My name is Sasha Karleusa, I am located in NYC, USA. I am organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Nada and her family. We connected through Instagram, and this is where Nada shared her story with me.

Please take a moment to read Nada's story:

"Hello. My name is Yasmine Taha Al-Astal, but I am called Nada. I am from Gaza and I am displaced in Deir al-Balah. I cannot leave Gaza. I need your help. I am married and I am a mother of two young children. My son Youssef is two years old and Mustafa Amr is 8 months old. Mustafa was born at the beginning of the war, and he was only five days old when they bombed our house at the beginning of the war, and after that the occupation bombed my house above our heads, but thank God we came out alive. We are asking for $50,000 so that my two children, my husband, my mother-in-law and I can go out through the Rafah border crossing. Please help us get out of Gaza where I can live with my children safely. Donate, even if it is something simple."

Please donate what you can, share with your friends and family, and pray for Nada and her family. Thank you!
