Fares ElMadhoun Gaza Fundraiser: Urgent Support Needed

The Fares ElMadhoun Gaza fundraiser shines a light on the resilience of a young student whose life was turned upside down by war. At just 25 years old, Fares ElMadhoun was wounded in an air strike, leaving him with shrapnel in both his lungs and liver. Despite his critical condition, he remains trapped in Gaza, unable to travel abroad for the surgery he urgently needs. His daily reality is one of danger, displacement, and struggle, yet he still clings to the hope of survival and education.

Before the aggression escalated, Fares was studying accounting at university. His dream was to graduate, build a career, and secure a dignified life for himself and his family. That dream has been violently interrupted. Repeated displacement forced his family south, only for them to later return to northern Gaza where bombing continues and the cost of food has soared beyond reach. For Fares, survival now means finding enough food, medicine, and stability to keep going one day at a time.
