HELP MOHAMMED BUILD HIS LIFE AGAIN AFTER THE GAZA WAR

I am Mohammad from Gaza. I have done this link and this donation to help me rebuild my life after what happened on October 7th. It has been a long time since our suffering since that date, and there is little left, and it will be a year without any meaning in our lives.

We lost our house, our car, our projects, our studies, and our city. Nothing is left for us. We are a family of four: my mother, my father, myself, Mohammad, and my little brother Awni, who is 14 years old.

I am a university student majoring in the IT field. I had one semester left in my university to graduate, but luck was not on my side to celebrate after four years of hard work at the university due to the university being bombed and no online information available for the university to retrieve for me to obtain a certificate. All that remains for me is one semester consisting of 12 hours.

I used to work as a freelancer on online platforms in the IT sector, but there were no power sources or internet through the war. I also worked with my father on the solar cells project because the electricity problem has been affecting the people of Gaza for more than ten years due to the shortage of materials allowed to enter Gaza.

So today, I have lost my university, my house, and the years of hard work online. Below you will find pictures of the university and pictures of my house that was bombed.

I'm always saddened by my little brother Awni, imagining him growing up in this world facing nothing but wars and conflicts. Awni, 14 years old, is very fond of life and football. He speaks English and Turkish fluently (he loves learning languages).

Awni is currently suffering from psychological problems; he always feels fearful before bedtime. The sound of an airplane to him doesn't mean entertainment or tourism; it signifies death. So when he hears an airplane, he starts crying and screaming. It breaks my heart to see him like this, to see what he's been through at such a young age.

Awni is a social person who loves life, adores his school, and loves his friends even more. He lost his dearest friends in school and always tries to communicate with them on social media, only to find out they're gone. He misses his science teacher, whom I also know has passed away.

Awni couldn't continue his studies this year because of the war. He used to attend a private school affiliated with the church, which was also completely destroyed. Therefore, he can't study and pursue his dream of becoming a multilingual doctor.

Here are some pictures of Awni in the football club where he excelled and always received awards, and also some pictures of Awni during the war.

Since the beginning of the war, we've always been displaced and moved from one place to another. The hardest thing is to gather your entire life in five minutes into one bag before your house gets bombed. We fled from Gaza City to another area within Gaza City, then to Deir al-Balah, then to Khan Yunis, then to Rafah city in the tents, and another area in Rafah city.

Now I'm trying to rebuild myself once again. Every amount, even if it's just a dollar, will help me rebuild our lives again. What matters most to me now is my little brother Awni. Thank you for reading my story and for your donation.
