From War to Hope: Help a Father Rebuild His Family
Help Muhannad Mourtga Rebuild His Life My name is Muhannad Mourtga. I am a husband and a father of two beautiful boys—Zaid, who is 4 years old, and Kareem, who is 8. We are originally from Gaza Strip, Palestine, where we lived a modest but happy life. However, the war has taken everything from us—our home, our workplace, and the stability we worked so hard to build. In the midst of the violence, we managed to escape to Jordan, seeking safety and a chance to start anew. While we are grateful to be alive, life here is extremely difficult. We have no home, no stable income, and no clear path forward. As a father, it breaks my heart to see my family in this state, struggling to meet even the most basic needs. Despite the hardships, I am determined to rebuild our lives. My dream is to buy a small car so I can work as a delivery driver for a local app. This will allow me to provide food, shelter, and a better future for my wife and children. It may seem like a small step, but it is a lifeline for us—a way to regain dignity and stability in an otherwise hopeless situation. I am reaching out to you, kind-hearted people, to help me achieve this dream. The funds raised will go towards purchasing a reliable used car and covering the initial costs of starting work, such as registration, insurance, and app fees. Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a tremendous difference in our lives. Your generosity will not just help us survive; it will help us live again. It will allow me to stand on my own two feet and give my children the life they deserve—a life of safety, opportunity, and hope. Thank you for taking the time to read our story. Please consider supporting us and sharing our campaign with others. Together, we can turn despair into hope and give my family a chance to rebuild. With gratitude, Muhannad Mourtga

2ila al Nas (To the People)

Solidarity with Lebanon

2ila al Nas (To the People)
“2ila al nas” is a social and humanitarian youth organization founded in January 2024, aiming to unite young people around local cooperative work to support the community at various stages. Before the expansion of the Israeli war on Lebanon, the organization visited our people along the border, providing them with essential supplies. In September, the organization facilitated the reception of displaced individuals in several areas of Beirut and villages in Northern Metn, such as Zaroun, Dhour El Choueir, and Mtein. Since then, it has been assisting in meeting the needs of displaced people in 11 shelter centers, in addition to supporting more than 2,000 individuals in homes across Beirut, Metn, and Keserwan. جمعية "إلى الناس" هي منظمة اجتماعية وإنسانية شبابية تأسست في كانون الثاني 2024، وتهدف إلى توحيد الشباب حول العمل التعاوني المحلي لدعم المجتمع في مختلف المراحل. قبل توسّع الحرب الإسرائيلية على لبنان، قامت الجمعية بزيارة أهلنا على الشريط الحدودي وتوفير الأساسيات لهم. وفي أيلول، سهّلت الجمعية استقبال النازحين في عدة مناطق في بيروت وقرى المتن الشمالي، مثل زرعون، ضهور الشوير، والمتين. ومنذ ذلك الحين، تساهم في تلبية احتياجات النازحين في 11 مركز إيواء، بالإضافة إلى دعم أكثر من 2000 شخص في المنازل ضمن بيروت والمتن وكسروان. تركّز الجمعية بشكل أساسي على توفير الاحتياجات الطبية، الفُرش والبطانيات، المواد الغذائية، إلى جانب تنظيم برامج ثقافية وترفيهية تهدف إلى خلق بيئة سليمة ومستقرة لأهلنا النازحين.

I am Mohammed, 35 years old, father of four children Yasser, Ahmed, Rose and my one-month-old daughter Nada I launched this campaign to help me buy food, milk, diapers, medicine, water and daily necessities for my children My wife, children and I are currently living in difficult circumstances because of what happened after October 7 Our lives have become miserable, suffering and thinking about what is coming I am afraid of losing a member of my family I am afraid of dying of hunger or bombing I am afraid that I will not be able to continue We deserve to live in safety. I was thinking of leaving Gaza as soon as possible with my family. The amounts required to evacuate us from Gaza with my children were very large. They asked us for $5,000 per adult and $2,500 per child. I need $20,000 to leave with my family. Is this reasonable? Where can I get this amount? The income per person in Gaza does not exceed ten dollars. Please, I am really sad. Help my family. We need you. We are dying of hunger every day because of the lack of food in the markets and the high prices. Until now, I have lost 29 of my cousins ​​and I do not know when the time will come when I will leave this world, so please stay by my side until that time. Please do not leave us to suffer. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. You do not know that any simple thing you can do to help me will make a difference, even if it is simple in helping my children.

Funding the Gap: Support the Displaced in Lebanon

Funding the Gap: Support the Displaced in Lebanon
The war on Lebanon rages on and the number of displaced people is constantly increasing as Israel expands its attacks on densely populated civilian towns and neighborhoods across South Lebanon and the Bekaa. Humanitarian aid initiatives are also increasing, but more is still needed, with a large number of families stranded off the radar of these initiatives. Reefna (our countryside) is an association based in Southern Lebanon that aims to create open and diverse spaces for dialogue and thinking and to build bridges between different communities in Lebanon. Through our network of friends and supporters we have gained access to an increasing number of families that are stranded in different displacement locations with little access, if any at all, to basic services. We are trying to fill some of the many gaps. Today we are in touch with more than 500 families who are off the radar of humanitarian assistance, and we intend to change that, with your support. The needs are enormous, with winter closing in. We aim to provide dry food assistance, mattresses, medicine, and baby care essentials and female hygiene products for those in need. These families have rough moments ahead of them, help us make them feel hopeful, resilient and not abandoned. Our work has started with the support of our friends, but we need to scale up our support and expand our reach to fund the increasing gap.

Les initiatives d’aide humanitaire se multiplient, mais elles restent insuffisantes, laissant de nombreuses familles en dehors du champ d’action de ces initiatives. Reefna (notre campagne) est une association basée dans le Sud du Liban qui vise à créer des espaces ouverts et diversifiés pour le dialogue et la réflexion, tout en bâtissant des ponts entre les différentes communautés au Liban. Grâce à notre réseau d’amis et de soutiens, nous avons pu identifier un nombre croissant de familles bloquées dans différents lieux de déplacement, avec peu ou pas d’accès aux services de base. Nous essayons de combler certaines des nombreuses lacunes existantes. Aujourd’hui, nous sommes en contact avec plus de 500 familles qui échappent à la portée des initiatives humanitaires, et nous avons l’intention de changer cela avec votre soutien. Les besoins sont immenses, alors que l’hiver approche. Nous avons pour objectif de fournir une aide alimentaire sèche, des matelas, des médicaments, ainsi que des produits essentiels pour les soins des bébés et l’hygiène féminine à ceux qui en ont besoin. Ces familles traversent des moments difficiles. Aidez-nous à leur donner de l’espoir, à renforcer leur résilience et à leur montrer qu’elles ne sont pas abandonnées. Notre travail a commencé grâce au soutien de nos amis, mais nous devons intensifier nos efforts et élargir notre portée pour répondre à des besoins en constante augmentation.
