The effects of the war on Gaza are still present in the details of daily life, especially in the lives of those who lost their homes and found no alternative but tents.
I am the mother of a child born during the war, specifically at the height of the bombing, amidst the sounds of explosions, fear, and insecurity. Today, two years later, we still live in a tent.
Living in a tent is not life, but a daily struggle to secure the most basic rights.
Pure drinking water is not easily available. We have to carry it from long distances, and we may wait for hours to get enough water for one day.
Food is also not always available, and we often lack basic ingredients. Sometimes I don't have anything to feed my child and have to wait for aid or donations to arrive.
There is no electricity, no place to shower, and no toilets.
We are not looking for luxury, but for the bare minimum of dignity: a roof over our heads, clean water, and enough food.
Please, any donation, no matter how small, will help us in our war for survival.
A mother's plea: Help us survive and protect my child who was born in war.
My name is Sahar. Like any young woman, I dreamed of a stable and happy life. I was engaged to Mohammad, and together, we dreamed of building a warm little home where we could start our life. We spent years preparing our house, but just before our wedding, everything was destroyed in an instant by the war.
I was faced with a choice: to leave Mohammad in the midst of this chaos or to stand by him and begin our journey together, no matter how difficult it might be. I chose him. We got married, not in the dream wedding I had envisioned, but under the harsh reality of war. Our new home became a fragile tent, offering neither comfort nor security.
After we got married, I received the news that I was pregnant with my daughter, and I live in constant fear for my unborn child. I am terrified of the world she will be born into—a world of poverty, hunger, and bitter cold. We have been displaced from our home more than nine times, carrying with us nothing but the burden of loss and the hope of survival. The house we dreamed of is now rubble, and the tent we live in barely protects us from the rain and cold.How will I protect my daughter? We struggle to find enough food. Basic necessities like milk, blankets, and clothing feel impossibly out of reach. The cost of survival has become unbearable. Every night, I am haunted by the thought: how can I bring her into this world, knowing I cannot keep her safe?
After a long pregnancy filled with pain and fear, after nights without sleep, I finally gave birth to my baby girl. She was born in the middle of bombing, surrounded by destruction and poverty—not in a warm room, not in a safe place. Her first cry mixed with the sound of explosions, as if she was announcing her arrival into a cruel world she never chose.
I gave birth to her with nothing but my heart. I cannot promise her anything. Poverty surrounds us from every side, and the cold reaches her tiny body before night even comes. My baby and I are suffering deeply, not because we ask for much, but because I am unable to provide her with the most basic needs: milk, warmth, and safety.
When I look into her eyes, I feel strength. When I look at my empty hands, I break down in tears. I am a mother trying to save her child from hunger and fear, in a world that has shown no mercy even to the dreams of children.😢🥹

From the depths of my heart, thank you for your kindness and compassion🥹❤️🙏
Khan Younis… a city overwhelmed by displacement, suffocating under the weight of tents and silent screams.Families fleeing from one danger into another, with nothing but broken dreams and borrowed blankets.
Children are starving. Mothers spend the day searching for crumbs. Fathers are shadows of themselves, carrying pain they can’t express. No clean water. No food. No medicine.
This is not a page from history — this is now. In Khan Younis. In the dust and mud, among torn tents and empty pots.
Hunger is the only language left. The cries are loud, even if the world has stopped listening.
Please, don’t turn away. Every share, every donation can help.

