My name is Mohammad and I am currently in Germany. I’m writing this with a heavy heart for my cousin, Saher, who is currently living in Gaza.

Every day, Saher wakes up not knowing if the day will bring safety, food, clean water, or even a moment of peace. Life in Gaza is not just difficult—it is a constant struggle for survival. Basic human needs that many of us take for granted have become luxuries there. Electricity is scarce, medical care is limited, food prices are unbearable, and safety is never guaranteed.

Saher is not asking for comfort or luxury. He is simply trying to stay alive, to protect his dignity, and to hold on to hope in circumstances that no human being should have to endure.

As his family, watching this from afar is heartbreaking. The feeling of helplessness—knowing someone you love is suffering and not being able to reach them—is something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. This fundraiser is one of the few ways I can try to support him and remind him that he is not alone, that the world has not forgotten him.

Your donation, no matter how small, can make a real difference. It can help Saher access food, clean water, medical needs, and basic necessities that are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. More than that, it sends a powerful message: his life matters.

If you are unable to donate, sharing this campaign is also an act of kindness and solidarity.

Thank you for taking the time to read Saher’s story. Thank you for your compassion, your humanity, and your willingness to help in a time when it is needed most.

With gratitude,

Mohammad Abuajwa
