Please Help the Abu Raida Family Evacuate Gaza

Donation protected
My family is from the Gaza Strip. This war has caused destruction, grief, loss, and unimaginable conditions for us. We are a family of 8 people. My father, Ayman, 50 years old, My mother, Sonia, 47 years old, My brother, Muhammad, 25 years old, My sister, Rawan, 24 years old, My brother, Bilal, 22 years old, My brother, Tawfiq, 17 years old, Tamer Ard, 15 years old, My brother, Ziad, 5 years old. We had a quiet life and worked in agriculture. Our work provided money, food, and necessities for our family. We studied at school and university, but the war upended our lives. It took away our source of livelihood, destroyed our home and agricultural land from which we sold vegetables. The war has taken away our access to education. Now there is nothing in Gaza. No school or university, we cannot continue our education except outside of Gaza. There is no work because there is no infrastructure or foundation for anything. Everything we have has been destroyed. There is no life. We suffer from malnutrition, and disease is growing due to poor conditions. We need help to save our family and get out of Gaza so that we can have a safe, quiet, better life, and continue our education. Gaza has been completely destroyed. I hope you can help us.

Update: We have changed the goal amout to $10k. We will be focusing on registering two family members at a time for exit to Egypt. Once the first goal is complete we will continue this process untill all family members have been evacuated.
