Help Aida Rebuild Her Family’s Lifeline
Aida is a divorced mother of two who is also helping support her parents. For years, she has been doing everything she can to carry the responsibility of her family and make sure the people who depend on her have what they need. For a long time, her small $1 shop on Sawfar’s main street was what made that possible. It was not a big business, and it did not bring in a large income. But it was hers to work from. Every small sale helped her cover groceries, her children’s needs, household expenses, and the support she gives her parents. For Aida, that little shop meant being able to wake up every morning knowing she had a way to provide for her family. Then she lost it. A dispute took place between the owners of the property she was renting, and they eventually decided to take the shop back. Aida had nothing to do with the disagreement and no control over the decision. But she was the one who had to live with the consequences. She lost the place she worked from and, with it, the income that her family relied on. Her responsibilities did not disappear when the shop closed. She was still a mother of two. Her parents still needed her help. There were still groceries to buy, bills to pay, and everyday expenses to cover. She simply no longer had the small business that had helped her manage them. Instead of giving up, Aida began looking for another place where she could start again. She eventually found a small shop next to the school in Sawfar. The location gives her a real opportunity to rebuild her business by selling affordable items needed by students, families, and people living in the area. But right now, the shop is only an empty space. Before Aida can open its doors, it needs repairs and basic preparation. She needs shelves and simple equipment, and most importantly, she needs enough money to purchase the first stock of products to sell. After losing everything she had built in the first shop, starting again from zero is more than she can afford on her own. This fundraiser is meant to give her that beginning. The money raised will go toward repairing and preparing the new shop, purchasing shelves and basic equipment, and filling it with affordable school supplies, snacks, household items, and other everyday products that can be sold in the neighborhood. The goal is not simply to help Aida through a difficult period. It is to help her rebuild the source of income that allows her to take care of her own family. A small contribution can help buy a shelf, repair part of the shop, or place the first few products on its shelves. Together, those small contributions can turn an empty room into a working business again. Aida has already done the hardest part: after losing her livelihood, she found the strength to search for another opportunity and begin again. Now she needs help turning that opportunity into something real. By supporting Aida, you are helping a mother reopen the door to a livelihood that her children and parents depend on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ عايدة أم مطلّقة لطفلين، وفي الوقت نفسه تساعد في إعالة والديها. منذ سنوات، وهي تبذل كل ما بوسعها لتحمل مسؤولية عائلتها وتأمين احتياجات الأشخاص الذين يعتمدون عليها. لفترة طويلة، كان محلها الصغير الذي يبيع أغراضاً بدولار واحد على الشارع الرئيسي في صوفر هو ما يجعل ذلك ممكناً. لم يكن مشروعاً كبيراً، ولم يكن يدرّ عليها دخلاً مرتفعاً. لكنه كان مصدر عملها ورزقها. كل عملية بيع، مهما كانت صغيرة، كانت تساعدها على شراء حاجات المنزل، وتأمين احتياجات أطفالها، وتغطية المصاريف اليومية، ومساعدة والديها. بالنسبة لعايدة، كان ذلك المحل الصغير يعني أن تستيقظ كل صباح وهي تعرف أن لديها وسيلة تؤمّن من خلالها احتياجات عائلتها. ثم خسرته. حصل خلاف بين أصحاب العقار الذي كانت تستأجر فيه، وانتهى الأمر بقرارهم استعادة المحل. لم يكن لعايدة أي علاقة بهذا الخلاف، ولم يكن لديها أي قدرة على تغيير القرار. لكنها كانت هي من تحملت النتائج. خسرت المكان الذي كانت تعمل فيه، ومعه خسرت مصدر الدخل الذي كانت عائلتها تعتمد عليه. مسؤولياتها لم تختفِ عندما أُغلق المحل. بقيت أماً لطفلين. بقي والداها بحاجة إلى مساعدتها. بقيت هناك فواتير، ومصاريف منزل، واحتياجات يومية يجب تأمينها. لكنها لم تعد تملك المشروع الصغير الذي كان يساعدها على القيام بذلك. بدلاً من الاستسلام، بدأت