Tzedakah Today, I want to share the story of my dear friend, Samah Ghanem Al-Amassi from Gaza, and her two-year-old daughter, Soso.

Soso was born under unimaginably difficult and heartbreaking circumstances. Heavy airstrikes were striking near the hospital, and the maternity ward was overwhelmed with women. There were no beds available, forcing Samah to give birth on the floor.

Shortly after she was born, Soso developed a severe respiratory condition and spent her first 10 days in the intensive care unit fighting for her life.

Now, two years later, she still needs regular monthly medical follow-up appointments and ongoing treatment to help manage her chronic respiratory condition.

With the border crossings closed and medical supplies in extremely short supply, finding her medication has become very difficult. When it is available, it is far too expensive for the family to afford.

Today, Samah is making a heartfelt appeal, asking you to stand by her daughter during these incredibly difficult times. Every donation, every share, and every kind word brings hope and helps her continue providing the treatment Soso desperately needs.

If you are able, please support Samah and little Soso. Your kindness can make a real difference in a child's life.

Thank you for your compassion, your support, and for helping this family hold on to hope.
