What would you do to save his smile?
I grew up taking care of my little sisters and baby cousins, so when Yousef al-Habil messaged me from Palestine with the story of his beautiful infant son Majd, my heart broke. No family should have to protect their child without a support system, and Majd is growing up in an environment that exacerbates his already severe respiratory illness. He’s currently hospitalized in the Gaza strip, relying on an oxygen tank, but this is temporary; in order to recieve further treatment, the al-Habil family must evacuate the war zone, which is where you come in.
In Yousef’s own words:
“I am Yousef Al-Habil. I created this campaign to help my family evacuate to a safe place, and so that I can treat my son, who has been suffering from a chest crisis since the beginning of the war in Gaza and needs urgent surgery. During this war, I lost my home, my car, and my source of income. Currently, I am homeless and without any source of income. Therefore, I hope that every living conscience will help me and donate what they can.”
The funds raised will be allocated towards:
- Securing safe relocation for the al-Habil family away from the war zone.
- Covering essential medical expenses for Majd’s treatment outside of Gaza.
- Providing basic necessities and essentials during this crisis.
Yousef cannot save his son alone, and neither can I. No matter how small or large your donation, you are helping a family who needs it.
