Help us find a safe tiny apartment for a homeless mother with 2 kids that have been sent to streets by uncles after father's death, 1 dollar in Egypt is worth around 20 egyptian pounds, so any help would make a difference, we have raised 16,000 of 58,000 egp so far for a small apartment the amount left is only like 2700 $ to you but to us it's a great amount of money, any extra money would be for utilities and clothes so please help them, they are really really nice. And here's their story, I was on my way to work one morning when I saw a lady sleeping on the street with 2 kids between her arms, my heart immediately skipped a beat and I couldn't help but stepping in and try to help, I only had a 122egp with me so I tried to wake the lady up so she could take the 100 I could give her but she wouldn't take it and said it was a lot!!! she asked me to bring her kids food instead, I brought them food and drinks and asked her what happened, she started crying while telling me they used to live in a 1 bedroom apartment with her husband and 2 brothers and their mother one of her husband's brother is married with 3 kids, and how she was never welcomed there because she got there after the other wife that didn't want more people in such a small apartment, she told me how they hated her and treated her and her kids poorly and how her husband's mother would beat and slap her in front of everyone. She said her husband has been sick and recently died and after 3 days of his death she came home to find her kids down the building with a plastic bag where the uncles put their stuff in, she tried to get back in and eventually stayed 2 nights down the building but the uncles would beat her to leave and go away so she finally did. I went to work and couldn't stop thinking about how to help them. I saw them on my way home and felt so bad cause I had a place to go after work.. I have a roof above my head, food and bed. I went home where I had 2000 savings I went to my parents told them all and said I have the first fund and that we need to help, they are currently staying on the staires of our building but the neighbors aren't happy and want to get rid of them, mom and dad helped and so did everyone I know but it's a lot of money to raise in a short time, so I was telling my friend: "if only I was paid in dollars" and she said "some people are, why don't you ask for donations online" and here I am. If only you knew them you would have loved them, Ahmed and Nada are adorable and smart, they say thank you and laugh at your silly jokes, they come running with hugs and kisses and they just deserve better. Btw this picture isn't them but it's exactly how they were when I first saw them, but unfortunately I'm not a camera person and I never thought about taking a picture of them because they are not for a drama show but I can ask them to take pictures for donations and update you and I sure will after they settle in the apartment we found.
