Urgent: Help my family to evacuate from Gaza

Dear Free World people

I hope this letter reaches you in good health.

I am Yousef Albuhaisi from Gaza. I live in the Netherlands with my wife, Rana, and our children. I am writing to you with a heavy heart, seeking urgent help for my family, who is trapped in the war-torn region of Gaza. Our situation is dire, and I am contacting you for support.

On October 21st, tragedy struck my wife's family when the house in Rafah was bombed by the Israeli air force. We lost 9 family members, including Rana's two brothers and their children.

I am seeking financial assistance to evacuate my family to Egypt. Leaving Gaza is not easy, and we are required to pay substantial fees to ensure safe border crossings. The estimated cost for evacuation is 5000 USD (Fees).

Here's a breakdown of the costs:

- Hala Company fees: 14 family members x 5000 USD = 70,000 USD

- Cost of travel to Cairo: 14 x 250 USD = 3,500 USD

I understand that times are tough, and any amount you can contribute will make a significant difference, no matter how small. The funds raised will be used transparently to cover the evacuation costs.

I kindly ask for your support and request you to share this appeal with your friends and family. Together, we can make a real impact and provide a lifeline for my family during these challenging times.

Your generosity will provide immediate relief and hope for a secure and peaceful future for my family.

Thank you for considering helping us. Your kindness and support mean the world to us.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Yousef

PS: Initially launched to facilitate the immediate evacuation process, this initiative has proven to be a crucial resource during moments of unpredictability. In the event of a ceasefire before our planned relocation to Egypt, the funds gathered will smoothly shift towards the essential endeavour of reconstructing our devastated house in Gaza and cover the high living cost of buying food, water and other essential needs. The flexibility of this campaign mirrors the unforeseeable aspects of our situation, guaranteeing that every contribution from our backers remains committed to the overarching objective of reinstating stability and rebuilding lives. Your ongoing support serves as the motivating factor behind our resilience and determination in confronting challenges.
