Help Me Rebuild My Life, Complete My Education, and Support Orphaned Children

I am a Software Engineering graduate from Palestine.

Before the war, I was building my future through education, working hard for years with one goal: to become a software engineer, support my family, and create a stable life. I also dreamed of continuing my education through scholarships and improving my career.

Everything changed because of the war.

My home was destroyed, and my family and I lost our sense of safety and stability. We are now living in extremely difficult conditions, struggling every day to access basic necessities such as food, clean water, and safe shelter.

In addition to my own family’s situation, we are also taking care of orphaned children who depend on us for daily support. Providing for them has become another heavy responsibility during these very difficult circumstances.

Although I completed my university studies, I am unable to obtain my degree certificate because of unpaid tuition fees. Without it, I cannot access job opportunities or scholarships that could help me rebuild my future.

I am seeking support to raise $25,000, which will be used as follows:

- $2,800 – Pay my remaining university tuition fees and obtain my degree certificate
- $6,000 – Rent and safe housing for my family and the orphaned children
- $7,000 – Food, clean water, medicine, and essential daily living expenses
- $3,000 – Laptop, internet access, and tools needed to work remotely as a software engineer
- $3,000 – Professional training, certifications, and education opportunities
- $3,200 – Emergency and unexpected expenses during this crisis

Despite everything we have lost—our home, stability, and many opportunities—we are still trying to survive and rebuild.

Any support, no matter how small, will help me complete my education, support orphaned children, and give my family a chance to survive and rebuild a better future.

If you are unable to donate, sharing my story would mean just as much.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support.
