Support Ibrahim's family and Shaimaa's dire treatment
Donation protected
Hello my name is Sergio Velecico and I'm here to ensure all funds go directly to my friend Ibrahim and his Family. They are facing a dire catastrophe in Gaza and need our help IMMEDIATELY. Any sort of funds can help this family survive another day. Thank you for showing you humanity. Below is a message from Ibrahim.
My name is Ibrahim, I’m 22 years old, and I live with my family in a tent after our home in Gaza was completely destroyed by an airstrike.
We are a Palestinian family who lost everything in a matter of seconds our house, our memories, our safety. Now we are left with nothing but the will to survive.
I live with my father Hamdan, my mother Rawaya, and my five siblings:
• Shaimaa (21 years old) – my oldest sister, who suffers from a serious heart valve condition. She urgently needs medical treatment to survive.
• Hind (18)
• Doha (17)
• Waad (16)
• Mohammed (13)
After our home was bombed, we were forced to take shelter in a simple tent, exposed to the heat of the sun by day and the bitter cold at night. We live without electricity, without clean water, without food security, and with no source of income.
But beyond the physical hardship, the most painful thing is watching my sister Shaimaa suffer every day, knowing we can’t afford her treatment.
She’s only 21 full of dreams, strength, and hope but her heart is failing her. The doctors say she needs urgent care, yet we can’t even afford transportation to the hospital.
Every day, she gets weaker.
Every day, I pray that help will come before it’s too late.
We are in the middle of a humanitarian disaster.
• No income
• No home
• No medicine
• No stability
• Just a fragile tent… and fragile lives
I’m reaching out to you with an open heart and a desperate plea:
Help me save Shaimaa’s life. Help us survive this crisis.
Any donation — no matter how small — will make a real difference:
• It can help cover her medical needs
• It can provide food for my siblings
• It can give my mother some comfort
• It can bring back a piece of dignity to our broken lives
We don’t ask for much only a chance to live with dignity.
Thank you for reading, for caring, for sharing.
You are a light in a world that feels too dark
