<div>Hi, my name is Kristy. I'm from the US and I am helping my friends, brothers Ali &amp; Mohammed, and their family of six raise funds for daily expenses. The family is originally from North Gaza in the Jabalia Camp, but were forced to flee to Al-Mawasi Khan Younis in the south due to the extreme violence after Oct 7th. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here's a message from Mohammed, along with photos and videos of him and Ali among the devastation, as he's far more qualified than I am to describe the daily horrors he and his family have been through in the past 9 months:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"I am Mohammed Eliyan. My family consists of 6 people from northern Gaza City, which was torn by war.
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div>I graduated in operational nursing and worked in the Indonesian Hospital on a volunteer basis.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81118433_1720051605101827_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After a few days, news came that the entire hospital had been evacuated. The occupation told us to evacuate the city of northern Gaza and head south of the Strip.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81118433_1720017376369698_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My family and I went there to a house. My relatives and I sat without electricity, gas, or clothing, without the minimum necessities of life. After a period of staying in the city, the occupation ordered us to evacuate from the city of Khan Yunis and go to the west of the city in what is called the city of Al-Mawasi.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81118433_1720053161268375_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We stayed there in a nylon tent that did not protect from the cold and did not protect from the hot rays of the sun. Our skins became burnt from the sun’s rays. The sunstrokes are haunting us day after day, so I hope that you will help us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81118433_1720045127848007_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You now know that the borders are closed, but also the prices here are astronomical. Your donations help us obtain food. Your generous help may make a big difference for us. Thank you very much."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>انا محمد عليان عائلتي مكونة من ٦ اشخاص من شمال مدينة غزة الذي مزقتها الحرب تخرجت تمريض عمليات وعملت في مستشفى الاندونيسي على بند التطوع وبعد ايام اتى خبر باخلاء المستشفى بالكامل لقد اخبرنا الاحتلال باخلاء مدينة شمال غزة والتوجه جنوب القطاع قمنا بالذهاب انا وعائلتي الى هناك الى بيت اقاربي وجلسنا بدون كهرباء ولاغاز و لاملابس بدون ادنى مقومات الحياة بعد فترة المكوث من مدينة امرنا الاحتلال بالاخلاء من مدينة خانيونس والتوجه الى غرب المدينة بما تسمى مدينة المواصي مكثنا هناك في خيمة من النايلون لاتحمي من البرد ولاتحمي من اشعة الشمس الحارة اصبحت جلودنا سوداء من اشعة الشمس وضربات الشمس تلاحقنا يوم او بعد يوم لذلك تعرفون الان ان الحدود مغلقة لكن ايضا الاسعار هنا خيالية تبرعاتكم تساعدنا بالحصول على الطعام ان مساعدتك السخية قد تصنع فارق كبير

</div>
<div>The members of the family who will benefit from this fundraiser are:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Jaber (father)-61
</div>
<div>Nihad (mother)-60
</div>
<div>Ansam (daughter)-36
</div>
<div>Ali- (son)-30
</div>
<div>Donia (daughter)-26
</div>
<div>Mohammed (son)-23
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The funds will go towards:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Basic daily necessities: Due to aid being blocked, there are shortages and everything is very expensive. A simple thing like two avocados is $15. A dozen eggs is $11-20. A bottle of potable water is ~$10. A lemon is $4! Shampoo, if they can find it, is $70/bottle.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>GoFundMe fees: 2.9% + .30 of every donation
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Wire fees: This varies, depending on the amount of the transfer. I will be sending them frequent wires rather than one lump sum, so that they have cash on hand regularly for essentials.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Exchange Office fees: Unfortunately, the Exchange Offices in Gaza charge a whopping 30% (!) when money is withdrawn.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To ensure the funds reach Mohammed, Ali and their family, your kind and generous contributions will be wired by me directly to their cousin in the West Bank, who will then transfer them to the family via Western Union. I have wired personal funds to the family in this manner and it was seamlessly successful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you have previously donated to this family, please note that Mohammed and his older brother Ali had separate GFMs that were managed by Mohammed's gracious friend, Amina. After a consultation, we decided that it made more sense to consolidate the two GFMs and for me to manage a single fundraiser, as I have the extra time to do so. Any funds you have donated in the past will be sent by Amina directly to Mohammed via wire and Western Union for swift and secure delivery and then the two GFMs will be closed out.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here are screen caps of transfers made by Amina:

<div>Thank you to everyone who has already donated to help Mohammed, Ali, and the rest of their family! You are amazing people! xo
