) and two daughters (2 & 5). Their son Mohammed is 23 years old and is a professional accountant. Their youngest son Abdullah is 26 years old and is a professional lawyer.Their youngest daughter is Malak. She is only 16 years old and still in school.

The Father has been diagnosed with severe Bladder cancer. And needs urgent medical care and needs to get an operation. Their daughter in-law Heba can’t find any milk or diapers for her 6 months old daughter. She can’t breastfeed her daughter because her milk dried up because of the trauma she got. Besides that they lack of access to clean drinkable water and food which has caused many diseases. 

I don’t think you as a human can image living for days without water or even food while seeing your family starving to be fed but you sadly can’t help them. Since everything begun till this day they have lost many beloved ones and family members.  They became homeless. They lost their houses, jobs, businesses, their olive pressing mills, their carpentry shop,their farms, their car and all of which provided their livelihood, have been destroyed, they lost every income resources.

This is their last and only hope to help them leave Gaza. Please help them to collect the application fees and travel costs for 14 people. To cover these costs, I am humbly reaching out to you for assistance. It is estimated that the evacuation from Gaza to Egypt will cost $140,000 in total. The amount is for the entire family of 14 individuals, around $10,000 per person. Although I'm not sure if I will be able to collect this fundraising, I will start with 60,000 Euros from the total. When they arrive in Cairo, they will be responsible for covering the costs of living for two families for a period of one year until they can figure out what their next step is. During this time, they will need to pay for the cost of rent, living, health coverage, and basic necessities, food, utilities, and healthcare. The cost of living in Cairo for a year is estimated to be approximately US$24,000. Monthly expenses for each family, consisting of two families, are estimated to be around US$1,000. Additional expenses for cancer treatment. The father is not listed on the cancer patient list, and that means he must cover all of the associated costs as well. The estimated cost of treatment and surgery outside the Gaza Strip is estimated at approximately US$40,000. This amount includes fees for medical procedures, medications, and other associated expenses.

My family is deeply grateful for your support, and I am deeply grateful for any assistance you may be able to provide during this difficult time. Please share this campaign with your friends, family, and colleagues. And we are grateful for any amount of donation. And I hope no human be in the same situation that they have been in since months.
