Abdullah needs life-saving surgery
|
Hi Reader, First I'd like to say THANK YOU to each of you who's made a gift to our new Emergency Fund or signed up for our monthly Family Sponsor Program. Your support of our families means the world to them, both at a practical, financial level and at an emotional one. It's not easy to keep your heart open to the suffering in our world, especially when it seems like those in power care so little about the harm they are causing. I hope you'll take encouragement from this art that Janna Dwyer recently shared: Today, I want to bring your attention to two of our families who especially need emergency funds. Abdullah needs immediate heart surgery As many of you know Abdullah Ziad's health is extremely fragile, and he has been growing dangerously weak over the past few months. He needs immediate surgery to place a stent in his heart. Abdullah's heart condition is impacted by his diabetes. He can't consistently afford insulin, which has had disastrous effects on his health. Abdullah needs to raise $4,000 USD as soon as possible, which includes:
You can help by donating directly to Abdullah's Chuffed campaign or by donating to the Coffees for Gaza Emergency Fund.
Anas currently has no funds to care for his siblings and parents Anas is 23 years old and trained to be an engineer before the genocide began. Now, at such a young age, he supports a large number of younger siblings as well as his parents. Before the war, Anas and his father had just built a beautiful new home. They hadn't had a chance to move into it before it was heavily damaged by bombings and fire. They lived in a tent for two years. Now, as you can see in this video Anas posted, they are trying to make their home livable while also sheltering there. This is an incredibly difficult task which involves lots of shoveling rubble, plus more complex repairs. Anas isn't able to spend much time promoting his family's fundraising campaign online, so he has struggled for the past 2 years to raise enough for their basic needs. Currently, they have exhausted all their funds and need our support to purchase food, basic supplies, and make their home livable. You can help by donating directly to Anas' fundraiser or by donating to the Coffees for Gaza Emergency Fund.

Hi Reader, Fadi cares for so many family members, and he does everything he can to avoid asking for help. He and his family need our care. What if we could show even a fraction of the generosity to him that he share with the people around him? I've shared before that Fadi and his wife have three beautiful daughters, who he calls their "flowers." But Fadi also supports his elderly parents and his younger sister. Alaa, Fadi and their three daughters: Danya, Kinda, and Leen The family has long...
Hi Reader, Tahani, Mohammed, and their four children urgently need your support. They have exhausted all their funds and food. As you can see below, a recent storm badly damaged their already battered tent. The streets near their tent regularly collect sewage-infested water, putting them at risk of serious illness. Various family members have already fallen ill several times. Tahani also wants to pass along her gratitude to Coffees for Gaza supporters like you for your past generosity. You...
Hi Reader, On Friday, families across Gaza were able to celebrate Eid al-Fitr for the first time since the genocide began. While all of the 25 families we're in relationship with still face incredibly harsh living conditions, it has been wonderful to see the joy and beauty in their holiday pictures and messages. On behalf of our families, we'd like to share thanks and appreciation for all the emotional and financial support you have offered. Every dollar you've donated, every post or email...
