Emergency: Help Evacuate My Family From GAZA WAR

Dear Humanity,

I'm Haya from Gaza , from a family of 8 people: my parents, two sons, and four daughters (two of them suffer from allergies).

I've witnessed the evidence of the tragedy that has struck our lives in Gaza, where my family and I have survived amidst numerous previous wars. But today, we face the most dangerous and fierce battle in the current war. The urgent need intensifies for us, as we have nothing left and are unable to secure our basic needs such as food, water, and safe shelter.

Here is our story - On October 7th, our lives changed forever, my family and I evacuated from northern Gaza to southern Gaza, hoping to return soon, but it wasn't meant to be. Our home was surrounded, burned, and then completely destroyed, Our home, once a fortress of hope, now lay in ruins, a stark reminder of our shattered dreams.

The night before we left from the north to the south was terrifying. Shelling sounds were everywhere, making a loud noise that felt like it went through our souls. Every explosions shook the ground like earthquakes, sending shockwaves of fear through our trembling bodies. filling us with fear. The air smelled of destruction and blood, making it hard to breathe. When dawn came, we saw the devastation around us, realizing our home was now a symbol of loss and despair.

We ran into the streets and with each step we took into the unknown streets, we felt as if we were plunging deeper into the abyss of our shattered existence, leaving behind everything we own in our home: Clothes, important official documents, the car, and literally it's almost everything - the enormity of our loss weighed heavily upon us.

Our home it was where we found hope, safety, and made precious memories. Losing it felt like losing years of our lives, leaving us adrift amidst the wreckage of our shattered existence.

A brief video depicting the devastation that struck our home and our entire neighborhood in Gaza.

Desperate Plea: Escaping Gaza's Allergy Nightmare

I, Haya, suffer from severe allergy to penicillin-derived medications, and my sister, Amal, also suffers from severe allergies to medications from my family such as Paracetamol and Ibuprofen.

These allergies create a deep sense of fear and anxiety for us, as we live in a constant state of tension and fear of anything that may require a visit to the hospital. We fear being given inappropriate medications due to the unavailability of suitable treatments in Gaza because of war or lack of awareness and not informing the doctor of our allergies, which could lead to serious consequences threatening our lives.

MY Father Income

Our dreams are heading towards oblivion in the labyrinth of an uncertain future

My story, along with my siblings, represents a united team of four individuals, three of whom are skilled programmers and one graphic designer. We work as freelancers in the world of freelancing.

As for my younger sister, she is a student studying at the College of Architecture. She has always carried a big dream in her heart, a dream of being part of changing Gaza, of making it more beautiful and better. She looked forward to the day when she would receive her degree and start building this dream. But the beginning of the war changed everything. The destruction of infrastructure and universities cast shadows of despair over her dreams.

When I think of my brother in Belgium, I can't help but feel deep sadness. He has been suffering from unbearable anxiety and insomnia since the outbreak of the war. Sleep eludes him at night, and his physical and mental health collapses under the weight of these heavy burdens, negatively affecting his performance at work. Problems and challenges pile up in front of him without the slightest opportunity for rest.

We all feel psychological pressure and extreme anxiety. The war hasn't been limited to external attacks but has deeply infiltrated our daily lives. We search among the rubble for a little safety and the basic resources for survival. Every day comes with a new challenge that we must overcome.

As we sway amidst the rubble of shattered dreams, our souls wrestle and our hearts beat strongly challenging the ravages of war.

Our parents earnestly seek a way to rescue us from this hell, feeling the heavy responsibility for every moment we spend under the shadows of fear and destruction. They dream of a safe place where they can build for us a better future, filled with security and hope, for we deserve life in all its meanings of comfort and peace.

Perhaps this fundraising campaign represents a light in the midst of darkness, it is indeed the only hope we cling to firmly.

I appeal to the world as a whole to hear my cry and the mournful cry of my family in Gaza. We need the helping hand that reaches out to wipe our tears and build a bridge to safety.

Your donation is not just a donation; it's an opportunity to rebuild life and brighten a better tomorrow. Be part of our hopeful story, for we need your hand to start anew.

The purpose of the fundraising campaign

The goal of this fundraising campaign is to rescue my family - my parents, my siblings, and me - through the Rafah Crossing to Egypt, which currently requires $5000 per person. This campaign is our only chance to stay alive, and I humbly request your assistance at this critical time. I will provide you with a comprehensive breakdown of the expenses, committing to transparency and clarity.

Hello..!

I am Osama Al-Anqar and my wife's name is Rana Raed Al-Anqar. We have a little girl. We used to live in our house in the Shuja'iyya

neighborhood. We used to live in peace and security and I had a job, but the war came and took everything from me,

This was our life before the war, and now it is like this

first of all my brother Mahmoud, who was martyred in the bombing of the Baptist Hospital. He left behind his children and wife, and my brother Ahmed, whose front leg was amputated in the same bombing. I lost my house, my family's house, and my job. Now we have become homeless, moving from one place to another. We are gripped by fear, terror, and hunger. My daughter suffers from extreme fear and panic, and suffers from lack of food and skin diseases due to the lack of water and cleanliness.

