You are a a lifeline for Nourhan


Hi Reader,

When I first "met" Nourhan's family, it was through an Instagram video of her daughter Najat, then 4 years old, enthusiastically cooking in their tent. She had such a sweet and hopeful spirit, despite all the trauma that she, her mother, and her little brother Mohammed had been through.

Over the last two years, I've lost count of how many times Nourhan and her children were displaced. They had several brushes with violence that were incredibly close calls.

Through it all, Nourhan has been a courageous and persistent advocate for her children, regularly sharing updates on social media. Still, donations have not kept pace with their needs, especially since the ceasefire was declared late last year.

This winter their tent has been flooded in torrential rains more than once. They lost all their food and belongings in the flooding, and Nourhan told me yesterday that she still has not been able to replace many of the basic items that were lost,

Nourhan urgently needs our help right now because on top of all she's already been through this month, today Mohammed, who has asthma, is having surgery to address his breathing problems. He is scheduled for another surgery three weeks from now for a different medical problem.

Nourhan needs donations to cover the cost of both these surgeries, which are quite expensive.

She also needs funds for medicine and food for the children. Since losing their food stores in the flooding, it has truly been a daily struggle for her to meet her precious little ones' most basic needs.

Can you share the cost of a takeout coffee - or more if you can afford - with Nourhan? Your gift of any size will truly be a lifeline as little Mohammed endures these urgently needed surgeries.

Nourhan's campaign is in US dollars, but when you click on the "donate now" button, you'll see options to give in several major currencies.

With love and solidarity,

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.

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...
