After three years of war and genocide, during which I lost almost everything… my home, my job, my stability, and everything I had built through years of hard work. But they could not take my dream away from me. I am a civil engineer from Gaza. My workplace was destroyed, my life changed completely, and I found myself facing a reality I never chose. But I refuse to let the war be the end, and I refuse to spend the rest of my life held captive by what it destroyed. Today, I am starting over, not because the road has become easier, but because giving up is not an option. This semester, I began studying for a master’s degree in Geomatics Engineering, taking my first steps toward reclaiming my future and fulfilling my dream of becoming a successful engineer who contributes his knowledge and experience to rebuilding my homeland and reconstructing what the war has destroyed. I may have lost years of my life, countless opportunities, and the security I had every right to enjoy, but I still have the determination to start from scratch, even if I have to carve my way through the rubble. We, the people of Gaza, may have our homes destroyed, our jobs taken away, and our dreams scattered by war, but it will never decide on our behalf how our story ends. This is not merely the beginning of my master’s studies; it is the beginning of a new battle, a battle of knowledge, determination, and rebuilding the future. I will keep moving forward, for myself, for my children, and for a homeland that deserves to rise again. 🇵🇸❤️ A photo from my bachelor’s degree graduation celebrations in Civil Engineering.❤️

In Gaza, missiles do not just steal homes and lives; they also leave painful scars that haunt children from their very first moments in life. 💔

My children ask me every day: “Dad, how long will we have to keep living in a tent?” And I remain unable to answer… Tell us, how long will this pain continue, and when will the day come when our children can find safety in a home worthy of their childhood?💔

Good morning, my dear friends. I hope your day begins with peace and kindness. I’m still $500 short of completing my first-semester tuition for my master’s degree in Geomatics Engineering. After three years of war and displacement, I refuse to give up on my dream. Please, help me take the final step. Even $5 or $10 can make a difference. If you can’t donate, sharing this post means so much. 🥺🙏 🔗 chuffed.org/project/201067

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, my dear friend, for your continuous support for me and my family, and for everything you do for us. I hope this message reaches the hearts of those who can lend us a helping hand. My friends, we need you. Please, donate whatever you can and share our campaign. Help us survive amid this genocide in Gaza. Every contribution, no matter how small, means so much to us. 🥺🙏 chuffed.org/project/201067 @outerspacepace ❤️🫂

Can you imagine what it feels like to receive a phone call from someone threatening to kill you, saying: “Do you want to die alone, or do you want you and your family to die together? This is what we have been experiencing in Gaza recently at the hands of the Israeli occupation, before families are targeted and killed. Terrifying threats that leave a person facing two choices, each more painful than the other: to face death alone, or to put their family’s lives at risk alongside their own. 💔😭

My dream is at risk of stopping just $500 short. 💔 My dear friends, I’ve survived three years of war, lost so much, and endured displacement, yet I refuse to give up on my dream of earning my master’s degree in Geomatics Engineering. I’m still $500 short of completing my first-semester tuition fees. I’ve fought so hard to reach this point, and I don’t want financial hardship to force me to abandon my education now. Please, help me finish what I started. Every $5 or $10 brings me closer to continuing my studies and rebuilding a future for myself and my children. Please don’t scroll past without helping. If you can’t donate, sharing this post could make all the difference. 🥺🙏 🔗 chuffed.org/project/201067

All we wish for is to live in peace, and to find a little safety and tranquility in this life after all this pain. 💔

Any donation, no matter how small, means a lot to me. 🙏

Just moments ago, Israeli occupation forces bombed a building at the Islamic University of Gaza, the university where I am pursuing my master’s degree in Geomatics Engineering. 💔 Even our universities and dreams have not been spared from the bombing, and our future has become threatened with destruction, in an attempt to deprive us of education and take away what little hope we have left.