عايدة تبحث عن مكان جديد تستطيع أن تبدأ فيه من جديد. وبعد البحث، وجدت محلاً صغيراً بجانب المدرسة في صوفر. وموقعه يمنحها فرصة حقيقية لإعادة بناء مشروعها من خلال بيع منتجات بأسعار مناسبة يحتاجها الطلاب والعائلات وأهالي المنطقة. لكن المحل اليوم ما زال مجرد مساحة فارغة. قبل أن تتمكن عايدة من فتح أبوابه، يحتاج إلى بعض التصليحات والتجهيزات الأساسية. تحتاج إلى رفوف ومعدات بسيطة، والأهم من ذلك أنها تحتاج إلى مبلغ يساعدها على شراء أول كمية من البضاعة لتبدأ البيع. بعد أن خسرت كل ما بنته في محلها الأول، أصبحت البداية من الصفر أكبر من قدرتها المادية وحدها. وهذه الحملة هدفها أن تمنحها تلك البداية. سيتم استخدام المبلغ الذي يتم جمعه لتصليح وتجهيز المحل الجديد، وشراء الرفوف والمعدات الأساسية، وتأمين أول كمية من البضاعة، مثل المستلزمات المدرسية، والمأكولات الخفيفة، والحاجات المنزلية، وغيرها من المنتجات اليومية التي يحتاجها سكان المنطقة. الهدف ليس فقط مساعدة عايدة على تجاوز فترة صعبة. الهدف هو مساعدتها على استعادة مصدر الدخل الذي يسمح لها بالاعتناء بعائلتها. حتى المساهمة الصغيرة يمكن أن تساعد في شراء رف، أو تصليح جزء من المحل، أو وضع أولى البضائع على الرفوف. ومعاً، يمكن لهذه المساهمات أن تحوّل مكاناً فارغاً إلى مشروع يعمل من جديد. عايدة قامت بالفعل بأصعب خطوة: بعد أن خسرت مصدر رزقها، وجدت القوة لتبحث عن فرصة أخرى وتبدأ من جديد. الآن هي بحاجة إلى من يساعدها لتحويل هذه الفرصة إلى واقع. بدعمكم لعايدة، أنتم لا تساعدونها فقط على فتح محل جديد، بل تساعدون أماً على استعادة مصدر رزق يعتمد عليه أطفالها ووالداها.

بيت لشيرلي (Scroll for English) ساعدونا لنمنح عائلة عاشت سنوات من عدم الاستقرار بيتًا ومستقبلًا أكثر أمانًا هدف الحملة: 99,000 دولار أميركي بالنسبة لمعظمنا، البيت هو المكان الذي نعود إليه عندما تصبح الحياة صعبة. أما بالنسبة لعائلة شيرلي، فالحياة كانت صعبة لسنوات طويلة، ولم يكن لديهم يومًا منزل يملكونه ويشعرون فيه بالأمان والاستقرار. واليوم، أمامنا فرصة حقيقية لنغيّر ذلك. قصة عائلة واجهت الكثير خدم والد شيرلي في الجيش اللبناني لمدة 23 عامًا، وخلال خدمته تعرّض لحادث خطير تركه مع إعاقة جسدية دائمة. خضع على أثره لحوالي 36 عملية جراحية، ولا تزال إصاباته تحدّ من قدرته على العمل حتى اليوم. ولم تتوقف معاناة العائلة عند ذلك. كان لديهم ابن وُلد مع متلازمة داون، ثم أصيب بسرطان الدم. وبعد أربع سنوات من محاربة المرض، توفي عام 2005 وهو في الثامنة من عمره فقط. بعد سنتين، وُلدت شيرلي وهي تعاني من متلازمة داندي ووكر (Dandy-Walker Syndrome)، وهي حالة عصبية أثرت على نموها الجسدي وحركتها، وجعلتها بحاجة إلى متابعة طبية وأدوية وعلاج فيزيائي مستمر. وفي الوقت نفسه، تعاني والدتها من مشكلة صحية شديدة تجعل التنفس الطبيعي صعبًا، وقد خضعت لحوالي ست عمليات جراحية دون أن تتمكن من حل المشكلة بشكل نهائي. جميع هذه الظروف الطبية موثقة، والتقارير والمستندات متوفرة للتحقق منها. واقعهم اليوم بعد كل ما مرّت به العائلة، تعتمد اليوم بشكل أساسي على معاش تقاعدي يبلغ حوالي 300 دولار شهريًا. والإيجار وحده يبلغ 300 دولار شهريًا. وفوق ذلك هناك الكهرباء والخدمات، الطعام، الأدوية، المواصلات، التعليم، التدفئة، والمتابعة الطبية. كما تحتاج شيرلي إلى علاج فيزيائي بمعدل جلستين أسبوعيًا، إضافة إلى علاجات أخرى لا تستطيع العائلة تحمّل تكلفتها بشكل منتظم. لسنوات، كان الحل هو مساعدتهم على تجاوز الحاجة التي أمامهم: إيجار هذا الشهر، دواء، طعام، تدفئة أو علاج. لكن ماذا لو استطعنا هذه المرة أن نفعل شيئًا دائمًا؟ فرصة حقيقية لتغيير حياتهم وجدنا للعائلة شقة في كسارة، زحلة، في منطقة هادئة ومناسبة يمكن أن تمنحهم البيئة والاستقرار اللذين يحتاجون إليهما. سعر الشقة كان 100,000 دولار، لكن عندما عرف صاحبها بقصة العائلة، وافق على بيعها مقابل 85,000 دولار فقط، مقدمًا تخفيضًا بقيمة 15,000 دولار مساهمةً منه في مساعدة العائلة. والأهم أن هذا المنزل لن يكون مجرد سقف فوق رؤوسهم. سيكون لشيرلي غرفة ومساحة خاصة بها تستطيع فيها ممارسة تمارينها، والعمل على حركتها وعلاجها، وقضاء وقتها في بيئة مريحة وآمنة تساعدها على التطور والتحسن. بعد سنوات من العيش في ظروف محدودة، نريد أن يصبح بيتهم الجديد مكانًا تستطيع فيه شيرلي أن تعيش وتنمو وتعمل على صحتها بكرامة. وهكذا، أصبح امتلاكهم لبيت ليس مجرد حلم، بل فرصة حقيقية أمامنا اليوم. لماذا نريد جمع 99,000 دولار؟ سيُخصص 85,000 دولار لشراء الشقة. أما المبلغ المتبقي فسيُستخدم لتأثيث وتجهيز المنزل بالاحتياجات الأساسية والأجهزة والخدمات اللازمة، بما في ذلك تجهيز المساحة الخاصة بشيرلي لتناسب احتياجاتها وتمارينها اليومية. وأي مبلغ إضافي، وفق شروط الحملة، يمكن أن يساهم في احتياجات شيرلي الطبية والعلاج الفيزيائي المستمر. شيرلي بدأت تصنع مستقبلها وسط كل هذه الظروف، بدأ يحدث شيء جميل. بدأت شيرلي مؤخرًا تنشر محتوى تعليميًا وتشجيعيًا على TikTok ووسائل التواصل الاجتماعي، وخلال فترة قصيرة وصل حسابها إلى حوالي 13 ألف متابع، وبدأت فيديوهاتها تنتشر ويكتشف الناس شخصيتها وقصتها. ونحن لا نريد أن يكون مستقبل شيرلي قائمًا فقط على تلقي المساعدة. نريد أن نعطيها بيئة مستقرة تستطيع من خلالها أن تتعلم، وتتطور، وتبني شيئًا خاصًا بها، وتعيش بأكبر قدر ممكن من الاستقلال والكرامة. والبيت هو البداية. من يقف وراء هذه المبادرة؟ أنا القس إيلي حوراني، راعي هذه العائلة منذ خمس سنوات، وقد رافقتهم وساعدتهم في احتياجاتهم الأساسية خلال هذه الفترة. اليوم أطلق هذه المبادرة لمساعدتهم على امتلاك منزل دائم يمنحهم الاستقرار الذي يحتاجون إليه. أقوم بذلك بشكل تطوعي بالكامل، ولن أحصل على أي منفعة مالية أو عمولة من التبرعات. ساعدونا لنمنحهم بيتًا لا نستطيع أن نغيّر السنوات الصعبة التي عاشتها هذه العائلة. لكن يمكننا أن نغيّر ما سيأتي بعدها. كل تبرع، مهما كان حجمه، يقرّبنا من الهدف. وإذا لم تكن قادرًا على التبرع، يمكنك مساعدتنا من خلال مشاركة قصة شيرلي لتصل إلى شخص آخر يستطيع المساهمة. هدفنا 99,000 دولار. خلف هذا الرقم توجد عائلة واحدة، بيت واحد، وفرصة لبداية جديدة. ساعدونا لنضع مفتاح بيتهم في يد شيرلي. 🔑 A Home for Shirley Help us give a family that has lived through years of instability a home and a more secure future. Campaign Goal: $99,000 USD For most of us, home is the place we return to when life becomes difficult. For Shirley’s family, life has been difficult for many years, and they have never had a home of their own where they could feel truly safe and secure. Today, we have a real opportunity to change that. A Family That Has Faced So Much Shirley’s father served in the Lebanese Army for 23 years. During his service, he suffered a serious accident that left him with a permanent physical disability. He underwent approximately 36 surgeries, and the effects of his injuries continue to limit his ability to work today. But the family’s hardships did not end there. They had a son who was born with Down syndrome and later developed leukemia. After fighting the disease for four years, he passed away in 2005 at only eight years old. Two years later, Shirley was born with Dandy-Walker syndrome, a neurological condition that has affected her physical development and mobility. She requires ongoing medical care, medication, and regular physiotherapy. At the same time, Shirley’s mother suffers from a serious medical condition that makes normal breathing extremely difficult. She has undergone approximately six surgeries, but the problem has not been successfully resolved. All of these medical circumstances are documented, and supporting reports and records are available for verification. Their Reality Today After everything this family has been through, they currently depend primarily on a pension of approximately $300 per month. Their rent alone is $300 per month. On top of that, they must cover electricity and utilities, food, medication, transportation, education, winter heating, and medical care. Shirley also needs physiotherapy approximately twice a week, along with other treatments that the family simply cannot afford on a regular basis. For years, our help has focused on the need immediately in front of them: this month’s rent, medication, food, heating, or treatment. But what if this time we could do something permanent? A Real Opportunity to Change Their Future We have found an apartment for the family in Ksara, Zahle, in a peaceful neighborhood that can provide the environment and stability they desperately need. The apartment was originally priced at $100,000. After learning about the family’s situation, the owner agreed to sell it for $85,000, contributing a $15,000 discount to help make this possible. More importantly, this home will be more than simply a roof over their heads. Shirley will have a room and dedicated space where she can exercise, work on her mobility and rehabilitation, and spend time in a safe and comfortable environment that supports her progress and well-being. After years of living with limited space and resources, we want their new home to become a place where Shirley can live, grow, exercise, and work on her health with dignity. Owning a home is no longer just a dream for this family. It is an opportunity within reach. Why Are We Raising $99,000? $85,000 