Support Abeer’s Family Escape from Gaza War Zone

Donation protected
Greetings to all who lend a helping hand,

I am Abeer Hussain, reaching out to you from the heart of Gaza, Palestine, in the midst of a dire humanitarian crisis. I humbly manage this fundraising campaign with the hope of securing a brighter future for my family amidst the harrowing circumstances of genocide.

Our situation is dire: our home has been destroyed, leaving us displaced in Rafah. We lack basic necessities and face health concerns, particularly for my father who suffers from chronic chest infections and asthma aggravated by the current conditions.






Previously, I worked as a daily contract teacher with UNRWA and had prospects for a permanent position this year. However, the war has disrupted education systems and my employment opportunities. Additionally, my online tutoring work is hindered by the lack of suitable space in our current living situation, impacting my income.



My sister Dania lost her job as a Project Coordinator for football clubs (salary 750 $ per month) due to project closures amid the conflict, further exacerbating our financial strain. The upheaval has also disrupted the education of my younger siblings.



Three days before the outbreak of war, my beloved brother joyfully celebrated his graduation ceremony.




To secure our evacuation from Gaza, we require funds to cover transportation, living expenses, and medical needs for at least six months. To facilitate our evacuation from Gaza to Egypt, we must engage with an agency called Halla based in Egypt. This agency specializes in border coordination and transportation services. To cross the Rafah border to Egypt, each member of my family requires between $5000 to $7000. In total, we seek $80,000 to secure the coordination at the Rafah border, cover transportation, and provide for our basic needs – food, shelter, medication for my ailing father, and other essentials (including website fees).




Your support, regardless of the amount, is crucial in facilitating our relocation and providing stability during this tumultuous time.

Thank you for your kindness, your compassion, and your unwavering belief in the power of humanity.

Warm regards,
Abeer

Hello. My name is Renea Thompson. I am a special education teacher living in Minnesota, USA. I am a good friend of Abeer Hussain. We began as teacher and student. I was her student, and she was my Arabic teacher. Abeer's warm personality immediately grew on me, and we became fast friends as a result. Because Abeer is unable to access GoFundMe from her location, she has asked me to facilitate this campaign on her behalf. All funds will be distributed to Abeer through a bank transfer immediately upon the goal being reached. Thank you for anything that you can contribute to her and her family.