🔴Please, kind-hearted people, I will never forgive anyone who saw my innocent child's tears and whose humanity didn't move them. 🥹😭🥹
‼️Now she desperately needs medication and treatment. It's enough that she's taking medications that are destroying her kidneys. She also suffers from kidney failure, in addition to autism and a disability. What are you waiting for? If I lose her, I will never forgive anyone who considered these chronic illnesses something trivial!
Remember that I knocked on your door, O human, seeking the price of medicine and treatment for an innocent soul 💔🥹Your donation, even a small one, is an act of solidarity with my child and my family, and I will kneel in gratitude to anyone who understands my anguish as a mother who hates to see her children suffer before her eyes while she is helpless.🙏🏻

I am Mamdouh Al-Amoudi from Gaza, The father of five children: Lana, Muhammad, Amin, Youssef, Yazan, and my wife Samia. We are currently living horrible conditions that are heavily affecting my children’s health. My son, Muhammad is ill with pulmonary atrophy (a chronic, progressive lung disease) and needs to travel abroad for treatment (pictures of the diagnoses are provided). We have been displaced more than 5 times due to the war and genocide, which has affected his health condition.
I'm struggling to provide my children with the food and nutrition they need. We can't afford anything for my family because the prices are increasing rapidly as food is becoming very rare to find. We're living in dangerous circumstances; our homes have been destroyed and our dreams shattered. It makes us sad to see our bright children being robbed from a childhood they deserve. We need donations to help us leaving Gaza for better life as we can find proper treatment for our son Muhammad and better environment for our children.

€63 / €30,000 raised as of February 11th, 2026. That last donation was made a full week ago! Please donate to this family ASAP if you have the ability to at all, anything you can give will make an impact and is absolutely worth it even if you can only afford to contribute a small amount, and be sure to reblog this post with tags so more people can see it and donations can keep being made!
Is there anybody who can confirm this account as vetted?
I appeal to you with all my pain and suffering. We are living in dire circumstances as a result of the war in Gaza. Our homes have been destroyed and our dreams shattered. These are pictures of us as proof after everything was destroyed. I beg you to help me for the sake of my children. Please look upon us with compassion. Share this post and donate, even a little. Your donations help us greatly. Please.
Have you ever tried living for two full years in a makeshift tent that protects you from neither the scorching heat of summer nor the freezing cold of winter?
Have you lived without clean water, without proper food, in a place that isn’t suitable for human beings?
We are living in tragic conditions. We barely eat enough to keep hunger away, and whatever food we find is nothing close to what a human body needs.
Have you ever been in severe pain that feels like your body is tearing apart simply because there is no medicine? And when medicine does appear, it is either a rare miracle or sold at a price we can never afford.
Our life has become something that words cannot fully describe.
We are suffering every moment, in every part of daily life. And asking for help is not easy for me, but our reality is far harsher than anything we can face alone.
Your kindness, your humanity, your support are the only things keeping us going. Without your help, I don’t know how we would have survived these months.
Please continue supporting my family by donating and sharing this post.
We are in desperate need, especially for my ill father whose medicine has become nearly impossible to secure.
Your generosity is the only light we have left.

📌 Fundraiser vetted (#167 by el-shab-hussein & nabulsi), But we created a new GoFundMe page because GoFundMe suspended the beneficiary’s account on the platform, which put us in a very difficult situation.
🚨 URGENT: SHE IS CRYING FROM HUNGER — NOT FROM CHILDHOOD 💔
"This is my daughter, Israa. She should be crying over a broken toy, not because I have to divide a single piece of bread to make it last another day. This is our reality on March 4th.
The Situation is Critical:
All crossings are closed. Markets are empty, and prices have tripled. Our 7 families are trapped in tents, fighting to survive a total blockade. Israa’s tears are the face of 13 children in our circle waking up to empty plates today.
How You Can Save Them Today:
Your support isn't just a donation—it is a literal lifeline for children fighting a silent battle for survival.
$5 (The Price of a Coffee): Buys a bag of bread to keep our children fed for two days.
$50 (A Week of Essentials): Secures vital grains and clean water for one of our 7 families.
The Power of a Reblog: If you cannot donate, your share is our only visibility. On Tumblr, a reblog is the difference between a child being seen or being forgotten.
Tonight, a single piece of bread is the only boundary between a child’s cry and a child’s sleep. Please help us bridge that gap before the markets go completely dark."

