LUBNA’S STORY

Lubna, 37, never expected to find herself facing life alone, carrying the responsibility of raising four children after losing her husband to a stroke in 2018. Since then, every aspect of her life has changed, and her days have revolved around trying to meet her children's needs and provide them with a more stable life, despite limited resources and difficult circumstances.

Lubna faces a daily struggle to meet her family's needs. Her four children, aged between 13 and 18, each have their own needs according to their age and daily requirements. As they grow older, their needs increase, and some things they wish for become essential to their comfort and well-being. Yet, under their difficult living conditions, these needs remain out of reach.

Lubna relies on a modest monthly income that barely covers the family's basic expenses, forcing her to constantly prioritize and put necessities before everything else. Other needs that could make her children's lives more comfortable or improve their living conditions are repeatedly postponed, gradually becoming wishes that are difficult to fulfill.

Despite all the challenges she faces, Lubna never stops trying. She hopes to see her children enjoy greater comfort and to be able to meet their needs without having to postpone them whenever finances become tight. Her wishes are simple, but fulfilling them requires support beyond what she can provide on her own.

With your support, you can stand alongside Lubna and her four children, helping provide the essentials they have been waiting for and giving them the opportunity to enjoy a more comfortable and stable life, while bringing hope to dreams that have been postponed for far too long.
