<div>Hi,
</div>
<div>My name is Ted Sirota, and if you don't know me, I am a musician based in Chicago, IL. I'm raising funds here for a friend and his family suffering through the genocide in Gaza. They have been displaced from their home ten times since October, and have nearly been bombed on numerous occasions. At this point it is a miracle that the family is still surviving. Mohammed Ahmed Abu Rida, his wife Alaa and their three children, Ahmed, Alaa, and Lana, have been living in conditions that no human beings should be forced to live in. They have been living in hot, flimsy tents, on sand and dealing with famine, disease, lack of clean water, medicine etc. It is shameful, and a mark on humanity, that people in such a situation are forced to turn to GoFundMe to survive. But here we are. I have been helping this family for a few months now. They have never begged for anything. They merely want to live. Please help if you can. Any amount will help them survive.

<div>They will be the beneficiaries of 100% of the donations. I will transfer their funds to their PayPal account, which is how we have been handling the donations we've received up to this point. Because I already have a GoFundMe account and two campaigns of my own, I agreed to start this campaign for them because it is very hard for them to get internet access in Gaza, let alone electricity or food and water.

<div>Thank You,
</div>
<div>Ted