will be used to purchase the apartment. The remaining funds will be used to furnish and prepare the home with essential furniture, appliances, utilities, and other necessities, including preparing Shirley’s space for her daily exercises and needs. Any additional funds, subject to the campaign’s terms, can contribute toward Shirley’s ongoing medical and physiotherapy needs. Shirley Is Beginning to Build Her Own Future In the middle of all these challenges, something beautiful has begun. Shirley recently started creating educational and inspirational content on TikTok and social media. In a short period of time, her TikTok account grew to around 13,000 followers, and her videos have begun reaching more and more people. We do not want Shirley’s future to be defined only by receiving help. We want to give her a stable environment where she can learn, grow, develop what she is building, and live with as much independence and dignity as possible. A home is the beginning. Who Is Behind This Initiative? My name is Pastor Elie Hourany, and I have been this family’s pastor for the past five years. During this time, I have walked closely with them and helped with many of their basic needs. Today, I am launching this initiative to help them own a permanent home and finally experience the stability they need. I am doing this entirely as a volunteer and will receive no financial benefit, commission, or compensation from the donations. Help Us Give Them a Home We cannot change the difficult years this family has already lived through. But together, we can help change what comes next. Every donation, regardless of its size, brings us closer to the goal. And if you are unable to give, sharing Shirley’s story can help it reach someone who can. Our goal is $99,000. Behind that number is one family, one home, and one opportunity for a new beginning. Help us put the key to their own home in Shirley’s hand. 🔑

Help 5 Syrian Children Access Medical Care
After more than a decade of war, Syria’s health system is in ruins. Hospitals have been damaged or destroyed and even basic treatment costs more than many families can pay. Zahrat Al-Madayen Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing medical care and support to children with disabilities in Damascus. The association works with children suffering from paralysis, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, and orthopedic conditions. Many of them have no access to treatment due to Syria’s ongoing humanitarian crisis. The association is raising funds for urgent surgery and rehabilitation for five children whose conditions are treatable, but whose families cannot afford the care. The Children We're Helping - Omar, 3½, was born with meningeal hydrocephalus and a spinal cord deformity. He cannot walk or control his lower limbs. His mother, Samira, has to watch her son live with paralysis that surgery and physical rehabilitation could help address. Omar's care is our first goal. - Osama has cerebral palsy, with significant motor and speech delays and severe flexion contractures that require surgical intervention. - Maya has severe thoracic kyphosis (Scheuermann's disease), a progressive spinal condition that causes pain and steadily takes away her mobility. - Islam has external rotation in both lower limbs, which limits her movement and causes her pain. - Rahf has flat feet and external rotation that need surgical correction and intensive therapy. How Your Donation Will Be Used Our first goal is $1,000 to fund Omar's treatment. Beyond that, funds will go toward the care of Osama, Maya, Islam, and Rahf. Donations will support: - Surgical procedures and anesthesia - Orthopedic devices and prosthetics - Post-operative physical therapy and rehabilitation - Medical monitoring and follow-up care - Transportation to medical facilities Please give what you can, and share this page. Note: My name is Rex Stretton. As the Zahrat Al-Madayen Association cannot connect a Fundahope page to a Middle Eastern bank account, they have asked me to create this page, receive the money in my British bank account, and send it to them in Damascus. Please feel free to message me if you need additional details.

