Islam and her children need you: Restore hope for their future in Gaza
By Sophie Menon

Hi my name is Sophie! Since October 7th, I have been mortified what the whole world has witnessed. I have become so close to beautiful families in Palestine.
Please read Salahs beautiful story and please help!
I am Islam, a mother of four children in Gaza:
Sidra, 8, loves drawing; Mohammed, 7, dreams of going back to school; Taghreed, 2, and Amir, 3, are trying to survive every day.
Due to the ongoing war, we have had to leave our home more than seven times in search of safety. We now live in extremely difficult conditions, surrounded by fear, hunger, and destruction—but we never lose hope. Our children need safety, education, and a chance to live.
Any support we receive will be used to find a safe place to live after this destruction, to buy basic necessities such as clothing, and to cover travel costs to reach safe shelter outside Gaza. Every contribution helps give my family a chance at safety and dignity during these challenging times.
I humbly ask for your support. Every donation, no matter how small, is a ray of hope that brightens our lives. If you cannot help financially, simply sharing this message or sending a word of support means so much to us.
I hope one day I can repay this kindness and stand by you as you stand by us today.
You are my second family… I love you all.
Share – Donate – Save Our Future🍉

Our family has lost all sources of income after the destruction of our business and everything we owned. This situation is especially hard on my children, who have lost their sense of security and have been deprived of a normal, peaceful, and joyful childhood.
The costs of transfers and fees have become extremely high, making this campaign necessary.
Your support means more than words can express. You are helping us escape danger, rebuild our lives, and restore hope for my children and our family. I dream of a future where my family can live in peace, my children regain their childhood, and we all restore our spirits, ambitions, and lives.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing by us.
Every donation, every share, and every word of encouragement brings us closer to safety and a new beginning for my children and family.
This Eid, we try to create small moments of joy for our children despite all the hardship 💛
Their smiles mean everything to us. Despite fear and displacement, they still hold onto hope
Thanks to your previous support, I was able to bring them Eid clothes, and their happiness was beyond words 🙏
On the first morning of Eid, Muhammad and Amir walked to the prayer through destruction… yet their hearts were full of light and hope 🌙
🙏 You can be part of their joy. Even the smallest support can make a big differe
Today is Amir’s birthday…
Today was supposed to be a joyful day for my son Amir —
a day of cake, laughter, and gifts like other children…
But the truth is our days are still filled with fear and uncertainty,
and my children are living a childhood no child deserves.
Amir is not asking for much…
just safety, a peaceful life, and the chance to smile like any other child.
💔 If you can, please be part of Amir’s smile today.
Your support — even a small amount — helps us provide for our children during these very difficult times.
