help safaa and abed's family 🖤

follow @safaabed8 and @abedalazeiz verified by 90-ghost note: safaa + her family has had to make multiple accounts- they have all either been suppressed/terminated (this is also why the verification/reblogs from ibtisams/heba-20 no longer have working links)

dear moots/lovely lurkers,

i am not sure how to start this- what iteration of words will move a kind stranger to action or convince another that this passage is worth the five minutes it'll take to read it

would you be inclined to learn just how a body shuts down after being malnourished for so long? or what lengths families must go to in order to survive? perhaps a retelling of the rising temperatures-- how everything from the contaminated water they drink to the dirty pillows they lay on is hot will be enough

do you need me to lay it out so plainly that your stomachs churn and your eyes well up with tears? are you waiting to feel that pang inside your chest- the one that screams "enough is enough." do you look at safaa's beautiful family and think they deserve more?

would you still feel that way even if i told you nothing at all?

---

safaa's family has managed to raise just short of 50% of their goal (€24,809 / €50,000)- campaigns require a sustained, collective effort for them to be successful. more importantly, the onus is on the rest of us to uplift stories the world will do anything to suppress. please don't leave them unheard-- donate if you can, share so others may help as well

Zeina and Doaa

Mona (mona__98) (Number 6 on the Vetted List (Post with links to her campaigns)), promoted the following campaign from zeinaanddoaa on her Instagram Story

Zeina and Doaa are 295 on the Vetting List, and she is Mona's niece

Her commentary, with a picture of the young girl named Zeina:

Duaa needs your support, she didn't collect many donations because she doesn't have followers, don't hesitate to help her I know you may be tired of fundraising links and donation campaigns, but there are many people who need your help, even if it is just by sharing

Doaa is a teacher and a mother, and Zeina is her daughter in kindergarten. Their life, unfortunately, has been completely uprooted. They've been displaced more than five times. Doaa has contracted hepatitis, Zeina has had various ailments since their initial displacement.

In order to survive, they've made this campaign.

My daughter is the most precious thing I have. I want her to have a decent life

Donate: Your contribution, no matter the size, makes a tangible difference. Share: Increase our reach by sharing this campaign with your friends and family. Engage: Follow our updates and help spread the word about my story.Consider my child, Zeina, as if she were your child.

Please look at little Hamoud, and his specimen of a cat in Al Zawaydah. Such floof.

Hamoud and many other Palestinian children like him benefit greatly from Gaza Soup Kitchen. Please consider sharing and donating to help the people of Palestine in northern Gaza!

true gender liberation will never happen until the queer community can see masculinity as something which can be a real expression of self and which is worth protecting and loving

The situation is catastrophic now in Gaza after the heavy rain and winds this week. Did you know that families in Gaza are sheltered only by some pieces of nylon and that the cold is very severe? My family is suffering from severe cold.

There is no shelter to protect them from the bitter cold. Their help will save my family’s lives from starvation and may help them flee Gaza soon after the crossings are opened soon.

I know that most of you are desperate and bored of constantly asking us for help. But how many times do you see the world and governments that did not look at us with mercy?

Only people with compassionate hearts like you help and sympathize with the afflicted.

Your continued support saves the lives of all my families. Support link here

URGENT : Last week , this child, my nephew, was bombed next to the tents in which we live and burned, causing this child to burn, but we hoped that he would improve, but unfortunately his condition is urgent and very dangerous. I hope you support this child. It just made him smile when he heard that there were people who would care about him

I am writing this post on behalf of my friend Ibrahim @aburakhiaibrahim. He has a large family with 28 members, 15 of whom are children.

Ibrahim's family's home was destroyed by an airstrike. Despite the destruction, they still stay in their ruined home, as they have no where else to go. Their damaged home offers little protection from the increasing cold weather and heavy rains that have been occurring in Gaza.

As well of this, his family is suffering from malnutrition. Food and water are very expensive and hard to get. Sometimes Ibrahim will have to stand in a line for hours in the cold, just in hopes of getting enough water to drink.

Ibrahim has been fundraising for a long time, but he has not made much progress. Originally, he hoped to raise enough money for his family to evacuate. However, with the crossing closed, he now just wants the funds to keep himself and his family alive.

