A Mother Who Never Wanted to Ask
Her campaign stands at $0 and her family is running out of time
When Israel bombed their home, everything Yasmyn had built for her children was buried under rubble.
Their clothes.
Their blankets.
Their school supplies.
Their sense of safety.
And in Yasmyn’s own words, the line she repeats with a voice that still shakes:
“No one escaped unscathed.”
Not her.
Not her children.
Not even the smallest pieces of their daily life.
Today she stands in the ruins of her past, trying to keep her family alive with nothing but her will, and a campaign that still sits at $0.
Yasmyn never wanted to ask for help
This is the part that breaks her the most.
She has always worked.
She has always provided.
She has always carried her family with dignity.
Even now…with her hand injured in the bombing, swollen and in desperate need of surgery, she still forces herself to work at a clay oven.
The heat burns her skin.
The smoke stings her eyes.
Her injured hand throbs with every movement.
But she keeps going because her children need to eat.
She didn’t want to ask strangers for help.
She didn’t want to expose her suffering.
She didn’t want to be here.
But Israel’s bombing left her with no choice.
The medical needs Yasmyn can no longer ignore
Her hand requires urgent surgery, a surgery not available in Gaza.
She needs treatment abroad, but she cannot even begin that journey without support.
- Monthly medication: $150
- Medical device for Jamal: $300
These are not luxuries.
These are the costs of survival.
The essentials Yasmyn’s family lost when their home was bombed
Everything they owned was destroyed.
Now they need:
- Food: $300 per month
- Clothing for the children: $200
- School supplies: $100
- New tent cover: $150
- Blankets and bedding: all lost under the rubble
This is not comfort.
This is not stability.
This is the bare minimum required to keep her children warm, fed, and safe.
Yasmyn’s message to the world
She is exhausted…
physically broken, emotionally overwhelmed,
and carrying the weight of survival alone.
She writes not with anger, but with heartbreak:
She has no support except Allah
and the kindness of people who choose to care.
She is not asking for luxury.
She is not asking for ease.
She is asking for dignity, for the chance to give her children a future that has not already been stolen.
A campaign at $0 — but a mother still fighting
It is devastating to imagine:
A mother pours her truth, her pain, her desperation into a plea for help…
and the world has not yet answered.
But this silence can be broken.
A single donation, even the smallest one, becomes more than money.
It becomes acknowledgment.
It becomes dignity.
It becomes hope.
Your kindness can save an entire family.
