Help A Family of 6 Survive Gaza War & Reunite with Dad
Donation protected
Dear friends and people with a heart for humanitarian aid...
It is with a heavy heart that I turn to you today, after a long struggle with my thoughts and after tireless work to help this family wich in need in Gaza.
My name is Yousef and I am from Gaza City, Palestine with my mother and three brothers, 2 systers.
Following the outbreak of war, the Israeli occupation army issued an urgent evacuation order for Gaza City due to the continuous and violent bombing. We fled to Alquds Hospital, leaving all our possessions behind in a desperate attempt to survive. However, our ordeal continued when Israeli forces again forced us to move from Gaza City, this time to Khan Younes city. The invasion of Khan Yunis exacerbated our suffering, and the anxiety, fear and tears in my family's eyes were particularly painful.
Yousef's brother, who sustained severe injuries that resulted in a break of his leg and rendered him unable to walk at all.
Yousef was forced to transport his injured brother to the nearest Hospital, which adds to their suffering.
"Unfortunately, we are unable to provide basic necessities such as clean water and food every single day."
They currently find themselves displaced, living in a tent in Der El-Balah Camp. The constant bombing of the city terrifies children, and the lack of food, clean water and medicine further exacerbates our plight.
I appeal to you to provide support to Yousef's family, so that they can survive this war and evacuate to Egypt. Ibrahim is in urgent need of urgent surger.
This is my beloved family you will be helping:
My mother: Sawsan, 51 years old
My brother: Omar, 28 years old
My brother: Ibrahim, 20 years old
My sister: Nahla, 19 years old
My sister: Rima 13 years old
My brother: Mohammed, 9 yeras old
How funds will be used:
Oct '23 - Feb '24
Loans Oct ’23 - Feb ’24 Living Expenses
These are loans to be repaid from before the GoFundMe campaign was created:
Travel Permits
- 7,000/person x 6 people = 42,000 -
Living Expenses - Juli 24 - August ’24
- Food and drink ($1,000/mo * 6 persons* 2 months) = $3000
- Rent (500/mo * persons * 2 months) = $1,500
October 2023 - August 2024 TOTAL: $9,500
My primary goal in creating this fundraising campaign is to raise the exorbitant amounts requested by the Egyptian authorities. Rafah crossing fees start from $5,000 to $7,000 per person. But in addition to the evacuation plan, this fundraiser will help me treat my brother's and mother's health concerns.
Thank you for your compassion and help during these difficult times.
With Best regards
Yousef Family
