With no end in sight to the atrocities, the Abu Raida family needs your help to survive.
Nationwide
It is currently Ramadan, with no end in sight to the atrocities. More than 160 days into the conflict, the Abu Raida family is struggling to put food on the table. A UN-backed report has warned that famine is imminent by July (https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/famine-expected-by-may-gaza-says-un-backed-report-2024-03-18/).
This family also requires other necessities, but humanitarian aid is only trickling through the border and air-dropped in insufficient numbers. Food and diapers are available in the market but this family needs help to buy them, albeit at exorbitant prices.
We have provided monetary assistance successfully a few times before. However, their funds are dwindling, and they need our help again. The money goes to their family as well as an orphan of extended family whom they have taken in. They have also helped other Palestinians who are starving in desperate situations.
Asif is my husband
And he is a friend of the father of this family in Gaza.
The money will be spent on food, diapers and other necessities to help out Yasser Hassan Abu Raida and his family.
Updates from Yasser 18 May 2024
Due to the ground invasion in Rafah, Yasser had to move out of the red to an evacuation zone and was unable to communicate for a number of days because of an internet blackout. Two days ago, he finally had internet and was able to contact us despite some difficulties in the new settlement such as getting water. There have also been updates with regards to his mother currently with his sister in Egypt. She was suffering from spinal pain and had to have urgent treatment (please review her medical report that was uploaded weeks ago). Thankfully with your donations, she was able to undergo a successful surgery and is currently in recovery.
Here's more of what Yasser had to say:
I moved to Mawasi Khan Yunis. The place is new. We need time to get used to these new faces of people, but we hope that the end of this tragedy will be near. We will see what happens in the coming days as a result of what happened at the International Court of Justice. Our circumstances have worsened, my sister. We're all tired here.
