Five-year-old Mariam,๐with her bright pink backpack and tiny hands clutching a red rose, was ready to head to her KG2 class. It was a Saturday morning, October 7, and Mariam was filled with excitement and pride for reaching the next stage of her education. She wanted to surprise her kind teacher with that little rose. But in an instant, her world โ our world โ was torn apart.
Without warning, the skies filled with the sounds of explosions. The joyful morning turned into a nightmare of dust, fear, and destruction. Her preschool was shattered, her teacherโs life taken, and our neighborhood became a place of ruin. That single day marked the beginning of a relentless assault on Gaza โ a place where childhood dreams, laughter, and innocence were erased in moments.
I am Khaled Ismail, a 41-year-old father, and my wife Rasha is 32. We live in Gaza with our three children. Our youngest, beautiful Mariam๐, is just five years old. Our eldest, Walid, 12, is a boy full of dreams, always hoping to become an inventor. And in the middle, thereโs Karim, our 10-year-old, whose laughter and jokes used to brighten our darkest days.
But the war has left scars that words cannot heal. The day of the first airstrike changed everything. Rubble covered their toys, and black dust filled the air. The sound of my childrenโs cries mixed with the chaos of families running for their lives. We left our home that day, desperately searching for safety. But every step, every shelter, brought only more destruction.
For a year now, we have been displaced, moving from one place to another, only to be met with more violence. Today, our home is nothing more than a frail tent. It offers no shelter from the burning heat of summer or the biting cold of winter. My childrenโs small bodies are battered by this reality โ malnutrition, intestinal infections, heat stroke, and even hepatitis are constant threats.
I have nothing left to change our situation. My children have lost everything. I have lost everything. Their childhood is buried under the rubble, their dreams replaced by survival, and their once-joyful laughter now a faint memory.
I am humbly reaching out to you with a plea to help us escape this endless nightmare. Our dream is simple: to find safety, to give our children a chance at life, to give Mariam and her brothers a future. With every dollar, you offer a glimmer of hope, a step closer to a place where they can finally be children again.
Please, be the reason my family finds peace. Your support, even just one dollar, can make all the difference. Together, we can turn this story of despair into one of hope and resilience. Start today, and be a part of the miracle we need.
Help Mariam๐. Help my family. Let us find a place to live with dignity and hope. Thank you for reading, and thank you for caring.

Why should childhood be crushed for no sin at all?! ๐
What law deprives a child of their simplest rights?! ๐ฅบ
Why must a child leave their school desk, after being an excellent student, to stand for long hours selling under the scorching sun to help their family bear the hardships of this brutal war?! ๐
Our hearts cry for the dark future of our children and their lost childhood in the injustice of this world... ๐ข

Please, open your hearts and help our family, who has been living through the unbearable horrors of war for over a year and three months in Gaza.
We have faced displacement, hunger, pain, the destruction of our home, bombings, thirst, illness, poverty, despair, and an overwhelming fear that never leaves us. We are running out of strength... We need you to be the hero who reaches out and offers us a lifeline.

There are no clothes or covers I cannot provide food and basic needs for my children๐๐
Please help me and donate to save my children๐ต๐ธ๐๐

I am Khaled, a father of Mariam and her two children, living with my small family in northern Gaza. We once dreamed of a peaceful and secure life, but the war destroyed our home, forcing us to live in tents that offer no protection from the winter cold โ๏ธ or the heavy rain ๐ง๏ธ.
Today, my children live amidst the cold, hunger, and fear ๐. My daughter Maryam and her brothers sleep on the ground with no sense of safety, dreaming only of a warm home ๐ and a brighter future ๐.
Every small donation ๐ makes a big difference in our lives. Join us in bringing hope and security back to our family. Together, we can rebuild a future full of peace and warmth ๐.
We urgently need your help to move out of danger zones, protect our children, and build a better life for them.

Last night, ๐ง๏ธ as heavy rain poured and fierce winds howled, ๐ฌ๏ธ and darkness cloaked the world like a heavy curtain, ๐ my children found a small cat by the door of our tent. ๐พ It looked at them with frightened eyes, ๐ seeking the warmth of their little bodies and the safety of their embrace. ๐คฒ Without hesitation, they gently carried it, โค๏ธ brought it into their tattered bed, ๐๏ธ and fed it and gave it water from the little they had. ๐๐ง
The cat slept peacefully among them, ๐ด unaware that it had chosen a cold refuge, โ๏ธ surrounded by shivering little bodies. ๐ฅถ It didnโt know that those who made it feel safe were themselves terrified by the roar of airplanes โ๏ธ and the relentless sounds of bombing. ๐ฅ
In a world of war, where the hearts of grown-ups shrink under the weight of pain, ๐ the hearts of children remain vast. ๐ Their hearts are tender, while the war is harsh... unbearably harsh. ๐

75 Canadian dollarsโฆ ๐ต Thatโs all I received in 12 hours. It may seem like a small amount to some, but to me, it was so much moreโit was a spark of hope โจ and the reason behind the smiles on my childrenโs faces ๐.
