My name is Samantha Yuhas; I'm based in State College, PA. This fundraiser is to support my friend, Wafaa and her family as they continue to endure hardship in the Gaza Strip.

I have set up this campaign on behalf of the family of my dear friend Wafaa. Please take a moment to read her message below and donate whatever you can; thank you in advance!

"I'm Wafaa from Gaza.

We had a beautiful life full of love and happiness , but this war came and destroyed everything.

But with your help and donation through this link, I'm trying to save my family, get out of Gaza, and survive this war. "

With the end of aid and the return of hostilities, Wafaa now finds herself again in a desperate situation. Even a $1 donation helps her to access food, water, and other necessities and allows her to clear a pathway to safety once the crossings are re-opened.
