Story 01

Fatima

Gaza, Palestine

Day 3 reach

Before the war, I walked to school every morning. When airstrikes hit our neighborhood, we fled with nothing. UMMA reached us on Day 3.

01 · Before

School-bound. Stable family of six.

02 · Crisis

Airstrike hit the block. They fled.

03 · Reach

Day 3 — food, water, shelter.

04 · Now

Weekly packages. Temp learning center.