Give my mother a chance to be treated — a chance to stay alive.
Without this treatment, her death is not a possibility, It is inevitable.
I watch her fading in front of me, and every breath she struggles to take feels like a knife in my chest, I am powerless alone.
Just $10 from 50 people could have pulled her back from the edge.
An amount you might spend without thinking , but for her, it is the thin line between life and the grave.
If my mother dies, remember this: you saw this plea. You knew she was dying.
Your silence will not be innocent, Your silence will be a choice you made.
As of this morning,Al Jazeera and Middle East Eye confirmed that all lifelines (Rafah & Kerem Shalom) are indefinitely shut down. Our world has just become smaller, and our survival more fragile. ⚠️🚫
Markets are emptying fast. Prices are rising by the hour. Panic has hit the streets, and I am in a race against time to protect those who depend on me.
🏠 The Weight of 7 Families (19 Souls):
I am the sole provider, through your generosity, for 7 interconnected families who are now looking at me, asking:
'What comes next, Mohammed?' 💔
🧓 My elderly father and mother (In need of urgent care)
👦 My late brother’s orphaned children (Our sacred trust)
🎗️ My sister Shaimaa & her husband (He is bravely fighting cancer)
👩👧👦 My sisters Fatima and Asmaa & their young families
👦 My brother Omar & his family
👨👩👧👦 Me, my wife, and our children
📊 CURRENT PROGRESS & TRANSPARENCY:
As you can see in the screenshot below, we have reached $9,699 (49%) of our long-term goal. I am beyond grateful to every person who has supported us so far. 🙏❤️
🎯 THE IMMEDIATE GOAL: $2,100 (Emergency Food Mission)
While our long-term goal is for evacuation and total safety, today's mission is about survival. We need to hit $11,800 (Current $9,699 + $2,100) within the next 48 hours to secure flour, rice, and oil before the markets go empty.
7 Families × $300 each = $2,100
The Power of $5: If 420 people give just $5, we secure our food for the coming weeks.
⚠️ THE HARSH REALITY:
We are facing a forced, systematic starvation. Your support is our only shield.
✅ Transparency: All donations will be documented and updated publicly once collected and transferred.
Please, don’t scroll away. We are running out of time. ⏳
📢 REBLOG: Break the blockade with your voice.
💸 DONATE: Every dollar gives an orphan or a cancer patient a chance to eat.

My Child Sleeps Under Gunfire — Please Help Me Save Him Before It’s Too Late 🇵🇸💔
Tonight, my child is sleeping next to me in a house that is already destroyed. The walls are cracked. The ceiling could fall at any moment. We live near the “Yellow Line,” under Israeli military control. Gunfire is not a distant sound here — it is part of our daily life.
Every single day, bullets are fired around us.
Every single day, shelling shakes what remains of our home.
Sometimes I hold my child in my arms when the explosions get closer. His small body trembles. His heart beats so fast against my chest. He does not understand war. He does not understand borders. He only understands fear.
I am his father — and I cannot protect him.
I cannot stop the bullets.
I cannot stop the shelling.
I cannot even promise him that tomorrow will come.
We are trapped in a place that is no longer safe for human life. I am begging for help to move my family to a safer area before we become another headline… or another number.
If 50 people donate just 25$ each we can gather enough to escape this daily nightmare.
For you 25$ might be a small scarifice.
For my child, it could mean the difference between life and death.
Please — if you are reading this, do not scroll away.Help me protect my child.
Donate if you can.
Share if you cannot.
A father in Gaza is asking you for mercy. 🤍

Please, all I want is a meal for my kids during Ramadan. It doesn’t matter whether it has meat or not — what matters is that it fills their hunger. They fast for 14 hours, and everything is very, very , very expensive here in Gaza. Please
A meal without meat or chicken costs $20
A meal with meat or chicken costs $50
Please, please I just wanna save my kids , help us and don't leave us alone. Please
