From a Dream Home to a Tent: A Mother’s Plea from Gaza

Hello,

My name is Inas, and I am a mother of two young children — the oldest is not even three years old. We had a simple dream: to build a small home where we could feel safe and create a future for our children. We began building that dream in Rafah.

But the war came before our joy.

Before the walls of our house were even complete, it was destroyed by bombing. We were forced to flee and now live in a tent — no roof to shield my little ones from the heat or cold, and no access to the basic necessities of a dignified life.

I hesitated to ask for help before, as I didn’t have a bank account, and because sometimes dignity keeps us silent… but today, the need is stronger than silence.

I’m reaching out now — as a mother — who only dreams of rebuilding what was lost. Not just bricks and walls, but a sense of safety, a dignified life, and a future for my children.

Every bit of help, no matter how small, means the world to us.

Please, help us rebuild our home, restore hope, and protect a childhood that is being stolen day by day by war.

From Gaza… from the heart of pain… we send you our love, our prayers, and our deepest thanks.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