My daughter before the war

And now, because of war, malnutrition, fear, and diseases, it has become like this

We are in dire need of your help. We call on you to fund this fund to save my family and provide safe shelter, food, drink, and health care. Your donation is no matter what can happen to us in our lives. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your support means more.

My brother, before and after the war

This isn’t a story from the past —

This is happening right now. And I’m living it every day in Gaza.

For 645 days, the war hasn’t stopped.

Soldiers storm homes, families are torn apart, the sick are left to die.

I’m Hani, from Gaza.

My father is seriously ill and urgently needs treatment —

but there are no hospitals, no medicine, no way out of this siege.

Every passing moment threatens our lives.

If these words reached you, please don’t ignore them.

i don't get you ironwood stans

like, crwby pulled off one of the coolest narrative tricks ever, and you lot are bitching about it.

from the get go, james ironwood was a fascist little cunt. did we just collectively forget that he usurped ozpin from his council appointment in vale? as in he (an outsider to vale, from atlas) messed with the internal politics of another nation. that's some major 'things better go my way or else'. and his way is always, always a military build up and presence.

which then contributed to the fall of beacon. there was already a two pronged assault going on, what with the grimm and the white fang, but a third unexpected prong from ironwood's tin soldiers is definitely not helpful.

so from the beginning, crwby introduced ironwood's flaw- his my way or the highway mentality, his tendency to crash out. and then they continue to do their narrative trickery- by having jacques shnee be his harshest critic.

not that anyone could be a jacques schnee fan- but the dude was not wrong. he's in it for his own profit margins, but he does call out ironwood's iron fisted rule over atlas and mantle. he does call out his dictatorial tendencies.

and so, the fndm, who likes weiss schnee, and hates jacques schnee is more likely to dismiss these critiques. we're more likely to chalk it up to his lien-grubbing tendencies. this was wrong of us, but so effective. it furnishes us with information about james ironwood, but since that info comes from a poisoned well, we tend to dismiss it. that's so good, to obfuscate and deliver critical character info like that is insanely talented. i mean, by the brothers, the tree and the smith, if i could write like that, i'd call myself talented.

another thing they did was have james ironwood overcome the character flaw of ozpin. he shared info with his subordinates, expanded the circle of trust that ozpin failed to do, time and again. and since we, the audience focused on ozpin's critical fails for the last 3 volumes, seeing james casually overcome this flaw tricks the audience into trusting him. because he overcame a flaw! unfortunately, it just wasn't his flaw to overcome.

remember, his flaw was his fascistic tendencies. his way or the highway. or, y'know, shooting mouthy kids. you can't just overcome some other character's flaw and call that character development. those writers' were obfuscating so hard, they pulled the wool over our eyes completely.

and you ironwood fans fell for it! hook, line, and sinker! i'mma be honest, i was cheering for him too in series 7, but halfway through, you were supposed to remember that he didn't overcome his own character flaw but ozpin's. and as much as we would like to, we can't just fob off our character development to others. you have to do it yourself. and ozpin does. he comes back, apologizes and shares pertinent information.

crwby successfully pulled off an incredible narrative trick. and you're crying about it?? that's so weird. you cheer for this shit. hats off to a trick well done. this is writing on steroids.

**"Not a single day has been ordinary.

Every one of these 643 days of war has been a test of life —

sudden death, constant displacement, and hunger we wear like clothing.

We are not living — we are enduring.

No safe home, no available medicine, no moment of rest.

And yet, we’re still here.

Every day, we carry the weight of exhaustion and keep going.

Not because we’re extraordinary,

but because something inside us whispers: don’t give up.

These drawings are not art —

they are scenes from our faces, our broken sleep,

our feet split from running,

from a mother who lost her child and couldn’t even find a grave.

If there’s anything worth telling,

it’s the patience no one saw — and the dignity we never abandoned, despite everything.

Don’t pity us.

Understand."**

I am Mahmoud Hamam. Most of those in this application have heard my name or know me because I frequently publish about my family in Gaza, but now I will explain to you completely who I am.

About Mahmoud: A 21-year-old engineering student from Gaza. I am ambitious and passionate. I love my education and my work. I have a beautiful, conservative, and friendly family.

I was working as a freelancer before October 7th, but with the war I lost my job and left my home heading to the southern Gaza Strip. I lived the worst months of my life searching for my life between transporting water, feeding my family and escaping death. I wasted two years of my life without a goal, just escaping death. I got my expenses and my family’s expenses from your donations, but now I am searching for my dream again in these circumstances.

I created the Isnad initiative, which aims to help students in Gaza who lost their dreams, just like me! Today I am proud to have helped more than 70 students complete their education!! But today! I work in the initiative for 6 hours a day, but I can't stand on my feet after 3 hours. Why? Because famine killed us in Gaza. I feel nauseous quickly and I can't complete my day unless I get the nutritional supplement designated for children!! Can you imagine that?

Famine has filled the sector and prices are very high. My campaign has $30,000. I have been collecting this amount for two years and only $5,000 is left to reach my goal. I am really exhausted and hungry. The only thing left for me is you guys. Please allocate $10 for me! To give up some sweets and cigarettes today in exchange for providing me with some bread, is that possible?

This is the time to show your sympathy for Gaza. Famine is deadly.
