I'm sorry, Ayman - the delay isn't on my end. hoping you get a response from GoFundMe soon.

I don't know! I'm sorry - I don't know when the platform releases donations to you.

Yes! Nearly two days ago. I‘m sorry that your donor platform hasn’t released the funds to you yet - it looks like you have a number of people who want to support you ❤️‍🩹

Its a horrible situation and no one in Gaza deserves this. Thank you for the opportunity to help support you, and I'm glad to see that others are as well.

I'm sorry - It looks like it went through about a day ago. the good news is that lots of folks seem to be donating to your fund, and hopefully GoFundMe will release the money to you today.

I did, Rozan - hopefully you’re getting lots of support and that’s why you didn’t realize.
