AboFlah had been living in the glass box, live-streaming the experience to the 24 million subscribers on his YouTube channel, to raise money with an aim to help ten thousand refugees and needy people across the region.

The money was raised with the help of over 1,55,000 donors, to provide mattresses, food, blanket and clothing to refugee families in Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, and the vulnerable living in Egypt and Syria, reported The National.

AboFlah had similarly raised one million dollars in a span of 28 hours by appealing to his audience for help, during a youtube live stream on October 29, 2021, in cooperation with The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHRC).
