My name is Gerarda van Dijk. I know a dear family in Gaza with whom I am in daily contact, and I deeply share in their struggles during this incredibly difficult time.

The situation there is extremely difficult. There is constant uncertainty about their safety, as well as severe shortages of food, clean water, and other basic necessities.

Through this fundraiser, I want to support these dear people, and if possible, others in their immediate surroundings, with the most essential necessities such as food, water, and basic supplies. Every form of support is received with deep gratitude.

Please also take a moment to watch this video and read Ismail’s personal story below.

My name is Ismail, and I live in Gaza with my family under extremely difficult humanitarian conditions. The war has completely changed our lives, and we have lost access to many of the basic necessities that most people take for granted.

Every day, we face severe shortages of food, clean drinking water, and other essential supplies. At the same time, prices have risen dramatically, making it increasingly difficult to meet even our most basic needs. Providing food, medicine, and other necessities for my family has become a constant struggle.

Through this fundraiser, I am reaching out to kind-hearted people who may be able to help my family and me through this difficult time. Donations will be used to provide food, clean water, clothing, medicine, and other essential supplies that can help us survive these extremely challenging circumstances.

Every contribution, no matter how small, gives us hope and helps ease some of the suffering we are experiencing. If you are unable to donate, sharing this campaign with others would also mean so much to us.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your solidarity, compassion, and support during this difficult time.

Ismail – Gaza
