<div>Dear friends and people of goodness,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Lubabah Bakht from Ottawa, Canada and I've launched this GoFundMe to help my friend, Hasan Shakshak and his family, who have been displaced numerous times and are now in at the Deir Al Balah in the Gaza Strip. Hasan has 3 small children who are now 7 years old, 5 years old, and 2 years old. Witnessing his family struggle in these harsh conditions has been heartbreaking for him and his wife. The conditions are worsening daily.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Shakshak family were living in Jabalia, northern Gaza and were forced to leave to become refugees when the strikes began in October 2023. His family faced four evacuations, moving from Jabalia to Khan Younis, then to Alaqsa University, to Rafah and now Deir Al Balah which is being bombarded every day. As innocent civilians, they've endured significant hardships, and leaving them without the means to afford basic necessities and let alone, little to no security. The impact of not being able to secure basic necessities is impacting the children's health. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Currently homeless and residing in a tent, their family lacks food, water, gas, diapers, hygiene products. They are forced to live in miserable unsanitary, living conditions in tents and evacuated areas with heavy bombs dropping all around everyday! Hasan's daughters, Mira and Aisha, have prevalent skin diseases. The children need proper treatment for the pimples and ulcers on their skin. The cost of groceries is very high. The children need your heartfelt donations for their parents to buy them fruits and vegetables to strengthen their immune systems and help their bodies overcome the prevalent diseases. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The cost of groceries is very high. Shampoo used to cost $4 and now it costs $44. Body soap used to be 80 cents. Now it's $14.  
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hasan wants to move his family away from Deir Al Balah because it is not safe. To hire a truck to carry his family and their belongings will cost $500. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hassan lost his mother, Ayesha Shakshak, in this war too who was diagnosed with cancer in September 2023. Due to the lack of proper medication and medical tests, his mother passed away in February 2024 after being displaced 3 times herself. The situation has become very dire for them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Life in Gaza has become completely unlivable and we are seeking help for basic needs of shelter, food, water, medical care and safety. We need your help!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My goal is to raise enough funds to help Hassan Shakshak and his young family in Gaza to get them the money they need for humanitarian assistance and to evacuate and relocate to safety if possible due to the crisis.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please take the time to donate generously and share this fundraiser widely to family and friends.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your contribution will make a lasting impact, allowing them to aspire to a life similar to others around the world. Your generosity can help this young family overcome these challenges and bring hope to them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for considering and standing with the Shakshak family. May you be blessed for all your much appreciated donations, support and prayers!
</div>

Help the Shakshak family in Gaza

<div>Hello everyone,
</div>
<div>My name is Sulafa, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my family in Gaza. We are facing extreme hardship due to the ongoing war, and we have been displaced from our home. We are in urgent need of food, medicine, and shelter. Your support, no matter how small, will make a huge difference in helping us survive these difficult times.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any type of help would be deeply appreciated.
</div>
<div>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
</div>

<div>My name is Bianca, M. I am helping Tala and the Taleb family raise funds for their displacement and severe issues created from the ongoing conflict in the Middle Eastern region. I am from Tampa, Florida.
</div>
<div>I am a friend of Tala's.

<div>Hello, My name's Tala from Gaza. My family is living in very difficult circumstances in Gaza during this war, as they were displaced from their home on North Gaza to the South, 5 times.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81040217_1723531268889635_r.jpeg" width="100%" />
<div>My father was killed in cold blood in this war and the life became more difficult and meaningless after his death. Furthermore, my family doesn't want to live in Gaza with this painful memory.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />

<div>Now my family lives in a tent unfit for human habitation and in harsh humanitarian conditions.
</div>
<div>I am currently facing illness and Hepatitis from these conditions. My mother faces high blood pressure, a herniated disc and other health issues.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81040217_1723531400816047_r.jpeg" width="100%" />
<div>My family consist of 3 brothers and 1 sister.
</div>
<div>My mother has 3 children who want to complete their education (Maisara, Adnan and Tala). They were left with nothing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My brother Muhammed spends his time in lines of food, water and fire for cooking. Their life became tiring and exhausting. Muhammed is trying to recover from intestinal and Hepatitis infection due to the environmental pollution in the displacement camp.
</div>
<div><br />

<div>Access to medical facilities and healthcare are highly limited, almost non existent and extremely inflated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Fund will go to passport/Visa's, Tala's medical treatment, medical treatments for Tala's family and any resources for safe and clean living conditions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Fatherless, homeless, jobless.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your help will support my family in this tiring ordeal.
</div>
<div>I am making a sincere plea.

