Hello, my name is Alicia and I live in Pennsylvania. I am creating this GoFundMe to raise money for a dear friend, Ibrahim and his family. Below is Ibrahim Al-Mashal's story.

I am currently living in Gaza with my family, wife Israa, and two children, Khalil (6) and Toulin (4). We are going through very difficult circumstances. Life here is full of challenges, and each day brings struggles just to meet the most basic needs. I started this campaign hoping to receive your support to help us survive and live with dignity in these harsh conditions. Every donation, no matter how small, means so much to me and my family and gives us a sense of hope amidst all these difficulties.

Ibrahim Al-Mashal recently suffered a pelvic injury due to occupation, which is painful and makes it harder for him to get out there and find food for his family. Please help this family; they are losing so much weight from lack of food as you will see in photos. Ibrahim is a devoted husband and father, so together let's help this man out. Funds will be sent directly to him via Western Union or PayPal. We are trying to figure this out as it is hard since the banks are controlled.
