Standing with Abdul Aziz's Family

Dear friends,

I come to you with a heavy heart as I share the poignant story of my dear friend Abdulaziz. Over the course of 17 years, our friendship has been a steadfast source of strength and support. We shared laughter and dreams as university roommates for nearly five years, forming a bond that has endured the test of time.

Abdulaziz's journey led him back to Gaza, Palestine, where he built a life filled with purpose and love. His thriving dental practice and cherished family brought him immeasurable joy and fulfillment. However, the tranquility he worked so hard to cultivate was shattered by the ravages of war.

Now, Abdulaziz and his family find themselves grappling with unimaginable hardship. Their once-peaceful home has been reduced to rubble, and they must endure the harsh realities of life in a cramped tent amidst the chaos of conflict. Every day brings new challenges as they struggle to secure basic necessities like food, clean water, and shelter.

The situation within these tents is catastrophic. A critical shortage of food aid and drinking water threatens to precipitate famine. Overcrowding has led to a rampant spread of diseases. Skyrocketing prices have exacerbated the already extreme difficulties of daily life, with Abdul Aziz and his family often going days between meals. Amidst the constant threat of bombings and gunfire, Abdul Aziz struggles to provide his four children with the basic necessities of milk, clothing, food, and water. Your support can help Abdul Aziz and his children navigate through the profound tragedy they face in Gaza.

In these challenging times, Abdul Aziz requires a minimum of $300 each day to support his family amidst soaring prices and scarce resources. Your assistance would be invaluable until he can resume his clinic's operations under normal circumstances.

In the face of such adversity, I humbly ask for your generous support. Your contribution, no matter the amount, can make a profound difference in their lives. With your help, we can provide Abdulaziz's family with the hope, sustenance, and comfort they desperately need during these trying times.

Let us unite as a community to offer a ray of hope amidst the darkness. Together, we can extend a helping hand to Abdulaziz's family and show them that they are not alone in their journey. Your generosity has the power to transform their lives and offer them a glimpse of a brighter tomorrow.

Please, join me in making a meaningful difference for Abdulaziz's family in Gaza. Your kindness and compassion will truly make a world of difference.

With heartfelt gratitude,
