A heartfelt thank you to the generous donor, "Nora M" Whether male or female, this person undoubtedly has a kind and noble heart. Their generous donation of 150 CAD was a lifeline for my family and the largest donation we've received in over a month and a half.
This anonymous donor brought smiles to our faces and hope to our hearts.
How I wish I could meet them to express my gratitude in person and tell them how much their kindness has impacted our lives.
My friends, I urge you to share my story and encourage others to contribute to saving my family. Every helping hand is a new ray of hope for us.
Maryam's Family πβ₯οΈπ΅πΈπ
Five-year-old Mariam,πwith 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 β our world β 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 teacherβs life taken, and our neighborhood became a place of ruin. That single day marked the beginning of a relentless assault on Gaza β 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 Mariamπ, 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, thereβs 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 childrenβs 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 childrenβs small bodies are battered by this reality β 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 Mariamπ. Help my family. Let us find a place to live with dignity and hope. Thank you for reading, and thank you for caring.
For the past nine days, I have only received 15 CAD... I created a donation link to raise some money so I can escape Gaza and save my family from the horrors of war π. Unfortunately, I feel like I'm a bit unlucky... In two months, I've only managed to raise an amount that equals just 6% of the desired goal. π
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 βοΈ or the heavy rain π§οΈ.
Today, my children live amidst the cold, hunger, and fear π. My daughter Maryam and her brothers sleep on the ground with no sense of safety, dreaming only of a warm home π and a brighter future π.
Every small donation π 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 π.
We urgently need your help to move out of danger zones, protect our children, and build a better life for them.

When we witness these heartbreaking scenes π, we are deeply moved by the compassion shown by so many around the world π. Truly, our hearts ache, and our eyes fill with tears π’ as we feel the weight of our reality. From the depths of our hearts β€οΈ, we thank everyone who stands in solidarity with us π€, who empathizes with our cause π€², who offers us help π, and who reaches out a hand to save us π.
--------------------------------------
And for these hearts, I write πΏ.. Your support can change so much. Imagine bringing a smile to the face of a frightened child π₯Ή or being the reason another person, sleeping in a tent with small trembling limbs from the cold, gets to buy a blanket or clothes after your help π§£π§€.

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.
