My name is Rana, and I am from Gaza. I am a mother of four children. Due to the war in Gaza, I lost my job, my husband also lost his job, and we lost our home and our source of income.
Now that the war has stopped, everything has been destroyed, and we are left with nothing.
My children and I are trying to survive with very limited resources. I am hoping to rebuild our home, help my husband return to work, and start our lives again.
I kindly ask for your support and donations for me and my children, so we can live with dignity and rebuild our lives and our children’s future.

Here, my children, husband, and I are in Gaza We cannot live because we do not have the necessities of life. Everything is expensive, and we do not have any source of money. There are no salaries, no jobs, and no source of income.
Bombing and destruction surround us from all sides.
Life has come to a standstill. Everything is very expensive.
A kilo of flour costs 20$, a kilo of sugar 15$,
Oil 20$, and vegetables are also very expensive. We cannot even make a salad; it costs a plate 30$.
Life has become very difficult.😭😭😭
There is no cooking fuel. We use wood, which is also very expensive.
The tent has deteriorated and is no longer habitable due to environmental factors.
Hello my friend I feel frustrated and hopeless After the ceasefire was achieved, I went to Gaza to my workplace to see what had happened to it. It was completely destroyed, there was nothing left of it.
It cost me a lot of money to build it, and I only used and worked on it for three months. Then the war broke out and it was completely destroyed. Please help me, donate even a little to rebuild it and rebuild it so that we can start again.
Your small donation will help save my family and save me
Donate a little so that I can rebuild and work in the center in order to get money and so that I can buy food and clothes for them
The Occupation has systematically destroyed every social infrastructure that makes civil society possible, whether it be healthcare, food systems, or education. They've targeted schools, hospitals, businesses, and every person who supports their community through their profession.
Rana and Ahmed (@ranafam2) are educators from Khan Younis, with Rana as a statistics professor at the Islamic University of Gaza and Ahmed as the principal of his school: both institutions have now been destroyed.
Palestinians have survived occupation for well over a century now, and they will remain steadfast, but they need your support.
Even with the ceasefire, resources are still limited and expensive. The weekly allowance for basic provisions like baby formula and flour is about $1000. Rana is also anticipating additional costs for baby formula, clothes, and natal care as she's eight months pregnant and expecting soon.
Finally with the ceasefire, Rana is hoping to evacuate with her family altogether. The cost of evacuation per person ranges from $5000 to $7000. If Rana gives birth before she can evacuate, that puts the total anticipated cost at $49,000 (5 children, 2 adults).
As of today (1/23), we are at:
$8185/$100,000
$0/$1500 <- Weekly provisions
$0/$2400 <- Daily goal to reach $49,000 in three weeks
Donate here.
I know these are overwhelming numbers, but if every person who shared this post donated $5, we can get them to safety.
👉👉👉Please don't ignore me and look at me with compassion‼️‼️

My friend, I tried hard to summarize what happened to me during the entire period of war through this video.
My husband's educational centers were completely destroyed, leaving us with nothing😭😭😭
Please sympathize with me and my family 💔💔 and help me by donating to my family. Any donation, even if it is small, will help my family and my children.

