<div>My name is Mahmoud, from Gaza. I am a graduate of Al-Aqsa University – Faculty of Computers and Information Technology (IT).

<div>I launched this fundraising campaign through my friend Sarah, because I still hold onto hope the hope to remain, to live with dignity, and to rebuild our life on our land.
</div>
<div>I kindly ask for your support… even $1 can give us hope for a better future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I live with my family of six: my wife, my parents, my brother, and my sister. We used to live together in one simple home, and I had always dreamed of supporting my family through the small bakery I opened during my university years our only source of income.
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/79275797_1712947312822667_r.jpeg" width="100%" />

<div>But when the war began, we lost everything.
</div>
<div>Our family home was completely destroyed.
</div>
<div>The bakery that provided for us was also destroyed.
</div>
<div>Then we lost our last shelter my small apartment, the home where I had hoped to start a warm life with my wife.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since then, we have been living in a worn-out tent that does not protect us from the heat of summer nor the rain of winter.
</div>

<div>What breaks my heart most is that my wife is pregnant, and we will welcome our first baby in a few months… I live every day afraid that our child will be born into these harsh and unfit conditions.
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/79275797_1764365462206574_r.jpeg" width="100%" />

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Today, all I hope for is to build a simple caravan to shelter my family — something that protects us from the heat, the flooding, and offers a clean and safe place for our coming baby.
</div>
<div>But the cost of a caravan in Gaza has reached $6,000 due to scarcity of materials and soaring prices.
</div>
<div>Like this:

<div>Any amount raised beyond the cost of the caravan will be used for essential needs such as food, medical care, and basic daily necessities.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support could truly change our lives.
</div>
<div>Thank you to everyone who extends a helping hand to a family that has lost everything yet continues to hold onto hope.
