Hello everyone, thank you all for your support so far! Youssef’s wife and child made it safely to Egypt. Unfortunately, we are still in need of funds to get Youssef to safety and let him be reunited with his family. Please keep sharing this fundraiser if you can to help us bring our circus friend to safety as soon as possible!

"My name is Youssef Khader,
I work in the field of children's entertainment in Gaza.
I practice circus, gymnastics and sports. I am a contemporary dancer, since I was 18 years old. I was looking for the development of the world in the field of circus. I love the whole world. I have the power of love and sowing joy in the hearts of children. I won the Gaza champion in gymnastics for 4 years in Gaza.
Every day, it becomes more difficult."

We want to make it clear that this is not a fundraiser for Free Gaza Circus, this is a fundraiser for circus artist and teacher Youssef Khadr and his family. The original fundraiser has been updated and the first Facebook post has been deleted to make it clear that this fundraiser is personal to Youssef. We apologize for the misunderstanding. We do encourage people to follow Free Gaza Circus page and support their amazing work!
