Help a Family Evacuate Gaza to Survive

Hi, my name is Meera. I currently live in Michigan, and I'm asking for your help in evading my family from Gaza. Amid the escalating conflict in Gaza, the lives of innocent civilians have reached devastatingly inhumane conditions. I have lost 80 family members from this war, and my remaining family members have been living through a nightmare – losing their homes due to the bombings and being forced to flee their hometowns with nothing but the clothes on their backs.

Like so many others in Gaza, they are locked in a desperate battle for survival, clinging to hope. They lack even the most basic human necessities - clothing, food, and clean water.

In addition to the scarcity of necessities, my family is coping with the lack of proper shelter. Currently, they are residing in a tent, an unsafe refuge for my wheelchair-bound aunt (Sohair, 36) and uncle (Ibrahim, 37), and numerous young children and their parents. My aunt Soheir is quadriplegic and can't take care of herself; she needs medical care and essential supplies that we can't afford. My uncle Ibrahim has muscular dystrophy, which causes his muscles to waste away. Because of the war, he can't walk anymore and needs costly medication. They have faced starvation and constant bombing. They have seen death in both northern and southern Gaza. These challenges are combined with the unique needs of my family members with disabilities. As they navigate these unfathomable circumstances, the need for continuous medical care and safe, stable shelter becomes more critical.

The ones in desperate need of evacuation include my wheelchair-bound aunt, my wheelchair-bound uncle, his wife and two children, and my aunt Samia and her six orphaned children– who lost their father in this war.

Evacuating my family from these horrible conditions is crucial; your support could provide a lifeline for my family, offering them the hope and assistance they so desperately need to endure these trying times. Every day is a battle, both physically and mentally. But they're not alone; with your help, we can provide the lifeline they desperately need. Together, we can make a difference, relieving those who have only known suffering.

Our goal is to raise $40,000, and every contribution will go toward helping my family through the journey to the refuge from Gaza to Egypt; no donation is too small, and no act of kindness is too insignificant.

If you cannot contribute financially, please share our story; it will make a significant difference. Your support could mean the world to us in these dark times. Thank you for your compassion and solidarity.
