Since my last post back in October, Seraj and Toshina posted the following updates to their campaign, Help Seraj, Farah and their family get treatment abroad:
December 30, 2024 (Seraj Ouda):
It’s almost 1am now and even now my family and I are feeling cold all over our bodies like a disease is spreading. Anyone who wants to help us, please donate to us.

About the Manager of my Fundraiser:
I am Toshina Smith, an American activist from the USA. I manage and send the money received from fundraising for Seraj, Farah and their family. Seraj suffers from many diseases and poisoning as a result of what the occupation did to him when he was tortured, abducted and unlawfully arrested through displacement. Farah suffers from a chronic disease, and as a result of the war it has caused multiple complications. Life threatening complications. Seraj has not talked about his sister Farah’s illness to the public in order to preserve the psychological state of his sister, Farah and his family along with his parents personal wishes for privacy. Honestly Farah is dying slowly and Seraj, their parents and the rest of the family are all going through a very difficult situation. In addition to Farah and Seraj suffering from disease and illness Seraj’s father also suffers from heart disease. Which as you can imagine is only worse with the mweight of the world on his shoulders trying to keep his family as safe as possible during a genocide. I ask you to help them in anyway you can, donate, share and please always pray for them. It breaks my heart a million times over. However knowing this family, loving them as my own and being “part” of their family has inspired me forever and I will always be grateful for them and for truly changing my life. This is something I have witnessed over and over again from Palestinians, who are some of the greatest teachers of grace, integrity and human kindness I have ever met. May we all strive to be like them. Please Feel free to email through GoFundMe with any questions you may have or send me a message. Thank you for your time, love and support

Farah, my family and I thank everyone who stood by us and we send you love. I have raised the ceiling of the fundraising campaign due to the high prices of food and medicine and the living conditions we are living in, and because I am on the verge of undergoing some surgeries that I will undergo here due to the border closure and Farah and I cannot go out for treatment. We thank you for your understanding in these difficult circumstances that we are living in, and I want to tell you that the situation is very catastrophic. At the end of this update, I hope that Farah, my family and I will live in a safe environment, a safe future and a life full of security.
As of this post, this campaign is 96% towards its goal. So if you want to help Seraj and his family, feel free to donate and/or share.