Still Hope For Hope
HOPE NEEDS URGENT SURGERY. ❤️‍🩹 Hope was shot in Kaftoun on September 12 and was found badly injured the following morning. X-rays revealed bullets lodged in his body, and his condition later progressed to paralysis. He was stabilized and has been receiving ongoing veterinary care with Dr. Nazir Abboud, where his bill has already reached approximately $1,000. With the support of Animals Lebanon, Hope was able to undergo a CT scan, blood tests and a specialist check-up in Beirut. They are also supporting the legal follow-up of his case. Hope now urgently needs surgery with Dr. Roy Hassoun. Surgery cost: $1,800 Deposit required before surgery: $1,100 Remaining after surgery: $700 This is in addition to the approximately $1,000 already accumulated for his stabilization and care with Dr. Nazir Abboud. So we are already facing around $2,800 in medical costs, and this amount does not include rehabilitation, postoperative care or any additional treatment he may need afterward. Right now, our most urgent priority is to secure the $1,100 deposit so Hope can proceed with surgery. Hope has already survived so much. We do not want lack of funds to be what prevents him from receiving the treatment he still needs. Any contribution, no matter how small, can help us get closer to his surgery. If you cannot donate, please share his case. For donations, sponsorship or more information: 📞 +961 79 171 017 Please help us give Hope the chance to keep fighting. ❤️‍🩹🐾

Jamia Baitul Ateeq's educational network serves more than 2,500 boys and girls, including 650+ students at The Petrichor School across three campuses. Approximately 950 students are residential. These figures describe different groups and are not a daily meal-attendance count. Our 30 Days of Care appeal has an initial fundraising goal of US$5,000. This is a first fundraising tranche, not the cost of operating the whole institution for a month. Platform, payment and transfer deductions will reduce the amount available for student support. Meals are the first priority. General donations to this appeal may support food and kitchen supplies for student meals, essential learning materials, and basic medical support for eligible students. Spending will follow verified needs and the funds actually received. This appeal does not include mosque construction. It accepts general donations and Sadaqah; we make no blanket Zakat-eligibility or tax-deductibility claim. Any purpose restriction should be agreed with the administration before donating. Institutional information: https://jamiabaitulateeq.org/about-us/ Transparency: https://jamiabaitulateeq.org/transparency/ The administration will account for support through purchase, receipt and service records while protecting students' privacy.

