Dear friends,

I am honored to have Ahmed Massoud, a 28-year-old journalist from Gaza who has endured unimaginable hardship, as my friend. I have been in almost daily contact with Ahmed, during which time I have learned about the Masood's (and all Palestinians') struggle to survive Israel’s ongoing genocide.

Let's band together to care for a PRESS survivor who risks his life and that of his family to tell the truth for his people — the Palestinians. Over 225 journalists have been killed since October 8, 2023.

Ahmed himself was repeatedly injured and nearly killed. Somehow, he survived!

Last May, Ahmed took his grandparents to Cairo for desperately needed life-saving medical care. We are raising funds to help the rest of his family join them in Egypt, (as the opportunities become available, given the heavy ransom charged at the border).

The Massouds have moved from place to place, fighting off starvation, illnesses, and frostbite, living in overwhelming fear of fires everywhere, of the constant shelling, bombs, quadcopters, drones, and all manner of automatic weapons and grenades.

Let’s pull our resources together to ensure Ahmed has the power to care for his family.

Donations cover food, water, medical care, medicine, blankets, and tents. We have paid for four passports so far and hope to cover the costs of safe passages out of Gaza and relocation. Receipts are available upon request.

Before the war began, Ahmed had a promising future. Since then, Israeli forces destroyed everything, reducing his house, studio, and dreams to rubble. They have lost everything, but what remains is Ahmed’s indomitable spirit.

When he is not busy speaking out, tending to his family, dealing with traumas, and helping medical refugees in Cairo, he continues to work on his documentary using the vast footage he has accumulated over the years.

Any donation you can make is greatly appreciated. Thank you for reposting, hosting a fundraiser, or asking others to give.

Together, we can be a lifeline. Please contact me directly if you have any questions.

With gratitude,

Doris
