A Beast Beyond Recognition

Hello my friends 🤍🫂

I am Fathi Alhaj from Gaza, Palestine, a sales account manager and father of two beautiful kids, Yamen and Boody. I am the sole provider for my elderly parents, wife, and children. We have lost my father’s house, our home, my car, and my job, and we’ve been displaced for hundreds of days until now during the genocide in Gaza.

In September 2024, after a year of genocide, we also lost our savings, which led us to create this campaign. Ana, who organized my GoFundMe, is my best friend her wonderful family hosted me in Seattle in 2013 when I was representing Palestine in the US during the MEPI program.

Unexpectedly, after October 7th, my life turned upside down. We were forced to become seekers of life amidst all the death, destruction, and darkness in Gaza. We lost everything—our beautiful and successful life, our dreams, and everything we had 💔💔💔💔👨‍👩‍👧‍👧

This campaign has helped us survive until now, meeting our basic needs for food, water, medicine for my elderly parents, and rent for our apartment in our 6th shelter. Our primary goal is to rebuild our lives when we are able to evacuate 🤍🤍🤍🙏

Any help brings us closer to our goal. No matter how small your donation may be, it will make a big difference in our lives. We have almost reached 20%, and with your support, we will achieve our dream of a better life for my kids and family 🫂🫂❤️❤️.
