$43 to keep a gazan child warm for the winter!

hello everyone! i'll keep things brief. our relief aid coordinator on the ground, ahmed, would like to buy winter clothes for the children in the two refugee camps he works in.

the estimated cost for one child's winter coat is $43, and there are 30 children in the camp in need of clothing, bringing us to a total goal of $1300. one of our team members will be contributing $100 and covering the bank fee, which lowers the amount we need to fundraise to $1200.

this is the second of 3 campaigns, aiming to raise $400 to buy clothes for 10 children.

if 30 people contributed $40, or 60 people contributed $20, we would be able to make our total goal in no time!

thank you all for your generosity! we couldn't do this without you.
