"I am Nagham Qudaih, 23 years old, from the heart of besieged Khan Younis in Gaza.
I write to you as words suffocate me; what we endure today is beyond human capacity. My family of five has lost everything. Our home is now rubble, and our loved ones have become memories beneath the earth.
We are not living; we are merely trying not to die. We go to sleep with hunger gnawing at our bodies and wake up to sounds that know no mercy. I am not asking for luxury; I am asking for the most basic human rights: a warm meal, clean water, and a glimmer of hope.
What breaks my heart even more is my parents' health; they both suffer from chronic high blood pressure and urgently need medications that we can no longer afford. In the midst of this siege, obtaining their treatment has become a daily struggle for survival.
My heart is in Gaza, and its pulse is now in your hands. Do not let this pulse fade away in silence. Your help today is not just money; it is medicine for my parents, life for my family, and a defiant cry that we are still here. Help me—not because you have much, but because you have a heart that feels. Every donation, no matter how small, is a new life for us."
"As the organizer of this fundraiser:
I know Nagham personally, and I know how difficult it is for her to ask for help, but the conditions in Gaza and the skyrocketing prices have left her with no choice. She has lost her home, but she has not lost hope in your hearts. I guarantee that every donation here will go directly to changing the life of Nagham and her family, bringing her closer to the dream of her wedding that she has already begun to build."
