Helping Rabhi Gabr's family escape the war

A Father's Plea: Survival Amid the Gaza Crisis

The Life We Once Knew

My name is Rabhi Jaber, a father of seven children: Salah (21), Dima (18), Malak (14), Saji (12), Islam (10), and two others. Our lives in Gaza were once peaceful, marked by a stable home and the joy of my children’s laughter. But everything changed with the devastating escalation of the Gaza conflict in 2023. What was once a life of hope has become a struggle for survival.

The Day Our World Fell Apart

On October 7, our home was reduced to rubble in the airstrikes on Gaza. In an instant, our dreams and everything we held dear vanished. My children, once thriving in school, now face a grim reality devoid of education and security. We fled south to Rafah, seeking refuge in an overcrowded school. Hunger and despair became our daily companions as the humanitarian corridors remained closed. The loss of our home is a wound that will never heal, made worse by the absence of international aid to civilians in Gaza.

A Fragile Existence in Mawasi Khan Younis

Now displaced to Mawasi Khan Younis, we live in unbearable conditions. Our shelter is a tattered tent, exposed to the biting cold and the constant threat of insects. I am an amputee, sick, and struggling to care for my family in a place with no clean water, no electricity, and no hope. My children’s dreams are slipping away; my eldest, Bakr, should be entering high school this year, but the dire circumstances make this seem impossible.

Winter's Shadow and Our Dire Need

Winter looms, bringing with it the terrifying prospect of floods and freezing nights. We lack proper clothing, food, and medical supplies. My children face the cold nights with nothing but thin blankets, and our health deteriorates as Gaza’s hospitals remain overwhelmed. I have exhausted every means to protect my family, but our resources are depleted. We urgently need help to survive the harsh winter and escape this nightmare.

A Hope for Escape and Rebuilding

My dream is to secure a future for my children beyond the horrors of this war. We hope to raise $35,000 to escape to Egypt, where we can rebuild our lives and provide the basics: warmth, education, and stability. The journey requires $5,000 per person—a seemingly insurmountable sum. Your generosity can turn this dream into a reality, giving my children a chance to grow up free from fear and suffering.

Your Support Can Change Our Lives

Every donation brings us one step closer to survival. Your kindness could provide my family with shelter, food, and a chance to rebuild. The suffering of displaced families in Gaza is immense, but with your support, we can find hope amid despair. Please consider donating to our campaign. Together, we can bring light to the darkest of times.

A Final Call for Compassion

As winter approaches, our need becomes more urgent. I implore you to open your hearts and extend a hand to my family. May Allah reward your kindness and compassion. Let your generosity be the beacon of hope that guides us through this crisis.

To show more genuinity of my campaign I have set up a personal website that I would like you to go through to see more about me and my family:
