My name is Sally, and I am a mother of four. I have an 8-month-old baby, my other daughter Rawan is 6 years old, I have another daughter Layan is 8 years old, and I have a daughter Rasha who is two and a half years old. My husband passed away, and my son is also ill and requires dialysis twice a week due to urinary influx. I also have a daughter who suffers from malnutrition.

I desperately need help to buy food and drink for my children, and I also need to purchase medication for my son. We have no money to live on, and I live in a tent with my four children. I am writing to you with hope and optimism that you can provide the support that will help me protect my sick son and daughter. Every donation from you, no matter how small, can save my life and give my children a chance to recover. May God bless every heart that extends a helping hand to me in this difficult time.

From Christa:

My name is Christa Robinson, and I am a graduate student at Michigan State University. I met Sally online and her situation is urgent and overwhelming. She is in Gaza where the majority of the population is facing acute malnutrition, and other potentially fatal conditions such as exposure, lack of healthcare and all life-sustaining infrastructure, and massacres regardless of 'ceasefire'. This fundraiser is not a band-aid but a tourniquet until the world steps in and this genocide is ended. Your donations are for survival and will help with basic items like food, water, shelter, medical care, household items, transportation, and communication needs. I will send funds to Sally via PayPal.
