Help Marah's Family Evacuate Gaza

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Yamini, I'm from the United States, and I am trying to help Marah and her family evacuate Gaza.

Marah Atallah, her brothers (Ibrahim, 18, and Dahoud, 14), her mother and her little sister (Farida, pictured above, only 9 years old) are struggling right now through abysmal living conditions in bombarded Gaza. Their goal is to escape, to travel to Egypt or wherever it is safe, to try and survive. For that they are looking to raise 25000 dollars to provide food, water, and shelter on their way.

Any money received through this campaign will go to me, and I will send it via paypal to Marah so she and her family can have access to the funds. In order to make sure they are able to receive the full amount that they need, the target of this gofundme has an additional 2k, to cover the 30 cents per transaction fee for an estimated 5-10 dollar average donation plus the 2.9% cut of proceeds taken by the platform. Any money received in excess of the 25k goal will still go to Marah and her family, this is only to ensure that fees are not being taken out of what they will have access to.

I met Marah through a friend of mine, who is trying to help another young family in a similar struggle right now. we have spoken online and I am doing my best to make sure that her words and hopes are coming across.

When I asked her if there is anything she would like to say to the people accessing this campaign, she sent me this:

"I only hope that they will help me and my family survive this genocide and provide food and drink for my family only, nothing more."

Please, if it is at all possible for you, help us help these people escape so they can live peacefully now.
