</div>
<div>On December 22nd, 2023, Canada unveiled a transformative immigration measure aimed at aiding Canadians and Permanent Residents with family members in Gaza. As a proud Permanent Resident on the path to Canadian citizenship, I am undertaking the responsibility of bringing my extended family to Canada. However, this endeavor comes with an immense financial burden, and I am reaching out to you for your invaluable support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Canadian government, while offering a lifeline through this program, does not provide financial assistance, placing an overwhelming fiscal responsibility on individuals like myself. Calculating the first-year expenses has highlighted the substantial financial commitment required, and I am confident that, with your support, I can share this burden and pave the way for a hopeful future for my family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Urgency of the Mission:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The primary motivation behind bringing my family from Gaza to Canada stems from the devastating circumstances they face. They have lost everything – their home, farm, and means of livelihood. Forced to flee with only the clothes on their backs, Gaza has become an unlivable place. My family members, including parents, siblings, and married sisters with their families – a total of 20 individuals – are scheduled to arrive in Canada between May to July 2024 I am not sure what is the Canadian government timeline is yet.

<div><strong>How Your Donation Will Make a Difference:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>1) Accommodation in Cairo:</em></strong> During the biometrics process and visa waiting period (2-3 months).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>2) Flight Tickets to Canada:</em></strong> Ensuring a safe journey for our family members from Cairo to Canada for all members.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>3) House Rental:</em></strong> Providing a stable and secure living environment for around 6 months until they are able to make there own way.

</div>
<div><strong><em>4) Living Expenses:</em></strong><em> </em>Covering monthly essentials such as groceries, utilities, transportation, and basic necessities.
</div>
<div>Clothing, Shoes, and Electronics: Rebuilding their lives with the essentials. I'm thinking of having to cover there expenses from 6 months to 1 year. They need a lot of time to start being able to work and asses there educational degrees and careers certificates.
