My name is Mohammed Ismail, I am 28 years old. I was living a happy life in Gaza Strip, where I started realizing my dreams and ambitions in 2020 when I opened a cosmetics store.
I started my project with great passion and enthusiasm, equipping the store with the best products and materials that could attract customers. On October 6th, I purchased new goods for the store, excited for the upcoming days and hoping to achieve more success.
On the morning of October 7th, I woke up to the sounds of bombing and destruction. A building opposite my store was bombed, causing the doors and windows to shatter and the store to suffer significant damage. I tried to hold on to hope and believe that things would get better.
On October 13th, my family and I had to move to Deir al-Balah in search of a safe place away from the bombing and destruction. We hoped to return to our normal lives as soon as possible.
But on October 27th, the biggest shock came when a building next to my store was bombed, causing the entire store to burn down. I lost everything: the goods, the money, and the hope for a safe and stable future.
We are now suffering from the ravages of war, living without electricity, and facing severe shortages of water, food, and medicine. I am striving to raise money to leave Gaza Strip and start anew in a safe country without war. I am seeking to pay off the debts of the burned goods and provide for living expenses for a year.
Despite all these difficulties, I love work a lot and believe that hope still exists. I ask everyone who can help to assist me in leaving Gaza Strip to start a new life away from wars and destruction.
This is my story, a story of struggle and hope amidst difficulties. I hope that one day I can return to a safe and stable life and achieve my dreams far from all this pain.
I'm launching this campaign so I can achieve my goal and start new life.
