The people of Gaza are enduring an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. Since October 2023, they have been subjected to relentless bombardment, mass displacement, the destruction of homes, and the collapse of all basic infrastructure. What is happening is not just a war—it is a genocide, and the world is watching in real time.

The Kurraz family is one of countless families fighting to survive amid this devastation. They have lost everything: their home, their businesses, and their entire livelihood. They are now displaced, without shelter, income, or access to clean water, electricity, or sufficient food. What little food exists is often contaminated, unaffordable, or inaccessible.

Once proud, hardworking people, the Kurraz family is now being forced to give up their dignity just to survive. They are doing everything they can, but survival is no longer possible without external help.

This fundraiser is to provide the Kurraz family with the essentials they need to stay alive:

• Food (when it can be found)

• Safe water (purchased or transported in containers)

• Hygiene items

• Clothing and basic necessities

• Temporary shelter

• Medical needs

Gaza is facing famine. Starvation is not a distant threat—it is a current reality.

Every donation helps keep this family alive in conditions that no human being should ever be forced to endure. If you are unable to give, please share this campaign widely.

In a time when the world is failing Gaza, your support is a lifeline.
