Welcome! My name is Katherine and I am running this campaign on behalf of my very dear friend Bayan. 

Bayan and I have been friends for around a year and a half, and in that time, I have come to think of her as an extension of my own family. Bayan has two beautiful children, Ameer and Leen, she is a devoted and adoring mother, doing her very best to keep her babies alive through an ongoing active genocide. 

Ameer and Leen have consistently gone without enough to eat throughout the past 22 months. They have continued to hear and see frightening things throughout this time and Bayan has done everything in her power to protect and distract them.


Bayan has come up with a beautiful project in which she is providing education for small children in her area. Bayan lives with her immediate family (including sisters, brother), in her parents’ home, and this campaign will benefit her children and her family members living in the home. Bayan also does her best to provide for extended family members.

Bayan is located in the North, where famine has been most persistent and costs have remained highest for all basic goods. Bayan has been through unending trauma and stress in the last two years but has persisted for the sake of her children.

I have already confirmed that I can successfully transfer funds to Bayan, so you can be assured anything donated will be directed to her securely.

Please consider offering a gift today, we are so grateful for your time and presence.

Dear donor family,

Thank you for your continued support for Bayan and her family. We appreciate all of you, and have a very important change to announce.

Our campaign is moving to Chuffed!!

Unfortunately, Spotfund has changed the way they handle payouts and the changes have made it impossible to keep using the current account with Spotfund. I have created a new campaign through Chuffed, which is a safe platform that openly supports Palestinian people, so this new account should remain accessible for the foreseeable future for Bayan and her family. I will continue to send her funds as they are collected in full, at times desired by the family.

Bayan’s family will need assistance in building this campaign, please share the new link and offer a gift there, if possible, to help the campaign get kicked off.

Urgent update from Bayan:


“Just a few days ago, I was forced to leave my home in North Gaza, carrying my children in my arms as I fled from fear and death, without even being able to take a single blanket or piece of clothing for them.

We are now living in a very old and rundown house in the south-no heating, no bedding, no proper doors to protect us from the cold and fear. And despite all of this, I am required to pay $1,000 every month for rent... an amount far beyond my ability, and I have no idea how I will manage to pay it.

I swear, my heart can no longer bear it, and my body has no strength left. I am tired of standing against life all on my own.

I have no one left to turn to but your hearts before your doors... I beg you, please help me and save my children from this suffering.

Please... help us.

Perhaps this message will be the mercy we have been praying for.

The house we live in lacks all the basic necessities of life.

We are surrounded by cracked walls and unbearable conditions. I beg and plead with you to extend a helping hand to repair this home so that we may live in dignity and safety. Our situation is beyond what anyone can endure, and after God, our hope lies in you.”

Dear donor family,

 

Heartbreakingly, Bayan has been forced to leave her family home. They have been displaced twice, and she finally found an apartment for rent which will house her family. Bayan is traveling with her precious kids and her parents, siblings and their families…she is bearing responsibility for all of them as the breadwinner through this campaign. We are their only source of income.

Bayan will need to continue to pay monthly for rent at $500, and will need to replace items left behind - the family could only bring what they could carry. 

Please know that your gifts are appreciated, and if you are able to offer anything in coming days, the need is great. 

Thank you for your care and solidarity - we love you!!!
