My name is Hiba, I am trying to raise money to help myself and my two children, Zain and Mohammed, find a safer future away from the bombs and destruction in Gaza. 
 
Zain, 8, is one of the lucky children in Gaza. Early in the war he ended up in hospital for shock from the constant bombing in Khan Younis. He later contracted suspected hepatitis A from drinking contaminated water. That’s how it is in Gaza for children. 
 
The lucky ones are the ones who are traumatized by the effects of the bombing, and sickened by the dirty water, and not maimed or killed. My two children, Zain and his older brother, live in southern Gaza, in the supposed safe zone of Khan Younis. Our lives were filled with joy, purpose and balance between home and family responsibilities. But everything changed on the fateful morning of October 7th when we suddenly woke up to the worst disaster imaginable. Our lives were shattered by explosions, heavy shelling, the use of internationally banned white phosphorus and the atrocities committed against humanity. It was as if we were still frozen in time, unable to comprehend the nightmare that happened that day. Our jobs have disappeared and we are in huge debts due to the rising cost of living, the tragedy and the lack of income. Our lives are in constant danger of being wiped out by the indiscriminate shelling we are now exposed to every day. Meanwhile, we are scrambling for food, queuing for water, queuing for everything. Everything in Gaza is now very expensive. Eggs are 2 euros each, a bag of flour is 150 euros, a one-kilo bag of rice is 10 euros. The only meat that is safe to eat is lamb because you can see it being slaughtered! 1 kg costs 30 euros. Where the other meat comes from, only God knows! 
 
Now, after 550 days of unimaginable suffering, we are still in southern Gaza suffering from hunger, polluted water, fear and the absence of normal life.