Please Help Me Achieve Financial for rehabilition
# Please Help Me Achieve Financial Stability and Continue My Rehabilitation Dear Kind Supporters, I am reaching out with sincere hope to ask for financial assistance during a very difficult period in my life. I currently live in Egypt and face serious financial difficulties. I do not have a stable source of income, and my ongoing personal and health-related circumstances make it difficult to cover my essential living expenses and maintain access to the rehabilitation services I need. Although I own my home and do not require assistance with rent, I continue to face significant recurring expenses. Without a reliable income, meeting these needs has become increasingly difficult. ### My Essential Monthly Expenses My current estimated monthly expenses are: - Food and basic household necessities: EGP 9,000. - Transportation: EGP 2,500. - Physical, occupational, and speech rehabilitation services: EGP 10,000. - Necessary monthly medication: EGP 1,500. My essential expenses total approximately **EGP 23,000 per month**, or EGP 276,000 per year. In addition, I need approximately **EGP 17,000 for rehabilitation equipment**, including a treadmill for rehabilitation use, parallel bars for walking practice, and a walking aid. ### My Fundraising Goal: USD 15,000 I am seeking to raise **USD 15,000** to help cover my essential living expenses, necessary medication, ongoing rehabilitation, and required equipment over an extended period. My goal is to secure greater financial stability so that I can focus on meeting my basic needs and continuing my rehabilitation without the constant pressure of struggling to cover every month's expenses. Your Support greatly matters and thankful, I am doing my best to improve my circumstances, but without a stable source of income, covering these continuing expenses is extremely challenging. I am asking for an opportunity to achieve greater stability, maintain access to necessary care, and work toward a more independent future. Any contribution, regardless of its size, would make a meaningful difference. If you are unable to donate, sharing my appeal with others who may be able to help would also mean a great means to me. Transparency and Privacy I am committed to being honest about my needs and how donations will be used. I have hospital documentation relating to my circumstances and can provide appropriate supporting documents through a verified and secure process if required. For my personal privacy and safety, I do not wish to publish sensitive medical or identity documents publicly. I would be deeply grateful for your kindness, consideration, and support during this difficult period. Thank you for taking the time to read my request and for considering helping me move toward a more stable future. With sincere gratitude, Andrew Fayez Fareed Abdou Egypt

Support my Life-changing Surgeries
For nearly a decade, the English‑speaking regions of Cameroon have endured a devastating armed conflict. In the midst of this violence, countless innocent civilians have suffered unimaginable losses. With me being one of the victims, a young woman whose life was shattered both literally and figuratively on April 7, 2018. On that day, in Batoh_Numba (Upper Banyang Sub‑Division, Manyu Division), I was caught in the cross‑fire and shot multiple times, with bullets violently destroying my face and injuring several parts of my body. My survival was nothing short of miraculous. Yet survival was only the beginning of a long, painful journey. My Fight to Reclaim my Life Since the attack, I have undergone a series of complex surgeries in Cameroon and abroad each one aimed at restoring basic functions and stabilizing my condition. Despite the progress made, my medical team has confirmed that i still requires seven major reconstructive surgeries to fully repair the extensive damage to my face and regain my physical and emotional wholeness. These final procedures must be performed in the United States, with an estimated cost of $65,000. Unfortunately, my family can no longer fund my medical needs. Why Your Support Matters I am not just seeking surgery, iam seeking a chance at a normal life: A chance to speak, smile, and eat without pain. A chance to work and care for myself again. A chance to walk into society without fear of being judged or shunned. A chance to rebuild confidence and dignity stolen by war. Your donation, no matter the amount, directly contributes to the procedures that will help repair my face, restore critical functions, and give me the opportunity to live fully again. How You Can Help Donate every dollar moves me closer to surgery. Share my story to widen the circle of compassion. Stand with me as i fights to reclaim my future. A Call to Compassion I have already endured what no one should ever face. Today, I depends on the kindness of people willing to stand with me during the most difficult chapter of my life. Your generosity can help me heal. Your support can help me feel human again. Your kindness can restore hope. . Thank you for opening your heart and helping me on this journey toward full recovery

"I am writing to you with a voice weighed down by fear and sorrow... I am a father of four young children, living in Gaza amidst a devastating war that has destroyed everything and left us with nothing but displacement and suffering. ​We have lost all our possessions. Today, my family and I find ourselves trapped in a worn-out, tattered tent that offers no protection against the elements. Our makeshift shelter is completely uninhabitable—the fabric is torn, allowing cold winds to sweep through from every side and rainwater to leak in. ​With winter fast approaching, a profound dread consumes me as a father. How will I protect my four children from the freezing cold? How can I provide them with warmth and basic shelter when I lack the financial means even to secure their daily meals or essential supplies? Looking into your children’s eyes as they shiver from cold and hunger, knowing you have nothing to offer them, is the most heartbreaking feeling a parent can endure. ​With no other options left, I am turning to your compassionate hearts and to anyone who believes in humanity. We are not asking for the impossible; my only wish is to secure a safe and dry shelter to protect my children, provide them with basic food, clean water, and medicine, and replace this dilapidated tent before the harsh winter sets in. ​Your donation, no matter how small, will make a life-changing difference for my four children. It will be a lifeline that restores hope in the midst of this darkness. Even if you cannot donate, sharing our story can help reach someone who can. ​From inside our tent and from the heart of our suffering in Gaza, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for every piece of support and hope you extend to my family."

