My name is Kamal Khalifa. I am a son of Gaza, and the war has taken everything from me.

In a single, violent moment, I lost my home, my job, and the life I spent years building for my family. We were given no warning and no choice—only destruction. What once gave us safety, dignity, and hope is now gone.

Today, my only responsibility is survival.

Every morning, I wake up with fear in my heart, asking myself how I will protect my family for just one more day. Food is scarce. Clean water is uncertain. Aid barely reaches us. And now winter is approaching, bringing bitter cold, while we have no proper shelter and no warmth.

There are moments that break me as a parent—when my children look at me for answers I do not have. In those moments, all I can do is hold them close and promise that somehow, someone will care.

Please donate to save my family.

This fundraiser is our only lifeline. Your kindness can mean food, warmth, safety, and the chance for my children to survive another day.

If you cannot donate, please share our story. Every act of compassion brings us closer to survival.
