Help Nour Return Home Safely With Her Cats
Hi, I’m sharing this on behalf of my dear friend Nour.
Nour is one of the kindest, most selfless people I know. She has always cared for others — her father, her family, even her cats — often putting their needs above her own. But right now, she is in a place no one should ever be: struggling physically, emotionally, and financially, and she cannot get through this alone.
She recently lost her job in Qatar because of an abusive manager. On top of that, she lives with multiple sclerosis (MS) and autism. Her recent MS relapse left her physically weak, and finding work while dealing with her health is nearly impossible.
Due to Qatar’s Labor Laws, her company will not pay her end-of-service or notice period settlement until her notice period ends, leaving her for two months without income, without food, and without a guaranteed place to live.
Her roommate is leaving soon, which will make her homeless. While she was in Lebanon, her roommate even threw away one of her beloved cats, Milky 💔, and she is still searching for him. Her remaining cat, Maxie has been her comfort and family through all of this.
What Nour Needs Support For:
We are asking for $6,000 (around 21,500 QAR) to cover her bare minimum needs over the next two months:
1- Credit card debt (≈10,000 QAR / $2,750): Originally used for her late father’s medical care and later for her own medical needs, and occasionally to help her family in Lebanon. Settling this is crucial for her to leave Qatar safely.
2- Rent for 2 months (≈4,000 QAR / $1,100): Either to cover her share of rent if her roommate stays, or a small partition room until she can travel.
3- Food and necessities (≈4,000 QAR / $1,100): Basic groceries, utilities, and transport.
4- Cats’ relocation (≈3,000–5,000 QAR / $830–$1,400): Covers vet care, paperwork, and travel for one or both cats, depending on whether she finds her missing cat.
Regarding her Flight ticket back home: Thankfully, the company will cover her return to Lebanon once her notice period ends according to Qatar's Labor Laws too.
Important: Why $6,000?
This will not cover everything, but combined with her end-of-service settlement, it will allow her to survive and travel safely and have some money left to kickstart her stay in Lebanon. It will also help cover a small, recent debt she owes to friends. Even reaching half of this goal would make a life-saving difference.
All Nour wants is to return home to Lebanon, to be with her family, to heal, and to start rebuilding her life. She is not asking for luxury — just a chance to survive the next two months, keep a roof over her head, and bring her cats home safely.
Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference. Even sharing her story can give her hope. Thank you for helping my friend Nour hold on to hope and come home safely. 💙
