Hazem Maher is 27 years old and lives in Gaza. Prior to the war, he worked as an accountant and was building a house in order to wed and start his own family. The war stopped all of his life plans. He and his immediate family fled the north in order to escape certain death. Hazem's newly built house was obliterated. Hazem, his siblings, and his parents (50 and 64 years old) lived in a tent but were eventually able to find a place to rent in Gaza City.

Famine has left the entire family thin and sick and weary. As the IDF has begun to destroy Gaza City in recent weeks, Hazem and his family have once again needed to flee their home to survive. They are now living within the humanitarian corridor in the south, in a tent without running water or a bathroom, and uncertain food supplies. There are 7 family members living in this tent. Hazem's sweet niece, who is a toddler, has become nonverbal due to the ongoing unremitting bombardment.

Food is expensive, as are most of life's necessities due to the supply blockades. It is nearly impossible for Hazem or his family members to find or sustain work to support themselves. They are forced to live off the kindness and generosity of foreigners who watch with horror as innocent civilians are killed..

If you are able to donate, please know that your support and kindness are lifelines for Hazem and his family. Your support gives them hope that the world has not turned its back on innocent people caught in the middle of madness and chaos.

My name is Tegan Fuller and I am a friend of Hazem who has been helping him and his family for the past year or so. I am a veterinarian who works in Pennsylvania in the US. I am running this campaign to help Hazem and his family while they endure this human tragedy.

Any donations, especially recurring monthly donations, are vital to help Hazem and his extended family. Your donations allow Hazem and his family to eat, afford clothes for winter and pay for life necessities in a war zone when there is no way to work or earn money. Thank you so much for your support and generosity. Hazem is extremely grateful. Your support can save lives, literally.
