Harbor of Hope: Support the Altayib Family from Gaza

NAJI ALTAYIB is organizing this fundraiser.

Donation protected

This campaign is raising funds to provide essentials for 7 families, which include 13 adults and 29 children.

I am Naji Altayib, a Palestinian from Gaza currently residing in Canada. I have set up this campaign to provide for my family members who are still in Gaza: this includes my grandparents, 4 uncles and their families, 2 aunts and their families. My parents were able to evacuate to Egypt right before the Rafah border was closed.

My grandmother suffers from a heart disease and my grandfather has unstable blood pressure, so they both need medical care that is currently unavailable in Gaza. They were recently approved for medical evacuation, but were stopped by the IDF before they could leave, so we don’t know when they will be able to leave.

After multiple displacements, my family members are currently renting 3 rooms to shelter in. We are raising money to buy some materials to make minor repairs on their house, in order for them to be able to live there rather than continue to rent.

My family has suffered a lot during these months, including the loss of my uncle and multiple displacements. None of them have an income right now, so I have been the sole provider for them and the help of this campaign has been invaluable.

COST BREAKDOWN FOR THE NEXT 6 MONTHS:

As of May 1st 2025, we have raised 72k CAD, which have been used to purchase essentials for my family, such as food, water and medicine, as well as pay for their rent. This cost breakdown is for funds being raised after those, to cover their needs for another 6 months.

Rent (until minor repairs on the house are finished): 1,000 USD/month

Food & water: 2,675 USD/ month

Minor house repairs: 10,000 USD

Total for 6 months: 32,050 USD

GoFundMe fees (〜4%): 1,731 USD

Transfer fees (〜35%): 11,218 USD

TOTAL: 44,998 USD = 62,380 CAD

62,380 + 72,210 (funds raised thus far) = 134,590 CAD

Thank you so much to everyone who has helped so far and to everyone who will help going forward. This campaign is instrumental in the survival and wellbeing of my family, and we truly appreciate every contribution.
