Help Riham and her family survive in Gaza

*Due to technical issues with our previous campaign, we've created this new GoFundMe. Thank you for your understanding and support during this difficult time.*

Dear Friends,

My name is Riham, and my family and I live in Gaza. I am a 27-year-old psych counselor, wife, and mother of four children: Amira (7 years), Muhammad (5 years), Ali (almost 2 years), and Layan (2 months). Eight years ago, my husband and I got married and we worked extremely hard to build a life for ourselves and our children. We lived in my husband’s family home while we saved for a home of our own, and I studied at Al-Aqsa University where I graduated with honors.

Pictured below is my husband and I with our eldest children, Amira and Muhammad before the war.

We moved into our own home just one week before October 7th. When rockets started falling around us, we fled, hoping to return in a few days, only to realize that it would not be possible, as it was completely burned and destroyed by the bombing, reduced to rubble. Our house, belongings, memories, and dreams were gone.

Here is what remains of our house.

My children and I are currently living in a tent at a shelter in Khan Younis, displaced and struggling to survive. We lack basic necessities such as winter clothes and diapers, and do not have enough to eat.

I am reaching out with a heavy heart, asking for your support to help feed my children and meet their basic needs until this nightmare ends. We’ve lost so much, but with your help, we can heal and begin again.

Thank you for standing with us in our time of need. May God bless you all.

With gratitude,

Riham
