Who I am?
My name is Paul del Rosario. I am an educator originally from San Francisco, CA, but currently based in Tokyo, Japan. I'm creating this campaign on behalf of my former student, Lama Mouharb, who was enrolled in my online course called "The Itchy Olive." Due to her circumstances in Gaza, I am raising funds for her immediate humanitarian needs. My plan is to gather funds and send her whatever donations are made via Western Union or direct bank transfer to her account at Bank of Palestine.
Who exactly I'm supporting?
This campaign supports Lama Mahmoud Abdelqader Mouharb and her family who are currently displaced within Gaza.
Lama's Story
"My name is Lama Mouharb, and I'm currently located in Al Nusirat, in the Middle of Gaza.
The ongoing humanitarian crisis has forced my family and me to relocate multiple times in search of safety. We have not received any humanitarian aid for over two months, creating an increasingly desperate situation for our survival.
Despite these challenges, I've been volunteering at local hospitals to help those in need whenever possible.
The funds raised will help with:
Humanitarian needs for me and my family (food, water, shelter, and medical supplies)
Basic hygiene and sanitation products
Emergency medical necessities
Currently, there is no active evacuation route as the borders are closed. My family and I are focused on surviving day-to-day in our current location under extremely difficult circumstances.
How funds will reach me?
Funds will be sent via Bank of Palestine or PayPal, depending on availability.
Any support, no matter how small, would make a meaningful difference in helping me and my family survive during this humanitarian crisis. With no aid reaching us for over two months, your assistance is truly life-saving.
Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
Lama Mouharb"