Rana (@ranafam4) has reached out to me on the behalf of herself and her family.
Rana is a mother of four children. Before the war Rana was a professor with a masters degree, and her husband established language training centers.
Now they are forced to live in a test and are suffering from famine. Rana cannot find enough food to ease any of their hunger.
Not only are they starving, deprived of food, but they haven't had a chance to eat vegetables or meat in months.
Trivial as it may sound, that is a code to just how bad it is.
It has reached a point that one of Rana's daughters has been hospitalized because of the lack of food. There is a good chance that she might be sent there again if she doesn't get the nutrition she needs.
My name is Ahmed Abdul-Jawad and here's my story.
In t… Imadeddin Shaheen needs your support for Donate to help rebuild home &
I ask that you donate for multiple reasons.
- Rana and her children need food urgently. Famine is an extremely real threat that has, and will, kill many in Palestine. I refuse to let it be anyone in Rana's family.
- Rana's husband, Ahmed, is trying to raise the funds to rebuild what was lost because of the occupation. He wants to rebuild the language centers he had established before the war. Rebuilding the centers would help rebuild the lives they had.
- Any other funds can help Rana's family be supported in other ways. Clothes, medicine, tents: all things that are in short supply. All things they might need badly in the future.
Along with donating, please share.
Repost, make a new post, cross platform share, etc. This makes sure Rana can get a more stable flow of income and prevent major stalling on her fundraiser.
It also helps spread her fundraiser to others who might not have seen it otherwise.
Rana has reached out to be on a different account (@ranafam3) asking again for help.
A goal had been set to try and get Rana 1000$ to help cover the costs of survival for herself and her family. Though the time has passed to meet that goal by the end of that week, it does not mean we can't meet it still.
The costs of living still continue to increase day by day as resources become more limited and hard to access. Things like clothes, tents, medicine, food, and even water can cost tens of dollars to obtain. Sometimes even costing over 100$ for the simplest items.
All verification is on Rana's Tumblr account(s), so I highly encourage you seek out her pages if you want to see proof of verification.
I still ask that you donate to Rana and share her story. The most basic means of support are at times the most useful, and the most helpful. A little from a lot of people goes farther than a lot of us might think. Thank you for reading Rana's story.
You once had a warm, safe home filled with love and comfort. Your children laughed and played with their favorite toys, cuddled in their cozy beds, and wore clothes that kept them warm through the seasons. But now, all of it—your home, your children’s comfort, and your family’s security—has been reduced to nothing but memories.

For Rana Abdul-Jawad, a wife and mother of four from Gaza, this is her heartbreaking reality. Her beautiful home, once a haven of joy, was destroyed, leaving her and her children in a torn and worn-out tent. They now face the unrelenting cold of winter with no warm clothes, no covers, and no reprieve. Her children shiver through each moment, vulnerable to illness from the freezing temperatures, and struggle to survive the harsh conditions.
Recently, the winter rain storms have flooded their fragile tent, soaking everything inside. Rana has spent entire nights desperately trying to stabilize it against the wind and rain, fearing it might collapse entirely. Despite her efforts, the tent cannot properly shield her family from the bitter cold or the relentless rain.
Image: Rana's tent, flooded with rain and barely holding up under the heavy winter rain storms.
Rana’s family needs your help. The soaring prices caused by war have made basic necessities like clothes and blankets unaffordable.
Rana’s plea is simple yet profound: “Please, save my children.”
Images: Rana's beloved children.
Your donation, no matter how small, can bring warmth, comfort, and hope to this family. It can mean the difference between enduring the cold and finding safety and security in these desperate times. Let’s stand together to help Rana’s children find warmth and peace again.

