Help Yasmin's Family Find Safety and Stability
Donation protected
This fundraising campaign is for my friend Yasmin, who is 21 years old. She is a beautiful, ambitious nursing student who loves to help people and wants to save lives. She found herself trapped in Gaza due to the war that has devastated the region.
Before October 7, Yasmin was looking forward to completing her years of study at the Faculty of Health Sciences and earning the degree she had always dreamed of. But now, she is forced to salvage whatever she can of her education, her life, and her family's future, and to continue any form of study available to her under miserable and unsafe conditions.
She studies in darkness, deprived of sleep and food, under the rain of bombs. She is stripped of all the comfort and opportunities a student deserves. Educational resources are scarce, and the future in Gaza is uncertain.
Her father, who suffers from heart disease, is unable to work or provide any income to cover food and basic needs for their family of six. He also needs treatment and a cardiac cauterization procedure.
Despite all this, Yasmin holds tightly to her dream of completing her education. She needs our help to continue her studies and make her dream come true, through educational and medical funding that will allow her to finish school and live a dignified life.
The people of Gaza yearn for more than just survival. Yasmin deserves an education, just like anyone else.
How the funds will be used:
- Due to the blockade, every donation is being used to purchase food and medicine. Please note that there is a commission fee to retrieve cash and it can range from 30% to 50%.
These are the average costs of food when it's available:
- A kilo of flour costs $60, and Yasmin's family needs 2 kilos per day, which means $120 daily
- Wood - $20
- Drinking water - $20
- Water for daily use - $56
- Cucumber - $50
- Tomato - $30
- Potato - $50
- Rice - $30
- Pasta - $50
- Lentils - $30
- Tomato Sauce - $13.90
Once the crossings open, Yasmin and her family would like to travel to Egypt for medical treatment, but we will keep you posted when the time comes!
Please support my friend by sharing and donating. Know that the good you do always comes back to you. Thank you!
