Suleiman. I bear the greatest burden for my family — I am their main provider. Here in Gaza, we live on the remains of hope. We need you to extend your hands so that we can continue living.

Right now, I — along with many others in Gaza — am living in tents made only of cloth. These tents cannot protect us from fire, shrapnel, insects, or the scorching sun. Diseases spread easily among us, and we cannot even treat ourselves because of the lack of medical supplies. Can you imagine?

There is also a severe shortage of food, water, and electricity. And when food is available, prices are so high that neither I nor my family can afford to buy it.

Before the war, we had everything — a small farm, citrus and fruit trees, greenhouses, olive groves, wheat, barley, water wells, homes, and electricity generators. But all of it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

We pray for compensation, for relief to come soon, and for this genocide and famine to end — not just for me, but for all the poor, hungry people of Gaza.

I’ll stop here… I don’t know what more to say or what else I can do.

Thank you for reading my story. Thank you for giving me a few minutes of your time.

Your kindness could be the light in someone’s darkest hour. 💔

Donated a bit, I’m so sorry that this has happened to you, I know thoughts and prayers don’t go far, but let it be known that I will not forget your story and I wish you and all of your family the best. Feel free to keep in touch if possible, I fully understand if it isn’t

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. What you’ve done is not little it is a lot. Your humanity, your support, and your compassion mean everything to us. I pray that God blesses you with great wealth and abundance.

I have heard of and seen the effects of the brutal terrorism of the USA and the "State of Israel". I'm really sorry to hear your story Suleiman. I am not able to support financially at the moment. But I hope that all your needs will be met. I hope that your family will remain safe. I hope that the genocide will end sooner rather than later. Remain hopeful and strong, my brother.

Your words mean more than you can imagine, my brother. Just knowing that people like you see the truth and care gives us strength to keep going. Thank you for your compassion, your solidarity, and your prayers. May justice and peace prevail one day, and may you always be safe and blessed. 🤍❤️

I donated as much as I could, friend. I am deeply sorry for the situation that you and your people are in and have been in for decades. I hope that someday this too shall pass and Palestine will be free. 🇵🇸
