Help Abdullah Feed His Family and Survive Extreme Hardship
Abdullah Zakaria is living in unimaginable conditions. He has lost everything—his home, his stability, and now his health. On top of a life-threatening medical crisis, he is also facing severe food shortages while caring for his sick mother and young relatives. He is in desperate need of help to feed his family and stay alive.

My name is Jessica, writing from Arizona with an urgent plea. Abdullah is one of the kindest people I’ve met—compassionate, resilient, and selfless. But right now, he and his family, including 5 small children, and cat are struggling to survive. There is no access to proper resources, and prices for basic food have skyrocketed:

With the border sealed for over 60 days, prices have exploded. A single bag of flour now costs $320—just enough to last one week. To meet the bare minimum for survival, Abdullah’s family needs $1,240 per week:

*$320 – flour
* $350 – vegetables
*$200 – clean water
* $300 – medical treatment for Abdullah’s epilepsy and his mother’s high blood pressure (to prevent blindness)
* $70 – food and care for his beloved cat

And that’s not including the 30% in transfer and withdrawal fees Abdullah must pay to access any donation.

His family is exhausted, hungry, and in crisis. They don’t have enough to meet their weekly needs.

Current Market Prices:
• 1 bag of flour: $320
• Tomatoes: $10 per kg
• Cucumbers: $10 per kg
• Potatoes: $22 per kg
• Eggplant: $15 per kg
• Zucchini: $20 per kg
• Lemon: $30 per kg
• No fruits or meat are currently available

There’s no affordable food. No public aid. Abdullah is barely holding on.

His Daily Struggle
• No access to food: Prices are brutally high, and markets are nearly empty. He can't feed his family.
• Medical emergencies with no treatment: Abdullah suffers from epilepsy and a painful bone disease called Multiple Hereditary Exostoses (MHE). Without epilepsy medication, his seizures are worsening.
• Caring for others while suffering himself: Despite his own declining health, he’s the only one left to support his family.

How You Can Help
Abdullah is exhausted. He is starving. He is trying to survive one day at a time—but he cannot do it alone. Your donation could help him:
• Afford basic food to feed himself and his family
• Access life-saving medication
• Get internet so he can continue advocating for his survival

Every single dollar makes a difference. Every share could reach someone who’s able to help. Abdullah doesn’t have time. He needs us now.

Abdullah’s dream is simple yet profound: to survive this crisis and one day complete his college education to become a medical doctor. His greatest passion is helping others, and he hopes to dedicate his life to healing those in need.

Please, if you’re able, donate today.
Thank you for your compassion and support.