</div>
<div>Hello,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Bahaa, a father and a husband, I am 30 years old, I worked all these years to build my small house for me and my family
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am writing to you my sad and tragic story from beloved Gaza, one of thousands of stories. I am Bahaa Ahmed Ayesh, a young man who grew up building dreams in a house with my family, I achieved part of my dreams, as I married my life partner in this world and the hereafter, and I became a father to a child in the war and the conditions were very harsh
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On October 7, our lives changed and turned upside down 100 degrees, we left the house due to the intensity of the bombing and fear without taking anything with us in the hope of returning to the warmth of our home the next day. We are suffering from hunger, fatigue, pain, loss and demolition, we could not bear more than that, and we have nothing.. During this difficult journey that we lived, we suffered from displacement, bombing, destruction and a severe shortage of supplies, food and water. We suffered a lot, we were bringing water on foot from long distances, but it was not enough. We are tired. Every day that passes, a new story of pain is written, in which the features of sadness and separation are drawn. Hope becomes a thin thread, woven by patience and faith in a better future. But despite all this, souls continue to pulsate with life, striving for peace, and searching for a moment of joy in the midst of darkness.
</div>
<div>We live these difficult days with their worst details in the remains of crowded houses, burnt tents, worn clothes, spoiled food, and polluted water, after we used to live in our homes, the warm, reassuring palaces of our family. We had a life, dreams, pictures, and many memories, but it is enough for us that we have a just Lord who writes the reward of the thorn if it strikes us, so how about the tragedies, oppression, betrayal, fear, and displacement that we are going through!! I hope that Gaza, my family, and the friends I left behind are well, and that this war ends....
</div>
<div>Please share this campaign widely to help us achieve our goal and bring my family to safety. Your support means more than you can imagine and I am so grateful for any help you can give during this difficult time. Please do not read this as a story of tragedy, I am here to ask you to prevent further tragedy and help us start our lives over. I am here to ask for your help, not your sympathy, to ask you to take action whether it is a donation or to share this with everyone you know who can help. Please read this with your heart and take action as if it were your family, your mother and your siblings. Your donation, no matter how small, will make an impact. You will help get my family to safety. The money will be used transparently and every dollar will go towards securing our evacuation. Please donate and help me and my family and my little boy who came into this world in a difficult situation and a great injustice to a little boy in Gaza and share my story with those who can. We are in desperate need of your donations and help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The war continues...
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>New doors of suffering are opening and we hope to overcome this pain.
</div>
<div>Please help my family, my wife and my little girl..
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The proof of good is like the one who does it..

<div>I am writing to you now, and more than 287 days have passed since the heinous, bloody war in the Gaza Strip. My family and I have suffered devastation, loss, suffering, and the constant and dangerous threat to their lives due to the indiscriminate bombing targeting civilians. Our house was bombed, and it is with great sadness and pain that the rest of my family must persevere to preserve their lives and overcome the difficulty of meeting daily needs for water and food amid the miserable conditions they face. In search of a last refuge inside the Gaza Strip, which is under constant bombardment, but the current miserable conditions prevent us from achieving safety, stability, and the right to live in peace.

</div>
<div>We were a very beautiful couple. Our beautiful life had begun and we thought about having a child to fill our lives with joy and happiness and a child bearing my name. I traveled abroad to have a laser operation on my eyes and I was happy to have an operation after a long time. It succeeded, thank God, and I am in the best health and well-being now. I received the news of my wife that she is pregnant. My beautiful child, and it was the most beautiful news I had ever received in my life. I hoped to meet my child in the best condition, but he came into the world in a very, very difficult situation. I returned to lovely Gaza and my beautiful country a week before the war, and I was happy. Then the joy turned into tragedy. Our lives were destroyed, and we witnessed five wars. But we have never witnessed anything of such cruelty. We could not close our eyes for a long time due to intense fear and crying. We fled and escaped death, but unfortunately the genocidal war continues until now

<div>Obtaining potable water in the place of my displacement is a battle that I fight on a daily basis and with us it never ends. I am tired of walking a distance of up to two kilometers back and forth from drinking water, the hardship that I endure during the hours-long journey to fill water, whether covering a long distance or standing in line, daily fatigue. It is much easier than the pain of diseases that affect the family from polluted water

<div>Even then, it’s not enough.

<div>He cries for milk, for bread, for anything… and I sit there, helpless, hugging him, praying.

<div>I never thought I would reach this point.

<div>But today, I have nothing left but my voice… and hope that someone out there will hear us.
