Help Doaa and Kids Build a New Life

Hello, I am Doaa Abu Amer, and I am a Palestinian mother of two young girls, one and a half years old and eight months old, or better to say, a Palestinian woman who is still alive and lives in the Gaza Strip. With a heavy heart, I humbly ask for your help and support in raising funds to escape death with my young children and restore a part of what my life was before. I decided to send this massage after much thought and hesitation. When I realized that there was no other option for me to support my family.

On a dark night in mid-November, a sudden bomb fell on our neighborhood, where I live with my family and relatives, and in an instant, several buildings were completely destroyed. My house was severely damaged. As the war continued and under constant bombardment, we were ordered to evacuate, and all the way to the city of Rafah in southern Gaza, we could see tanks shelling, and warning shots fired by the IDF, it was truly terrifying.

We lost everything: our home, our education, ourselves and our future. I hope you will help us, and I am confident that you will stand by my side to restore what we lost and create a new life and future abroad for me and my young children. I was living in the south of the Gaza Strip in Rafah, after we had to leave our home from the Gaza Strip and the occupation moved away from it. We became homeless and live in tents without electricity or clean water. We taste all kinds of torment, from the fear of death, hunger, and the heat of the sun in the tents. My young children suffer daily from malnutrition, diseases, and prolonged pain due to polluted water and unhealthy food. We hope that you will help us get rid of this pain and we can travel abroad so that my children can live in safety, peace and stability like any child in this world and we live as long as we have the basic rights to meet our needs. Basic and continue building our dreams, our future and our studies. I hope you understand and help me. I am confident that you will stand by my side to restore what we lost and create a new life and future abroad.
