Hello, my name is Arjun. I am based in Providence, RI, USA.

I am raising funds for my friend Mohaned Raed, who has been struggling to survive in Gaza for the past year and a half. He and his brothers have had their home turned to rubble, and they have lost family members, as well as their cat Lucy, in the bombings and attacks.

I spoke to him a few days ago over video chat, and he was sheltering in an abandoned school without electricity in Northern Gaza, and was dealing with the total destruction of his home.

You can follow him and his story as it unfolds on his Instagram.

Please help Mohaned survive and have a chance to rebuild in his homeland. Life has been perilous and expensive for Mohaned and his family. Anything you can give will help.

All donations will be sent in full to Mohaned via Paypal so that he and his family can survive and rebuild someday.
