Hi, my name is Aly Wick and I'm from Cincinnati, Ohio, USA! The Quenita family are a wonderful family of 7 whom I've gotten to know so well over the last 2 years, and who have suffered many losses, experienced disease, malnutrition and hardships since the beginning of the attacks on Gaza in October 2023. 

  • Lama - 18
  • Lian - 16
  • Lin - 14
  • Rahaf - 12
  • Abdullah - 10
  • Ghazal - 7

She and her children are currently are facing unimaginable challenges. At the beginning of the war, Ehsan lost her husband, who was martyred, and tragically, almost his entire family followed. They lived in northern Gaza, but their home was completely destroyed, forcing them to flee to the south.

Now, they find themselves homeless, grappling with the weight of loss and despair.

Ehsan is a strong woman, yet she is filled with anguish as she watches her children suffer. She has taken the courageous step of creating a donation link, seeking help to escape the relentless cycle of death and injustice. Despite her desperation, Ehsan feels ashamed to ask for help, but she knows she must for the sake of her children.

Before the war, Ehsan led a stable and dignified life, but the destruction around her has stripped away her ability to earn an income and provide for her family. She hopes that even small contributions can make a difference, as her children desperately need support.

Her daughters, Lama and Lian, were thriving in high school before everything changed. They now face not only the loss of their father, five uncles, many cousins, and their grandmother, but also the looming threat of losing their futures. Ehsan’s children have lost all their relatives and are enveloped in grief. They have no family left but their mother.

Please consider helping Ehsan and her children during this dire time. Your support, no matter how small, can bring hope to a family in need and help them find a path toward safety and stability. Thank you for your compassion.

From my dear friend Ehsan:

"I am a mother with 6 children. My husband was martyred at the beginning of this war and my husband’s family were all martyred. I had a house in northern Gaza and it was completely destroyed. Because of that, I was displaced to the south. I am homeless now, and the situation is tragic.

I do not want to live the bitterness of loss again and see my children die in front of me, so I created a donation link until we can escape. From death and injustice to a safe place, I am now talking to you and I am crying and ashamed of myself. It is difficult to ask for help.

I am in need of money because before the war my financial situation was stable and we lived a decent life and we have dignity, but the destruction and violence has made it so we cannot earn any income at all.

I hope you can help me even if with a small amount because my children are in need and no one is donating to my children. My daughters Lama and Lian need to study and were in high school.

My children lost all their relatives , and grief constantly, for their father, five uncles, many cousins and their grandmother, lost to the war. They have no family left besides their mother."

Thank you for your support of Ehsan and her family!

Her children can survive another day because of you.

From Aly: I am an active member of my local community and Bookstagram. I've also founded multiple nonprofit organizations in Anderson Twp, Cincinnati serving survivors of trauma and increasing literacy. I am a foster mom and cat lover who is passionate about justice and peace. If you have any questions, please let me know.

10/7/25 - On this day, the two year anniversary of the current genocide on Gaza, I implore you to keep this family in your heart and your giving. 

The morale is low, the hunger pains are all-consuming, the sounds of bombs and drones deafening. Ehsan and her family still need you, desperately. 

Do not forget Gaza. Gaza does not forget you.

Ehsan and the children were just forced to flee their bombed-out apartment with nothing but the clothes on their backs. They are in desperate need of a tent and mattresses. See video attached below.

"We have been ordered to evacuate the tower. We are on the street."

Sep 12:

"We are in danger. Tanks are advancing and the shelling is intense. Oh, Lord."

Sep 13:

"We're leaving. I need a tent quickly. We don't know where to go. Everyone evacuates. We evacuated, but we didn't take anything with us. We left without anything. We left under bombardment and threats. We need a tent and mattresses. We reached a safe place after a 48-hour siege."

Sep 15:

"A very scary night. Very low flying [planes]."

Abdullah has a severe skin infection which has spread to some of the other children. Lama, the eldest was cooking when her foot was burned badly. The family has been eating leaves to survive. On top of this, Ehsan's Instagram account was permanently suspended by Meta. We will send another update once she has a new account set up. She is considering using another platform.

 
 
July 20th:
"We collect mulberry leaves to make food because there's no food in the markets."
 
July 31st:
"I took Abdullah for treatment. The infections on his body are increasing and not healing. The doctor said this is a contagious and serious disease, and he must take antibiotic injections to heal...two injections per day, one in the morning and one in the evening."
 
August 5th:
"Lama, unfortunately, burned her leg. 
Lama is in bad condition now.
She was cooking and burned her leg from the fire."
 
August 11th:
"The virus infected Lina and Lama.
Abdullah had a severe virus due to malnutrition, and now it's starting with Lina and Lama.
It's a difficult virus, and recovery takes a long time.
Pray for my children's recovery."
