Help a family from Gaza evacuate to safety

Hello everyone,

My name is Supanoot (Joann) Hardeman. I am a mother of 3, living in the United States. I am raising funds to help the Shanab family in Gaza evacuate to safety, and to receive medical treatments. Here is a message from one of the family members that I am assisting:

Hello,

First of all, I hope you are doing well and that no harm comes to you. My name is Firas Abu Shanab. I am trying to help my family leave Gaza safely to Egypt in order to access the medical treatment they need. My family consists of 9 members (parents, two daughters, the eldest of whom suffers from dwarfism (a genetic disease), and three sons, the eldest of whom also suffers from dwarfism, is married, and has two young children). My brother and sister urgently need healthcare. We have lost everything we have, our family home and my siblings' homes were completely destroyed, as well as our jobs, literally everything. My family is now living in a small tent barely fit for them, in a very difficult situation. It breaks my heart to see my family suffer. We are desperately searching for a way to reach safety and provide a better life for us and our children. Your support means the world to us and gives us hope. We are forever grateful for any help you can provide.  

I want to emphasize that the cost of travel per person is $7000, which is a large amount and we cannot afford it in this difficult situation. ‏I trust in your humanity and I am hopeful that every dollar you donate will help my family. ‏Thank you in advance and I appreciate everything you do for my family.
