Help Sultan and his family evacuate from Gaza

Hello, I’m Pixie and fundraising on behalf of my friend, Sultan who needs your help to evacuate from Gaza with his 8 family members. Here is what Sultan wants you to know:

“Today I write to you, my heart is heavy with sadness and my soul is burdened by the weight of loss. Wars have ruined my life, leaving behind a landscape of destruction. I am a 20-year-old student, Sultan Saeed Abu Abed. I finished high school and then joined Al-Azhar University and specialized in applied multimedia at the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology. I finished my academic year and just as the second academic year was due to begin, the barbaric aggression began against our defenseless people.

The Zionist occupation destroyed our homes located in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip and our interests and university were destroyed. Our dreams and goals became stuck in the air without a home, shelter or future.”

Here is what remains of Sultan’s family home:

“We have moved to an unknown future, so I humbly extend my hand to you. Not as a beggar asking for alms, but as a human being in need of compassion and solidarity to leave the Gaza Strip, resume my studies, and reach my dreams.”

Sultan lives with eight family members including his mother, who ran a hair salon before the war began.

Here is Sultan’s mother’s business before the war began:

This is his mother’s salon business now:

Sultan had dreams of becoming of photographer, all he wanted was to buy a modern, good-quality camera and have his work recognised.

Now the conditions worsen into the second winter of this continuous suffering. Sultan’s tent has been leaking due to the heavy rain and wind and the conditions around Sultan and his family continue to crumble.

If you say you stand with Palestine, you have a chance to save lives and restore dreams for an entire family here!

Sultan has explained that it is currently £5,000 per person to cross the border and once the border is open, this will then cost Sultan and his family £40,000. This fundraiser will grant Sultan and his family safety by evacuating once it becomes a possibility again shortly.
