<div>My name is Ahmed, and I have been living in Belgium as a refugee since 2023. I am writing to share the heartbreaking situation facing my brother in Gaza. The ongoing war has completely destroyed his home, leaving him and his children homeless. In their desperation, they have been forced to live in a makeshift nylon tent that offers little protection from the harsh elements. Living in a nylon tent is extremely difficult. My brother Obaida and his children (Raed - Malek) including the baby Malek who was born during the war, struggle daily with the lack of privacy, safety and basic necessities of life such as clean water, food and healthcare. The tent provides insufficient shelter from the scorching summer heat and cold nights, making it almost impossible for the children to sleep or study properly.
</div>
<div>We are doing our best to build a more efficient and safe tent. We need durable materials to ensure the tent is stable and protected, and proper covers to make it more livable. However, we desperately need your support to collect these essential items. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donations can make a huge difference in our lives. Any amount or material you can provide will help us provide a safer temporary shelter for my brother and his children until they can rebuild their home. Your support can protect them from the intense heat and rain, and give them a place where they can feel safe, even if only temporarily. 
</div>

</div>
<div>Currently, sending money to Gaza via Western Union or MoneyGram is suspended. The money will be sent through relatives and acquaintances. I will be documenting the delivery. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The situation in Gaza is dire, and any help you can provide will be a lifeline for my family. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are counting on your kindness and compassion to help improve their lives during these difficult times. Your help means a lot to us and will be a crucial step towards providing stability and security for my brother and his children, especially the newborn. We hope this message finds you and that you find it in your hearts to support us during this difficult time.
</div>

</div>
<div>We thank you for any support you can offer. We are grateful for your generosity and hope that with your help we can provide a better life for my brother and his family.
