Message from Abeer: “Hello, I am Abeer from Gaza. I need help so that I can feed my little girl. We are in great need of money in order for us and our children to live. Help me, good people, even if it is $10.

My goal is to collect $5,000 so that I can buy myself a tent, build a bathroom, buy kitchen utensils, a comfortable mattress for us to sleep on, healthy and nutritious food, and healthy water, and take good care of myself so that there is no miscarriage, as I have had a miscarriage before, so I am always afraid of miscarrying again.

I dreamed that my daughter, my husband and I would live a better life in our home, but fate willed it and we lost our home and all our dreams.”

Abeer is a young mother in Gaza in urgent need of funds to be able to support herself and her family, including her sweet daughter, Susan. Their home and all belongings were bombed to rubble, and they have been displaced multiple times, without even a tent of their own for shelter. The cost of a tent is now about $1000 and is their top priority, but they need basic supplies to survive and hope to build a bathroom. Abeer is only 23 years old herself, and is also 4 months pregnant and needs medication. Any amount you are able to share to support her would be enormously appreciated - thank you!

Note: I am a friend of Abeer in Chicago posting this fundraiser on her behalf, and will transfer all donations collected via PayPal.
