<div>Hello,
</div>
<div>My name is Hatim Saleem. I am originally from Sudan and migrated to America 45 years ago. Now, I am a US citizen trying to help my family in Sudan through this terrible war.  Below is a letter from my niece (my uncle's daughter's children) in her own words. The funds will be transferred to them using Western Union, and the funds will be used to enable them to start a new life in Saudi Arabia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Best Regards!

</div>
<div>Hello, I'm Safa, a 19-year-old former university student.
</div>
<div><strong>I need your help to escape war-torn Sudan.</strong> I've tried restlessly, and now I'm just tired.
</div>
<div>We've started this fundraiser to escape from Sudan to KSA. <strong>My family of 6 (grandma, mom, my 3 sisters) and I will be grateful.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It lies heavily on my heart, but we're in a dire situation, with no choice, no job, no source of money, and no hope.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're currently in Omdurman, Khartoum. The situation here is devastating and deteriorating with every passing second.
</div>
<div><strong>Shells are dropped over us, aiming at our bodies, and this random shelling has been going on for almost a month now.</strong> The war destroyed our lives and futures and left us just hoping to survive another day.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I wouldn't have imagined, not in my worst fears, that my family and I would live in such despair. Finishing university to help my family feels more impossible than ever. I studied for only half a semester before the ordeal, and my sisters have been left with no education for almost 2 years now.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We left our home on the 2nd day of the war and haven't gone back since. In such fear and haste, we left all of our credentials and clothes behind, thinking this was temporary and we'd be back tomorrow. It's been over 500 days since, and we've tried to go back a couple of times, but they wouldn't let us. They said it's an "operations zone," and just like that, we've become displaced.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>There's no safe place in Sudan, and we can't ever afford to move to another place. Living costs are way beyond our capability. We've received humanitarian aid one time, and then it stopped. We have to ask relatives for money every month. It's very hard for me to do this, especially as someone who was in the upper-middle class (thanks to my mom's job in KSA).
</div>
<div>One of my biggest fears is the famine that is approaching every day with the prices changing as well. It's very challenging.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This ordeal has traumatized us so badly, especially my 11-year-old sister, who witnessed the death of my mother's only sibling due to lack of medical help with hospitals out of service and continuous displacement. All of this resulted in massive hair loss and color shift; her smile grows dimmer every day. And my mom suffers the most as she can't do anything for us. She hasn't had a job for so long. I want to help her; she's not alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The money will help us with credentials, passports, visas, and tickets, and hopefully, we can make it to safety.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I'm asking the kindness of your hearts to help us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>God bless you.
</div>
