After the war ended, another war began within us: the war of standing on our feet again. Despite the pain that tries to keep us in the darkness through sadness and fear, we have decided to reach for the light.

I am Manar, a pharmaceutical student on the verge of graduation, looking to create hope for myself and my family of ten with four of us in university, struggling to keep up with the mounting fees on top of our daily needs. Without means of making an income, we are relying on your generous donations. It's my hope that you will help us as we navigate this transition period. Are we to stay and rebuild our lives or travel and begin to create a life away from our beloved home? Whatever the future holds, we need your help. Every $10 you spend on a cup of coffee could instead be a seed of restoring hope in our lives.
