Nour and Hassan's Family is Starving in Gaza - Please help!

Nour and Hassan’s three children — Shahad (7), Majdi (6), and Mohammed (3) — are going to bed hungry, night after night, in a house that no longer protects them. Bombing tore their home apart: walls are missing, windows are shattered, and the floor is littered with rubble. The cold air blows through the broken rooms. But with nowhere else to go, this is where they must stay.

Hassan was released after 18 months in Israeli detention, his body weakened, his mind traumatised. He urgently needs medication and special food to heal — but nothing is affordable anymore. “We were living a simple, peaceful life before the war” Hassan says. “Everything was taken from us in the blink of an eye.”

Despite everything he has endured, Hassan continues to place his faith in God. He prays for the strength to protect his family and for peace to return to their lives. What he wants most is safety, dignity, and a future for his children where they can grow up without fear.

Since the war began, Nour and Hassan have fled bombings, lived in tents, and lost everything they owned. Nour was a mother alone, living in extreme danger, facing many near death experiences for many months. Once Hassan was released, they returned to their ruined home - ultimately because they had nowhere left to run to.

Now they face another deadly threat: hunger. Nour shares: “Food prices are so high. Flour is over $400. Vegetables are $20. Milk is $15. We want to provide life necessities for our children, for my husband. But we can’t.”

Little Majdi’s and Shahad’s teeth are rotting from malnutrition. Both children are in pain, struggling to eat and sleep. They urgently need dental treatment that the family simply can’t afford. Their bodies are growing weaker and the children cry out in hunger. Every day, Nour worries: Will we find food today? Will my children survive this siege?

You can change this right now.

Your donation will help Nour and Hassan feed their children, buy medicine for Hassan, and ease the pain of three little ones who just want to smile again. Even the smallest gift could mean a meal, relief from pain, or a day of hope.

My name is Catherine, I live in the UK, and I met this family through my daughter, who fundraises for Palestinian families. I am in direct contact with Nour and Hassan. They are kind, honourable, and dignified people, who never wanted to ask for help but have no choice.

All funds raised will be sent directly to Nour and Hassan — the ultimate beneficiaries. I intend to send the funds by international bank transfer, but if at any stage this becomes unavailable due to the changing circumstances of the war, I may need to use other secure routes. The money will go towards food, medicines, and medical treatment for the family.

If you cannot give, please share this fundraiser. Every act of kindness helps Nour and Hassan take another step toward survival.
