Stand with Aysar: Restoring Hope Amid Gaza's Devastation

May Peace and Blessings be Upon You All,

My name is Tasia Wallace and I am raising funds for my dear friend, Aysar Al-Aqra, a 20-year-old young man from Gaza. Aysar has endured unimaginable hardships, losing many loved ones along the way. His heart is broken, but despite all of his suffering, Aysar has shown incredible strength and resilience. The best years of his life were stolen when the genocide began. He was ready to step into adulthood, to travel, and to chase his dreams—but instead, for the past 16 months, he has been trapped in an unthinkable nightmare, unable to move forward, only dreaming of a brighter future. Please consider donating, knowing that your support will directly help him rebuild what has been lost and offer him a glimmer of hope in this dark time.

A message from Aysar:

Hello, I'm Aysar from Gaza, specifically Deir Al-Balah, in the middle of the Gaza strip. We are living in difficult days here. My family and I suffer from war, bombing, and hunger. We are unable to provide for basic needs because of the difficult conditions. I lost my future and my life. There is nothing left. I need my message to reach the world with your support, please. I need your help and support.

If you are unable to donate even a little, then please do kindly share my fundraiser. The outside world is my only hope after my faith in God. Many prayers.

Love,

Aysar

How Your Donation Will Help:

All funds raised will go directly toward providing essential necessities, such as food, water, medicine, and clothing. This winter has been especially harsh, and warm clothing is urgently needed. Due to the blockade and border closures, the cost of these basic needs has skyrocketed, making your support even more vital.

In addition, we have launched a separate campaign to help evacuate Aysar and his family once the border reopens. However, this campaign is specifically for immediate relief, providing food and other essentials right now.

Transparency and Direct Support:

Every donation will be sent directly to Aysar via a secure bank wire transfer, ensuring that your support reaches him without delay.

Aysar is more than just a friend to me—he’s like family. The strength he has shown through all the pain and suffering he’s endured is beyond inspiring. Despite everything, he still holds onto hope and dreams of a future, something that’s been so hard to even imagine for him these past 16 months. Your donation will provide him with more than just the essentials—it will show him that people around the world care, that he’s not alone in his struggle, and that his dreams are still worth fighting for. Any amount you can give, no matter how small, will make a world of difference and give him the strength to keep going.

May God bless you abundantly.
