Help Dana and her family escape the Gaza war

Donation protected
My name is Dana Aljurf , a 24-year-old survivor of the war on Gaza to this day. Before this war, I used to be an ambitious person despite of te hardships that my country has been always go going through. I’ve always dreamed of owning a beautiful clothing store, thus I worked hardly on this dream and started my online busines clothing store named (AROMA) a year ago. Im also a cellist as I play cello since 2012 , and not so far I started giving cello lessons at a music conservatory. I love how my life was full of success, achievements, love and peace, but unfortunately, after this catastrophic event, everything has changed for ever. I lost my business clothes and my cello as our family home got bombed and destroyed by the air strike. It wasn’t only a house , rather, it was a shelter, a place where you feel free to do whatever you want, eat whenever you want, sleep with peace and get friends there to share laughs and play some beautiful music together. My destroyed home was really full of stunning memories and till now I can’t believe that it is no longer here. I have 3 sisters: Rawan, Nouran, and Judy. Rawan ( my twin sister) is a dietitian who has always dreamed of opening her own clinic, but this war stopped her from reaching any of her dreams. My sister Nouran who is supposed to be at her last university year, lost many of her friends and her university has completely been bombed, and now she is not knowing her fate and how she will graduate.
Judy, whom is 16 years old also lost her lovely school and many of her friends have travelled forever after this war .
Since the start of the war, we have evacuated more than 4 times, and we can evacuate the fifth at anytime because we are surrounded by danger all the time. Being displaced, struggling to find anything to eat because you simply need to survive is what we are living in these days. Famine is increasing day by day and if we were able to access some food , we can’t afford it due to high prices and control over food entry. We lack proper nutrition, we have no access to clean water. Out breaks of diseases, inappropriate access to proper healthcare services, and poor hygienic environment all pose another risk for our survival. My family and I don’t know how we will live if we were able to survive this horrible event , and how we will start everything all over again from the beginning. I deeply appreciate any financial assistance from you to help my family to either rebuild our house and business if we could , or travel to a safer place and complete what is remaining in our life. Thank you all!
