Help Amany's Family Escape Gaza's Hardships

Donation protected

Hello all,

I am raising funds to get a dear friend of mine out of Gaza. She is someone who is near and dear to my heart. I check on her daily to make sure she is still alive; my biggest fear is that one day I don't hear back from her. Amany Omar, her Husband and 2 children have been displaced several times in Gaza. They've had several close calls and are suffering from starvation and homelessness. Her daughter has a severe case of hepatitis and there is no adequate medical treatment in sight. I told her that I would try my absolute best to make sure that she, and her family make it out alive.





As I've said my biggest fear is that one day Amany doesn't respond because something happened to her. It's text messages with her like the one down below that makes my heart drop and validates my fears. In it she describes a near death experience, where she missed a strike by only a matter of moments, to which we later spoke on the phone, and she cried for hours. Truly this is a race against time. The longer she is there, the more the danger grows. These texts highlight the many times she narrowly escaped death. Down even further below are photos of what happened to her home, to which she also escaped death by only a few moments.



This is what is left of her home now




These are Amany's own words below


''I'm Amany from Gaza , a mom of 2 kids
I started this campaign after I lost hope of returning to our homes and lost my home and everything I owned
I had a beautiful, big, clean house to live in with my husband and children, and I was very happy with that I had my job, my husband had too, and we were providing all of our children's needs Now we cannot do anything we became homeless and jobless have no income sources to bring our needs
Kenda , she's my eldest daughter , she supposed to be in the first grade in her School but she lost even her education
She was very excited and happy with going to school every morning
And I was excited about that too but she couldn't complete
There is no longer school or education
Our life turned upside down and we became helpless and suffering haven't another way to get rid of this suffering
But you are our way out ,, we can do it together
All we want is to live in peace and safety with our kids
I have another little child , he's my son Kenan
He's still only 3years and live under danger since 7months
My kids troumatized because of the sounds they are hearing everyday
We faced so many scary moments ..our sweet home destroyed above our heads we miraculously survived after numerous displacement in North Gaza
We fled to southern Gaza looking for safe place
We built a tent ⛺ in Rafah but we couldn't find safety anywhere. we displaced over and over again from place to another to seek safety
We are so tired from displacement ,, we cannot afford more and more displacement .
We suffered alot , the life in tent so difficult
We live there in a polluted zonesurrounded by insects every where ,, we live in unlivable place , there is no home to live in , no food , no clean water , no electricity ,, no life literally
Our kids had hepatitis now and there is no available treatment in Gaza
I'm so afraid of losing my kids or one of my family
All I want is to save my kids and get them a peaceful life

After invasion Rafah we displaced again and Connor find any safe zone to live in we are always moving from place to another with an unlivable tent in this hot weather
We have nothing only the cloths on us and few identifying papers ,,
Every donation ,regardless of size, will make a significant difference in helping us rebuild our life''
