JUST ONE
Today, you can deliver one year of safety to one family who lost everything.
Imagine this. Right now, in Cairo, Egypt, a Palestinian mother who fled Gaza is sitting in a dark room with her children. Her family was killed in the war. She has no legal status, she can't work, and she can't feed her children. But you have the power to change that. Not for all refugees, but for this one family.
Campaign Concept
Through JUST ONE, my aim is to raise 400,000 yen (excluding crowdfunding platform fees) to support one family selected by a trusted group in Cairo. Priority will be given to single-mother families who lost their husbands in the war and are facing the impossible task of caring for their children alone.
This donation will directly provide one family with one year of necessities:
1. Safe housing
2. Nutritious food
3. Children's education
4. Medical care
5. Daily essentials
My goal is to provide them with one year of stability and hope.
This project is my personal activity and mission. I launched this project with the help of a former student from Egypt, Salma Moguib. We will collaborate with a group of volunteers from Network for Palestine (NFP) in Cairo, who support displaced families from Gaza. NFP will select the family to receive support from the JUST ONE campaign. Priority will be given to a single-parent family torn apart by war and unable to earn a legal income.
To ensure that the support is provided, I receive the funds in Japan, transfer them to Salma, and she will distribute the money directly to a family on a monthly basis. This direct payment system avoids long-term payment delays and ensures that support is delivered when the family needs it most.
RETURN

Finally
Supporting one family may seem like a small act. But it has a life-changing meaning for that family. The initial goal of 400,000 yen will cover one family's living expenses for one year. I hope that JUST ONE will grow into a larger effort to help more Palestinian families rebuild their lives.
Campaign will be launched in Japan on camp-fire.jp
