My name is Laura, I am from Washington D.C. I created this fundraiser for Sahar and her family.
Here's the story in her words:
Hello,
My name is Sahar. I’m from Gaza, and I have two beautiful children — Kareem and Yazan. I used to work as a teacher before the war.
This cruel war took everything from me — my job, my home, my brother, and several of my relatives. Now, I’m living in unbearable conditions, with no work, no income, and two hungry, sick children who desperately need food, medicine, and clothing.
My son Kareem was born with a congenital defect in his vocal cords, which makes speaking very difficult for him. He also suffers from severe breathing problems.
We are just trying to survive… and I’m doing all I can to hold on for the sake of my children.
