Fahed (@/fahed-2) & Reem (@/reem-reem-0), fled south together with their children & their children's grandmother. Fahed's sister's family of 5 fled south as well, and the 13 of them remained together. But after 14 months of surviving hell as a unit (and nearly reaching their campaign goal) the family is now facing one of the worse decisions imaginable: who will be able to evacuate Gaza and who will be forced to stay behind.
There may be an opportunity for evacuation soon, but they're bracing for separation, with Fahed staying behind with his sister and her family. It's hard enough reunifying in Gaza, but with the border with Egypt between them, there's no telling when (or if) they'll ever see each other again. It shouldn't be a choice this family has to make: who survives, who may not. Their kids shouldn't be forcibly separated from their dad, nor Reem from her husband.
Fahed & Reem are some of the kindest, gentlest people ever, and their kids are dazzling, just absolute sweethearts. They've all lost so much and experienced too much, and somehow, kept finding a way to endure.
But right now, they might lose each other, so please: pitch in what you can, help the Shehabs stay together 🙏

Help out however you can. No donation is too small. Thank you my friends for helping me. Please continue to donate so I can reach my goal of 5k. Your donations are what will save us. If we don't raise enough money, my family and I will have to separate, and we will be separated and far from each other. The family will be dispersed. We want to travel and leave Gaza together because my family cannot live without me. Our lives are in your hands. Please donate even a little, leave your beautiful mark in our lives. Please, everything helps and benefits us.
