Please help me, Said Durrah provide Aid for my people of Gaza

As a comedian my job is to make people laugh.  But I will admit it is hard to laugh when you see a wave of conflict hit my mother's home town of Gaza, this has left many Palestinians dead or injured. Over 800 homes and 13 schools have been damaged or destroyed, and many are without access to electricity, food, or medical supplies. 

In Gaza which is only 25 miles long by 5 miles wide there is over 22,000 orphans below 18 years. Almost one third of them turned orphans due to one of the three latest wars. Additionally, many of them have witnessed bomb blasts and violence in their neighborhood and sometimes those that caused losing the father and or other family members.

In a place so small it will always hit home

Nothing is more nerve wrecking then watching your mom late at night trying to see if her family is safe from the attacks.  In an area so small that you can run a marathon from one end to the other conflict will always affect you.  In a recent airstrikes that hit Gaza, a missile hit a park killing my cousin who was playing soccer.  He was just a kid from high school who left his home with nothing but a soccer ball. He would never return home.

So please support my cause 

I am asking for your help to support my cause, all money will be going to Islamic Relief USA who is helping support programs on the ground.  Islamic Relief USA helps Orphans and their families.  They also have feeding programs during the month of Ramadan.  Your support can also provide medical intervention for those in need.
