Sahar is seeking to raise $35,000 to finance her move out of Gaza and into safety.

Read below to hear from Sahar in her own words,

“I am not used to asking for help and this is the first time in my life that I ask for help in order to save my life and the lives of my family. This war touches the feelings of people around the world. It is a very difficult decision to leave Gaza, but we have no other choice to save our lives and save the lives of our children … It's an expensive process, but together we can achieve it.

The war on Gaza has injured us [with] psychological trauma and extreme terror as a result of the continuous bombing, the killing of children, the destruction of homes and displacement. The Gaza Strip has become foodless, and the water is polluted. The occupation destroyed all health and industrial facilities in the Gaza Strip, making it uninhabitable.

I am alive, but my friends and neighbors who were killed in Gaza are still under the rubble of their homes. No one can save them because of the continuous bombing of the occupation of houses in Gaza. With the destruction of all of us, we have no choice but to leave Gaza, our lives are precious to us… [we] in Gaza are not just numbers. We are human beings who love life and want to live freely, peacefully and safely.”
