Help my family evacuate GAZA

I am Manal Al-Hafi, 60 years old and a Palestinian from Gaza. I currently reside in Belgium, I have a residence permit A.

Right now I have 5 immediate family members in Gaza, my husband, son-in-law, my daughter as well as her two children, one of whom is 3 years old and the other under a year old.

I am starting a fundraiser to save the lives of my immediate family members, I am their only hope to get out of Gaza to Belgium to be together again. Please help me save my family's lives.

I am unable to work due to my disability, I suffer from diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. Whenever I have a chance to sleep, I wake up right away to see if my family is still alive, but it is hard to tell right away due to the current situation where there is no electricity, connection, fuel, water, or food, which makes my health condition worse, I am worried that I will lose my family any moment. Due to the war that's been going on in the Gaza Strip for 150 days, which has targeted civilians, they're struggling right now, and genocides are happening in Gaza every day.

At the beginning of the war, my family evacuated from the north to the south where they looked for a safe place, then we found out our house had been bombed, and our neighbourhood area had been destroyed. The house we lived in for more than 24 years is gone, and we're homeless now. Currently, there is no safe place for them to live or to go, as of now they are sharing the tiny space with a large number of people.

My husband is an old man and he has prostatitis, hemiplegia, low blood pressure, and nutritional deficiencies from lack of food that make me worry about him. On top of that, after a hard 60 days during this war, my daughter miscarried, and I'm worried about my daughter's kids not getting food or sleep because they don't have the basic necessities of life. Hearing bombs and explosions scares them, so they flee from place to place looking for safety.

They can't find any medication or anything to wear in this cold weather, and they keep getting sick and they don't have access to health care.

Many of my family members have been killed, and yesterday my brother-in-law's granddaughter was killed, and many other members are missing under rubble, we don't know if they are alive or dead.

I have a well-educated, successful family, my husband is retired, my daughter is a school teacher with a bachelor's degree in English translation, and my son-in-law is a paramedic. My family names Khamis n. M. Alhafi Noor k. N. Alhafi Mohammed f. M. Abuqadous Fares m. F. Abuqadous Aser m. F. Abuqadous

Please help me collect the application fees and travel costs for five people.

In order to facilitate my family's evacuation from Egypt and to Belgium, I'm setting up a campaign to raise € 47,849. Here is the breakdown of the funds:

It is estimated that €5,000 will be sufficient to cover the basic needs of my family in Egypt, including their accommodation, food, and other essentials (This equals €1,000 per month).

A total of €31,500

Has to be allocated to cover the expenses associated with obtaining permits to leave Gaza, as well as crossing fees at Rafah, at the Egypt-Gaza border. This amount breaks down to €6,300 per person, including my two brothers' families and my parents' families (5 people).

The cost of travel from Cairo to Belgium is €5,000

. The cost for visa applications and all the costs related to reunion is €5,000. (€1,000 per person).

. A total of € 1,349 will be used to cover transaction fees.

Any donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference to the safety of my family. We'll use the money raised in a transparent and efficient way to make sure every dollar goes to keeping them safe.

Thanks for your support, and I'm grateful for any help you can give me during this difficult time.

Help me reach my goal and provide safety for my family by sharing this campaign with your friends, family, and colleagues

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your kindness and support, as well as your willingness to stand with us in support, as together we can make a real difference and provide safety and security for my family.

Introduction: Greetings, I'm Noor, a journalist. Meet my husband Mahdi and our kids, Sarah and Bassam. Our lives were once filled with gratitude and warmth, a testament to the resilience we cultivated during the nine years we spent navigating the challenges in our City. Today, that resilience is being tested in ways we never could have imagined.

Our Journey: It pains me to admit that we have lost everything. Our cherished home is laden with memories, business, and dreams—all gone. The very essence of our lives has been shattered, forcing us to make the heart-wrenching decision to separate for the safety of our children.

We evacuated our home with a mere bag of clothes before it succumbed to bombings and flames, leaving us with nothing. The scale of our losses is unfathomable, from the grandest to the most minute details.

Separated from my family, I remained in the city to care for my elderly parents and continue my work as a journalist, covering the unfolding events.

Facing Desperation: The horrors we've endured are beyond description. I never envisioned navigating such terrifying and catastrophic circumstances with our children. Our homes were destroyed, and we narrowly escaped death multiple times. Hunger and a lack of medicine became our daily companions, and the sense of terror and abandonment overwhelmed us.

A Difficult Decision: In a difficult decision, we sent our children, Bassam and Sarah, with Mahdi outside of the city. I chose to stay, shouldering the responsibility of caring for my aging parents and continuing my work in reporting.

The Call for Support: Now, we turn to you for help. We've initiated this fundraising campaign to rebuild our shattered lives and provide a secure future for our family. The funds will enable us to reunite our family, ensuring a safe and prosperous life for our children and parents.

The Path to Recovery: Your donations will serve as the foundation for our new beginning. We aim to bring my parents out of the city, offering them respite after months of hardship. Additionally, we plan to rebuild three significant elements: our apartment, our parents' family home, and my bridal store—each a labor of love constructed over the years.

This is a genuine plea for support, born out of a real struggle that no human being should endure. With your help, we can rise above this adversity, rebuild our lives, and create a hopeful future.

A Plea for Humanity: This is not an obligation; we do not seek to exploit your emotions. We share our genuine story, hoping for your support to overcome this challenging chapter in our lives.

With gratitude, Noor, Mahdi, Bassam, and Sarah.
