This is Eman a Biotechnologist from Gaza. Asking for help is not easy. It's not easy at all. You have no idea how mentally and emotionally tiring this is. But when thinking that the price is my family's life, getting out of here safely and achieve my doctoral degree dream, it just pushes me more and more to do this until we reach our goal. I'm here as I try to reach out to more people asking for their help to support our family's campaign so we can survive while all you have to do is literally donating even by just the price of your morning coffee or maybe a simple breakfast, So I think I'm not asking for so much. We're really tired of living under these catastrophic conditions for a whole 10 months. Your generosity will not only change our lives but also remind us that even in our darkest hour, we are not alone. https://gofund.me/d597b8e2
since I'm currently dirt broke at this time (and also 15 without a job), I can't donate myself, but I can spread awareness on my platform. it's basic human decency and sympathy to help someone in need.
Eman Zaqout works at Al-Shifa Hospital and Turkish Palestinian Friendship Hospital (TPFH) as a biotechnology specialist, serving cancer patients with compassion, care and skill. along with being a medical professional, Eman is also in the scientific field, conducting research in and out of the Gaza Strip. as a result of her hard work she has been awarded numerous scholarships, one of which is to attend a research project at McGill University in Canada. Eman returned to her home a month before the genocide began in the Gaza Strip.
while also pouring her entire being into her career, Eman is also a mother and wife. she's married to Mahmoud Zaqout, who with she has a 12 year-old son, Rakan, and a 10 year-old daughter, Seba. she used to live in her sweet neighborhood in the north.
this is Eman's neighborhood and family before the genocide...
... and this is what the IDF did to her home. Eman's family was forced out of their home and into unsanitary and undersupplied camps, where they are forced to live in displacement camps along with thousands upon thousands of other Palestinian families who were all subject to the same destruction and malice.
Eman's neighborhood, livelihood and happiness have been shattered, but not her resolve and determination. "The loss of my job, my home, and the comforting presence of my loved ones weighs heavily on my heart," Eman says on her GoFundMe page. "Nevertheless, I refuse to surrender to despair, clinging to the belief that brighter days lie ahead."
in the midst of destruction and despair, Eman is one of 22 women in the developing world who has been awarded an OWSD-PhD fellowship in order to pursue her PhD study in Malaysia. due to the Israeli forces occupying and closing the Rafah borders, however, she is stuck in Gaza and unable to achieve her dream.
she's determined to get her family out and back to safety as well as achieve her dreams, and you can help. with a $40,000 dollar goal, over $14,000 has already been raised to help evacuate Eman and her family.
"Your generosity is not just a donation; it is a beacon of hope in the face of adversity, a lifeline for not only my family but also other displaced families at our camp torn apart by conflict. Your support, whether big or small, will make a significant difference during this challenging time as we lost everything we have, and not just observe from the outside."
let's get Eman's family out of Gaza and help her achieve her dreams!!
