Hope in the Time of War – Help Me Feed My Family

Help Me Feed My Family and Return to School

Hello,

My name is Riyad Ramez Riad Tamous, and I’m a 20-year-old student from Gaza, Palestine.

Before the war, I was a high school student at Sami Al-Alami School. I dreamed of becoming a doctor — to save lives and serve my community. But everything changed when the war started. My school was destroyed, our home turned to rubble, and I was forced to put my education on hold for two years.

Now, I am not just a student — I am the only provider for my family. My father is very ill and unable to work, and I am responsible for finding food and clean water for my family each day. We live in very harsh conditions, like many displaced families in Gaza, without safety or a stable place to call home.

I am creating this campaign to raise funds for myself — to help me support my family with food and essentials, and to resume my education so I can rebuild my future.

Who am I?

I am Riyad Ramez Riad Tamous, a dedicated student and the eldest son in my family.

Where am I from?

I live in Gaza, a region currently facing severe humanitarian challenges.

Who am I raising funds for?

I am raising funds for myself and my family, who are currently displaced in Gaza. This campaign is personal — I am both the organizer and the beneficiary.

How will the funds be used?

Your generous donations will be used to:

• Buy basic food supplies for my family

• Provide clean drinking water

• Pay my school tuition fees so I can return to education

How will I access the funds?

I will receive the donations through bill payments via post (Bill system) to cover essential needs and school costs. I will ensure full transparency and careful use of each donation.

Please consider supporting this campaign.

Every small contribution brings me closer to hope, education, and survival.

You are our light in the darkness.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
