Support for Basma after the loss of her beloved husband, Naif Gebara.

It is with overwhelming sadness that we share the passing of Naif, who left us far too soon after a sudden and short illness. His loss has devastated everyone who knew him, but no one more than his loving wife Basma and his two sons, Hadi and Ziad.

Naif was a kind, smart, and funny man — the type of person who would drop everything to help anyone in need. His warmth filled every room, and his generosity touched countless people throughout his life. Losing someone like him leaves a space that can never truly be filled.

During this incredibly difficult time, many have asked how they can show their support. This GoFundMe has been created to help with two important needs:

1. Funeral and Memorial Costs

Because Naif’s passing was so sudden, the family is now facing unexpected funeral expenses. Your support will help give him the dignified farewell he deserves and ease some of the financial strain on Basma during this heartbreaking time.

2. Education Fund for Hadi

In honour of Naif’s commitment to his children’s future, part of the funds will go toward setting up an education fund for Hadi. This will help ensure he has the opportunities Naif always dreamed of for him, and provide stability for the years ahead.

Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference. Your donations, prayers, and shares will help lift some of the burden from Basma as she navigates life without her husband, and will provide support and hope for Hadi and Ziad during this unimaginable loss.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and love.