I am Rana from Gaza, a mother of four children who had a beautiful home🥺, a wonderful life🥺, warm clothes🥺, comfortable beds🥺, and beautiful toys.😭💔
Suddenly😱😱 their lives were upended, their warm, beautiful house was destroyed😭, their toys were destroyed😭, their beds were burned, and broken.💔😭
Now they live in a worn-out tent💔❤️🩹. They do not have covers or clothes😭. They suffer from the cold every moment🥺. They suffer from illness due to the lack of warmth and the cold weather😭.
I do not have the money to bring them clothes because their prices are very expensive💔😭.
We are in the month of winter and this winter is very harsh.💔😭 The sky rains and we sink to the ground🥺. Last night it was... The most difficult nights, the tent was soaked with rain and the worn, torn covers were wet😭😭We spent the whole night trying to stabilize the tent 💔💔😭😭so that it would not fly away from the wind and storms🥺
The Occupation has systematically destroyed every social infrastructure that makes civil society possible, whether it be healthcare, food systems, or education. In an attempt at genocide, they've targeted schools, hospitals, businesses, and every person who supports their community through their profession.
Rana and Ahmed (@ranafam2) are educators from Khan Yunis (Northern Gaza Strip), with Rana as a statistics professor at the Islamic University of Gaza and Ahmed as the principal of his school: both institutions have now been destroyed.
Palestinians have survived occupation for well over a century now, and they will remain steadfast, but they need your support.
In my conversation with Rana, she told me:
"Providing food and drink for my children right now is impossible. A bag of flour costs 1000 shekels ($272) and milk, for my little girl, is 100 shekels ($28). This is the least of what we need.
As for the tent, today my children froze from the cold because the tent is very, very, very worn out. And we drowned when it rained for a while. We couldn't sleep.
Please, if you know someone who can donate to me, I need it very, very much so that I can at least survive."
To help them get through this week, we must raise at least $1000 to cover the cost of flour and milk. The long term goal is $100,000.
Imagine being a mother of four, forced to flee your home again and again, each time leaving behind more of the life you once knew. Now, you find yourself living in a small, makeshift tent, without access to clean water, sufficient food, or medical care.
Now imagine your little daughter, sick with an intestinal infection caused by the polluted water you’re all forced to drink just to survive. You're doing everything you can to save her...but the medical bills are so high, and your family can barely afford to eat.
This is reality for Rana ( @ranafam2 ), a a 37-year-old mother of four from Gaza. With a master’s degree in statistics and a husband who dedicated his life to teaching English, their lives were upended by relentless war. Her husband's educational centers, which once provided hope and opportunity to their community, were destroyed. Their home was reduced to rubble, and now they live in a small, overcrowded tent, struggling to survive.
As a mother, Rana battles lung infections caused by cooking over open fires due to the unaffordable cost of cooking gas. Her children are deprived of education, living in constant fear of disease and epidemics that plague the overcrowded camps. With no access to basic necessities like clean water, food, or clothing, their lives hang by a thread.
Despite these hardships, Rana fights tirelessly to protect her children and give them a chance at life. She dreams of escaping the horrors of war, ensuring her children can grow up safe, healthy, and educated.
Rana's heartbreaking struggle continues to worsen as her youngest daughter, who is under two years old, battles a severe intestinal infection caused by polluted water and a lack of proper nutrition and vitamins. The little girl is critically ill, but the family has no access to medical care or essential medicines to treat her. The scarcity of basic supplies like diapers only adds to the despair, as the family remains trapped in a cycle of illness and poverty in the overcrowded tent camps.
Epidemics are spreading rapidly through the camp due to the unsanitary conditions, leaving Rana and her children more vulnerable than ever. Rana, as any good mother in her situation would, feels hopeless and frustrated as she watches her daughter's health deteriorate.
Your help can provide the life-saving medical care, food, and clean water that Rana’s daughter so desperately needs. Every contribution brings hope to this family and a chance for their children to escape the devastating impacts of war.
Please consider donating to their campaign and sharing their story to help save Rana’s daughter and ensure a brighter future for this family.

Save my children from the Gaza war
My name is Rana, I am 37 years old, and I hold a master’s degree in statistics
I am married and have 4 children
Two girls 👧👧 and two boys 🧑🧑, their ages (12 / 5 /5 /2 )
My husband works as a teacher and has a group of educational centers for teaching English in Gaza, Khan Yunis, and Rafah
I live in Gaza
At the beginning of the war, our educational center, Gaza branch, was destroyed and bulldozed.
It had been opened one month before the start of the war. The war on Gaza continued, and I am still residing in my home despite the danger and threat, but I left my home on 24/1/2024 because the Israeli army requested the evacuation of the city of Khan Yunis, and for fear for my children and my husband, I went to the city of Rafah, the safe place, as the army says, and I lived in a narrow and small place.
Iam and four children, my husband, and a group of displaced people suffered from many diseases and epidemics due to lack of food. And lack of water
Then the threats began to the city of Rafah, so I left for Hamad Town, a safe area, as the Israeli army said about it, and I stayed there with my relatives, and on February 25, the second educational center, Khan Yunis branch, was completely destroyed and blown up 😭😭
On 3 March , the army besieged Hamad Town, and Iam and my children, and my husband left under gunfire and the sound of shells✈️✈️ ✈️ And the fire belts🚀🚀 We left in the middle of the night on foot and continued walking for a whole day while tanks and soldiers surrounded us and we were displaced for the third time.
We returned to the city of Rafah again, but without any of the necessities of life , no clothes, no bedding, no luggage 🧥🧥
On 13 March , I received information that my house was completely destroyed. My home, my dreams, and my memories were destroyed 😭😭😭 I became homeless 😭😭😭
On 5 January , 2024, we left Rafah after the army threatened it, and we went out to Al-Mawasi and lived in a tent. Now I live in a small tent in a camp full of diseases🤧🤧 and epidemics🤮🤮
The last branch of the educational centers, the Rafah branch, was destroyed
Now I live in a tent
I fight for a living We no longer have a source of income other than aid and assistance, which are of no use
My children were deprived of education because of the war. They are now without schools
Please Help my children to escape from the hell of war in Gaza. Please help me to leave Gaza, educate my children and protect them from diseases and epidemics.
