My name is Edie, and my friend Maysara is trying to survive in Gaza.
Maysara lives with his two children, aged 7 and 6, and his elderly parents in the north of Gaza.
They were recently struck by a bombing and Maysara was almost killed. A number of his family members were injured. They're in urgent need of emergency healthcare and medication, which they're struggling to afford. On top of this, Maysara's parents have long term health issues which require ongoing healthcare costs.
Since October 2023, they have already been displaced multiple times.
Maysara's long term goal is to rebuild their family home in the north of Gaza. In the meantime, however, any money raised will support their survival day-to-day.
