<div>This is Mohammed Safi, and I come to you with a heart weighed down by loss and unimaginable pain. Putting my story into words feels like reliving a nightmare, but I write this with hope — hope that you might hear my voice, feel my pain, and extend a hand to help my family survive and rebuild.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am a father, a husband, an engineer, and a proud resident of Gaza. Today marks the 425th day of a war that has shattered our lives beyond recognition. Life in Gaza is no longer life as the world knows it. We live in constant fear, with the deafening sounds of bombs becoming part of our daily reality. We've been displaced time and time again, endlessly searching for a place of safety that simply does not exist here.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But the greatest wound of all is the loss of my children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On November 25th, my wife and I welcomed our beautiful twins, Ahmad and Rahaf, into the world. For a brief moment, we were overcome with joy — a ray of light in the surrounding darkness. But the war stole that light from us. On December 7th, while we were sheltering in Al-Yaman Hospital, Israeli forces bombarded the area with white phosphorus bombs, weapons banned under international law. My son Ahmad, so tiny and innocent, could not survive the toxic fumes. I held his lifeless body in my arms, unable to comprehend the horror.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Less than three weeks later, on December 29th, my daughter Rahaf began struggling to breathe. Gaza's hospitals, crippled by relentless attacks, had no oxygen to save her. I watched helplessly as her tiny chest rose and fell for the last time. In less than a month, I lost both of my babies to this war. No parent should ever endure this pain.
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yet, my story of loss doesn’t end there. Our home, once filled with laughter and dreams, has been reduced to rubble. My car is gone. The small market I ran to support my family has been destroyed. The engineering job I once had is no longer available due to the ongoing war. We now live with nothing but the clothes on our backs and the scars on our hearts.
</div>
<div>Pictures of my house:

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite all of this, I refuse to give up. I must keep going for my wife and my remaining son, who still look to me for safety and stability. But I can’t do it alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is why I am reaching out to you. I need your help to rebuild our home and start a small business again to provide for my family. Your support can give us more than just shelter; it can give us hope — the belief that life can be rebuilt, even from the ashes of destruction.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please, if you can, donate to our fundraiser. Every contribution, big or small, will help us find our footing again in a world that has been turned upside down.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to hear our story. May your kindness bring hope not just to my family, but to the many others who, like us, are struggling to survive in Gaza.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With heartfelt gratitude,Mohammed Safi
