Help 17-year-old Artist Hussain Evacuate from Gaza
United States
—-
Note: This fundraiser is run by a group of volunteers based in the U.S., China, and Mexico. Hussain, who is fundraising for his own family’s evacuation, also reached out to volunteers to make a fundraiser for his brother Issam.
Hussain, Issam, and their family were forced to fled to a residence of family friends in Deir al-Balah on October 13. The neighbors who gave them transportation were slain, and the house they were staying in was shelled. They now’re living in terrible conditions in a small tent with no windows, doors, electricity, or water, while facing significant loss of family and friends. Below are Hussain’s and Issam’s words that they want to share with you.

Hussein Al Jerjawi is my name, and I’m from Gaza, Palestine. With a shattered heart, I am writing to ask for your assistance on behalf of my family and myself. For over half a year, we had been living in constant anxiety, never knowing what the day would bring. With your generous assistance, you have the potential to offer my family and I hope and a way out of this terrible existence that we have lived and continue to live every day.
I am a talented and passionate 17-year-old artist and photographer. I am interested in art and comic drawing and am seeking to develop my talent. I was very active in the art community before this war started.
I participated in many art galleries and actively participated in workshops, and I also worked with children to entertain them in schools. During this time, I have also been taking on small projects to help my family and I get through these rough days, but it seems that whatever happens, we cannot manage to get through this without asking for your support. My dreams of creating and selling paintings together with my friends have now been replaced with grief, as several have passed away or relocated out of Gaza. All of us are living together in this nightmare that we wish we could wake up from.
