My name is Stone, and I'm sharing this fundraising campaign to help a friend in Gaza continue her life and support her family. Raiqa and her children have been through so much since October 2023. She has lost family members, her home, and her sense of security and hope for the future. These are her words since she began her fundraising efforts: My name is Raiqa Khalil Al-Najjar, and I humbly share my story as a Palestinian girl living in the heart of Gaza City. I come from a family of six: four children and my husband, who was injured in this war. I find myself facing life's hardships amidst the conflict. I face difficulties of all kinds, deprived of everything. Life was better before the war, but now nothing is right. With rising prices and increasingly scarce basic necessities, the burden of survival weighs heavily on our shoulders, testing our resilience and determination. Faced with this ordeal, I find myself compelled to ask for help, not only for myself but also for my family.
