My name is Aboud, and I am 19 years old from Gaza City, Palestine.

Before the war, I was a student with dreams like any other young person — to study, work, and build a future for my family. But today, my reality has completely changed.

Since the beginning of this war, we have lost everything.

Our home was destroyed, my family of eight has been displaced many times, and we now live with almost nothing — no stable shelter, no food security, no electricity, and no safe place to go. My brother was killed, and his body remains under the rubble for months. Every day is a struggle to survive.

I am not asking for much — only for help to keep my family alive.

Your donation, no matter how small, can help us buy food, clean water, and basic needs to survive through these dark days. I dream of rebuilding my life, continuing my studies, and living in peace one day.

Your kindness gives us hope that humanity still exists, even in the darkest times.

Thank you from my heart. ❤️