I am reaching out to kind-hearted people around the world with a humble request for support. **My Dream** My biggest dream is to own a small piece of land in the Kandy District of Sri Lanka and build a simple, safe home. At present, I do not own land or a house. I am trying to improve my financial situation, but saving enough money to purchase land and build a home is extremely difficult for me. I am not dreaming of a luxurious house. All I hope for is a modest home where I can live with peace, safety, and dignity. **My Fundraising Goal** I am hoping to raise approximately USD 16,000 to help cover: - Purchasing a small plot of land in Kandy District - Legal and land registration expenses - Basic house construction and building materials - Labour costs - Essential water, electricity, and sanitation facilities The budget is an estimate and will be updated as I obtain verified land prices and construction quotations. **Your Support Means So Much** Every contribution, no matter how small, can help bring me one step closer to having a home of my own. I understand that not everyone can donate. Even sharing this campaign with your friends and family would mean a great deal to me. I will do my best to provide honest updates, photographs, and records of how the donations are used. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering helping me achieve this dream.

After spending more than $40,000 in humanitarian assistance and supporting over 1000 families affected by the crisis, Man wa Salwa is launching this campaign once again to continue standing alongside those in need. As Lebanon continues to face economic hardship, displacement, and growing humanitarian challenges, thousands of families remain unable to secure their most necessities. In response, Man wa Salwa, a Lebanese NGO officially registered under No. 2100 at the Ministry of Interior, is expanding its relief efforts to reach the most vulnerable communities. Since 2023, Man wa Salwa has operated a consumer cooperative in Furn El Chebbak, Beirut, dedicated to providing affordable essential goods while strengthening local solidarity and supporting Lebanese producers. Through this initiative, we have built a community network of more than 450 families. Today, the needs are greater than ever. Families displaced by conflict and economic hardship are living in shelters, schools, temporary housing, and overcrowded conditions across Lebanon. Through this campaign, we aim to: • Provide food parcels and essential household supplies • Support displaced and vulnerable families across Lebanon • Strengthen community-led relief efforts and local solidarity networks • Ensure that every donation is used directly to purchase and distribute essential goods We call on our friends, supporters, and especially members of the Lebanese diaspora to stand with us during this critical time.

Keep the Lights On Through October for a Loved One
We all know that in Lebanon we pay for electricity twice, once to EDL (Électricité du Liban) and once to the neighbourhood generator which takes care of the hours that the state cannot. The second bill has recently spiked, with reports of bills from around $300 up to $1,000 per household (https://nowlebanon.com/the-generator-bill-is-the-receipt). In August, the Energy Ministry's official generator rate per kilowatt-hour reached its highest level since April, almost 60% higher than in February (https://today.lorientlejour.com/article/1546224/generator-rates-in-lebanon-at-highest-since-april.html). I am fundraising for one of my best friends to help her make it through October. She has a job, but it pays $550 per month and $70-$80 a week goes on transport alone. That's more than half her income before any other expenses. What she has left is just enough for basic and frugal living, leaving no buffer when bills like these come. Our generator electricity was disconnected last week because the generator owner wasn't willing to wait a few days to get paid. There were no lights, no fridge and no means to charge a phone. We were made to feel ashamed and humiliated for the generator owner's greed, something that is happening to so many families across this country. It was embarrassing and really traumatic and we cannot go through it again. The biggest need is the generator bill. I have been told the next one will cost more than $400 and is due from October 1st for September's usage. At the start of September, 1,000 litres of diesel cost about $1,350. By the end of the month it had risen to about $1,540. I really need the funds for this month or the power will be disconnected once again. On top of the generator bill, other expenses are also due, all at the same time: Generator bill: over $400 (urgent) EDL electricity: $160, covering two months Rent for October: $310 Internet for September and October: $90 Total is over $960. I can cover around $360 myself, so we need to raise $600. Every contribution goes directly to these bills, starting with the generator. Even $5 or $10 brings us closer to keeping the power on. If you can't give, sharing this page helps more than you might think. I have already paid almost $1,000 in one go to cover September's rent and to repay the money we borrowed to get the generator electricity back on. I hate that I am asking this, but I have no other choice, we can't turn to anyone around us. Thank you for understanding, sharing our campaign, and standing with us. I truly appreciate it.
