My name is Haneen from Oakland, CA and I'm fundraising for my friend Maisara and her 5 children to evacuate from Rafah to Egypt to save their lives. They've been living in a tent for the past 4 months and were told to evacuate with no place to go.

Your donation will help save the lives of 6 year-old Bisan, 13 year-old Mohamad, 15 year-old Sarah, 17 year-old Hamza, 19 year-old Marwa and their mother Maisara. Time is of the essence as there's active bombing and a ground invasion started in Rafah. When I asked Maisara what they're going to do about the invasion she said "there's nowhere to go, there's nothing to do."

The funds will be sent to a family member to be paid to an Egyptian travel company Ya Hala to facilitate their evacuation. The money will be used to pay the fees for each person and help them get settled in Egypt as they haven't had a source of income since the start of the war.
