Good day/night to you, whoever you might be reading this. My name is Zakaria ZAHIDI, a french citizen setting up this GoFundMe for Wael, a dear friend of mine and my mother. We come to you, asking for your generosity so that we can help our friend and his family have a slightly less hard life. Here's his message to you, talking about himself, his family and the war:

The original, in arabic :

"انا وائل من غزة كنت اعمل قبل الحرب في صيانه التكيف والتبريد وهذه قصتي ، إنقاذ وعودة للحياة: اختي وابي من غزة

من قلب الوجع... نمد أيدينا إليكم

إلى كل قلب رحيم وعين ترى المعاناة...

نحن نكتب إليكم هذه المناشدة من قلب الكارثة في غزة، حيث تحولت الحياة إلى صراع يومي من أجل البقاء. وقصتنا هي قصة الآلاف الذين فقدوا كل شيء إلا الأمل في النجاة.

كانت حياتنا مستقرة قبل أن تجتاحنا هذه الأزمة، ولكن الآن، أصبح مصير اختي الغاليةووالدي الغالين على قلبي معلقاً بين الدمار والحاجة: اختي الغاليه وابي الغالي

لقد فقدنا مأوانا الآمن، وبتنا كلانا نواجه تحديات مضاعفة:

نحن نطلب مساعدتكم لتوفير أساسيات العودة للحياة بعد هذه الكارثة:

* *الاحتياجات الصحية والعلاجية:* [لاختي وابي المصابين].

لقد استنفدت كل ما أملك في محاولة تأمين احتياجات عائلتي. نمد أيدينا إليكم طالبين العون لنستطيع أن نبدأ رحلة إعادة بناء ما هدمته الحرب، ولنحافظ على الأمل في عيني اختي والدي .

ندعوكم للمساهمة والمشاركة ونشر هذه المناشدة، فكل دولار هو خطوة نحو عودة الحياة الطبيعية لأهلي

جزاكم الله خيراً، وتقبل الله منكم وشكرا لكل يد امتدت لنا بالخير"

And a translation :

"I am Wael from Gaza. Before the war, I worked in air conditioning and refrigeration maintenance. This is my story: Rescue and a Return to Life: My Sister and Father from Gaza

From the depths of our pain... we reach out to you.

To every compassionate heart and eye that sees the suffering...

We write this appeal to you from the heart of the catastrophe in Gaza, where life has become a daily struggle for survival. Our story is the story of thousands who have lost everything except the hope of survival.

Our lives were stable before this crisis struck, but now the fate of my dear sister and my beloved father hangs in the balance between destruction and need: my dear sister and my dear father.

We have lost our safe haven, and we both face double the challenges:

We ask for your help to provide the basics for a return to life after this catastrophe:

* *Health and Medical Needs:* [for my injured sister and father].

I have exhausted all my resources trying to provide for my family's needs. We reach out to you, seeking your help to begin the journey of rebuilding what the war has destroyed, and to keep hope alive in the eyes of my sister and father.

We urge you to contribute, participate, and share this appeal. Every dollar is a step towards restoring normalcy to my family. May God reward you, accept your good deeds, and thank you to everyone who has extended a helping hand."

As mentioned in his message, the fund will be used for medical care, supplies, food, clothes and anything to help them survive and have a somehow decent amount of comfort. The money will be sent to him via Paypal.
