Help Asmaa and Amer's family survive in Gaza

Donation protected
My name is Taylor, I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma and I am raising funds for my friend Asmaa, her husband Amer, and their children who, live in Gaza. They have eight beautiful children, four boys and four girls, from the ages of 2-19. They have been living a complete nightmare for the past year and a half. Their home was seriously damaged and their restaurant destroyed, leaving them with no way to make money. They have been displaced multiple times and must live in fear of constant air strikes, hunger, and disease.

Currently, prices for food are very high, they face starvation daily and two of their children have serious medical problems that require medication and treatment. They desperately need money for food, medicine, and basic necessities. 100% of the money raised from this fundraiser will go to help them obtain these things and survive in the extremely difficult situation they are in. Your donations can help save their lives and ensure these children can have the happy future they deserve.

Here is more information from Asmaa and Amer about their children...

I have a daughter, her name is Alia, she is 19 years old. Last year she was studying in the first year of university, and now the school year has ended and she has not completed her education, even though she is one of the first students, but this war has lost everything.



My daughter, Abeer, is 18 years old. She was going to finish her educational stages this year, but because of the war, she did not complete her educational journey, and now she only sits to cook food on wood and make bread, instead of continuing and getting what she wishes and dreams of.


My eldest son, his name is Muhammad, he is 16 years old. He was a professional football player and has a future in education and football. He played football when he was 6 years old, but what happened after all this fatigue and the dream that he strived so hard to achieve, everything was lost and the stadium was destroyed. It was before he traveled to become a player. Professional as he always dreamed, I cannot do anything. He now lights a fire to cook or stands in line to get water, and this is his life now.


My son Ali, 14 years old, has a heart condition and Mediterranean fever. We were following up with him inside the hospital and providing him with treatment and medical and nutritional care, but now the situation is catastrophic. I cannot provide treatment or appropriate food for him. He was injured in the war with hepatitis and dehydration due to the lack of food, medicine, and healthy drinking water, and here it is. I stand unable to do anything because I cannot provide what I must provide for my son to live in good health.


My daughter, Susan, is 12 years old. She was one of the outstanding and successful people in her academic life. She was brave and not afraid of anything, but now everything has stopped, no education or anything. She is afraid when she hears the sound of bombing and flying, and she strives with us to collect firewood and get a little food.


My daughter, Amani, is an outstanding and polite student. She previously organized activities with her school, including folklore, popular songs, and other things, but now nothing has stopped everything from education, and the child is terrified every moment because of the sound of bombing and aircraft.


My son Ahmed was supposed to enter school next year, but we were not even able to enter kindergarten. My son hoped to reach the school stage so that he could grow up, learn, and become a doctor, but nothing happened. We hope that the war will end so that life can return, even though it is difficult, after it destroyed all the schools and universities.


My child, a one-and-a-half year old, is sick and has a collapsed right lung. His health condition is unstable. He is entering a stage of lack of oxygen and is always in need of medical care. I am trying hard to preserve him, care for him, and take care of him due to the severe lack of treatment."
