<div>My name is Al. I am based in Melbourne, Australia. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I am raising funds for my friend Mazen Sami Abu Raida (as well as his siblings &amp; parents, including the 25-year-old Dr. Mohanned Sami Abu Raida), a 16-year-old boy in Palestine, living under seige and experiencing life in a war zone. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>He reached out to me over social media asking for help after seeing my interactions with public posts relating to Palestine and the siege of Gaza. I have spoken with him over video call &amp; he has sent me videos &amp; photos to verify his identity and current living situation, as well as his access to the PayPal account I will be making the deposits to.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He has the limited assistance from his uncle Dr. Waseem Fathi (his mother’s brother) currently located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia who is also working to heal the injured, wounded and sick as a result of this conflict. I have also been in touch with Waseem to verify the situation.
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>His family’s home has been destoyed; they have nothing. He and his family require medical care and safety; they currently all have jaundice, his father is very unwell &amp; Mazen himself is recovering from a shrapnel injury of his hand. The situation is dire. He needs funds to evacuate as soon as the Rafah border opens or sooner via medical evacuation, and for the ongoing medical treatment he will require.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please give as much as you can.
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>And please reach out to my page to request verification if you feel necessary, to see our ongoing campaigning efforts on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C8V0CpqSD7q/?igsh=MXFqbjVuNGJnY3JjMw==" title="">Instagram</a> &amp; <a href="https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSYffHJnJ/" title="">TikTok</a> via <a href="https://www.instagram.com/galpalal4justice?igsh=MWxxbGdjdjhrbzM3dQ%3D%3D&amp;utm_source=qr" title="">@galpalal4justice</a> and to learn more about Mazen and his family. Please also reach out to me via Signal (<a href="https://signal.me/#eu/t_lhiz-kASc9oAFKGigtPBmOfOVgWHNP_W7r9dQz2GPcebM_1IZOYp0L-fyUMoJ9" title="">@galpalal4justice.44</a>) if you wish to seek further verification or hope to join the campaigning efforts more directly. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Rest assured, I have done my due diligence to ensure these funds will be received by Mazen and his family directly.
