Here's a quick word about family:

I am aseel from Gaza. I am married and have a child. We left our home in northern Gaza after it was bombed several times. Thankfully, we survived and moved to the southern part of the strip with my husband's family. We couldn't take any of our belongings, hoping to return to our home in a few days, but it has taken until now.

We moved to the central part of the strip to stay with a relative. We managed to get some clothes with difficulty, and some relatives helped us with bedding. Then, after a short while, the bombing started again, and we moved to the south of the strip to Rafah. It was difficult to reach there due to challenging transportation and high transport costs. With the help of an organization, we managed to build a small tent that houses more than ten people. We spent a long time in the tent in Rafah, and life was not easy. It was hard to get even the most basic necessities like water and food. We had to stand in line to get some of them. Living in the tent was difficult as it was hot during the day and very cold at night, with many insects and mosquitoes.

Then, after a horrific bombing in Rafah, we moved again with our tent. This was the fourth displacement, and we headed back to the central part of the strip once more. I want to help my husband's family by providing for their needs and medicines.

Please help us to live. We used to live in peace, and we had dreams. We don't want to die in this way.

Every dollar can help us in this war.

My husband Ahmed suffers from an allergy to dust and smoke and needs medication because it is a chronic illness, but we can barely get the medicine.

My mother-in-law Hanan suffers from rheumatoid arthritis, and it is difficult to get the medicine and painkillers she uses because they are expensive and hard to find.

My father-in-law Wajih has a herniated disc and poor vision. Due to prolonged work near fire, his eyesight has deteriorated, and he needs surgery on his eye. We are waiting for the surgery appointment and need some money for that and for some medications.

I assure you that donations for essential needs, every donation, even a small one, makes a difference