Ibrahim has lowered his goal to 30,000 CAD. However, donations have continued to be sluggish, and his family is suffering from lack of food and water. Sometimes he goes for over a day without any donations.

$7,536 / $30,000 CAD ($5,390 / $21,456 USD)

Ibrahim's family is cold and starving. He just wants to provide for his family's basic needs, like food, water, and shelter for the coming winter. Please, help him. You can make a difference in his family's lives. Share and donate, anything you can give helps!

10 CAD = 7.15 USD 10 USD = 14 CAD

my friend siraj abudayeh (vetted on line 219), who i've posted about frequently, has been fundraising for his family's daily survival since june of this year. read more about him here, here, and here. follow him here: @siraj2024. he is a journalist who writes frequent updates about the situation in gaza, and it is always better to get the story from the source than filtered through a western lens.

as of about a week ago, he had raised over $90,000 CAD / $64,000 USD. he had withdrawn a portion of it to pay for various daily needs, medical care, and rent.

his fundraiser had been under investigation for a few weeks and the organizer, his cousin, even sent all of their government IDs to verify that they are real people.

despite this, gofundme deleted his fundraiser a week ago. he lost over $38,000 CAD ($27,000 USD). that is a monumental loss that would devastate anyone. but in gaza, it is the loss of a lifeline.

gofundme has a pattern of baselessly investigating and terminating fundraisers benefiting palestinians, often waiting until the campaign has reached the end of its goal to terminate it and refund all donors, leaving the refugees in the dust.

in the hopes of continuing to keep his family alive while unchecked capitalism and gang violence in gaza are on the rise, and in the midst of constant bombardment, displacement, and death, siraj has opened another gofundme. this fundraiser is in his sister's name, and is being organized by a trusted friend of his who lives abroad. we hope it will not be met with the same fate as the old one.

if you donated to siraj's old gofundme, please request a refund and re-send the donation to the new link here

thank you

"Don’t we have the right to live like other women in the world?"

I am Hilda, a Palestinian woman living in Gaza, carrying my first child amidst an unrelenting war. Pregnancy was supposed to be a time of joy and anticipation, but the war has changed everything😥

@hildanasr1 gfm

Since our home in Shuja’iyya was destroyed, my husband and I have been living in a tent in southern Gaza. Here, we face the biting cold of winter, the scorching heat of summer, and the relentless intrusion of insects and reptiles. It feels as though I’m locked in a constant struggle with both nature and reality, yet I strive to find a glimmer of hope in the darkest moments.🙏🥺

🍉🇵🇸🍉🇵🇸

I place my hand on my belly and feel the heartbeat of life within me—it’s the only thing keeping me grounded. I wonder what kind of future this child will have. How will they grow up in a world steeped in fear and destruction❓

My sister’s children, Rima and Saleh, give me strength. I try to be a source of comfort and protection for them in a world that feels so unforgiving, even when I feel like I need that protection myself.

Fear is my constant companion. I’m afraid to leave the tent, and I’m afraid to stay inside it. I long for a single moment of safety—a moment where I can breathe without this crushing weight on my chest. Still, I refuse to give up.

I am Hilda. I carry hope in my heart despite the war, dreaming of a better future for my family, no matter how long or difficult the journey ahead may be.

PLEASE DON’T SKIP ✋🇵🇸

Hello everyone…

I’m Ruba Khaled Khader , I’m 20 years old , I’m from Gaza , me and my family of 8 person evacuated from Gaza to south Gaza Strip during the war .

I want to help my self and my family , so I will tell you my sad story

Before the war we had a great life full of pleasure and blessings , we had a beautiful , warm and big house , but unfortunately our house was damaged due to the ongoing Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip.

Also before the war I was about to marry my fiancee , his name is Yosef Ezz Eldeen Abo Steta , we had planned to have our wedding in February 2024 but because of the war we haven’t gotten married yet and all our dreams of living a happy life have been shattered

Also my house was destroyed and burned by the Israeli occupation and all my new wedding clothes were burned and I have nothing left.

My fiancée and I don't see each other very often because he and his amily evacuated to a place far from where I live and the transportation is difficult and expensive.

It has been 2 years since I engaged my fiancée and we want to get married but we don’t have a place to live in and we don’t have the means to live.

And I’m studying software engineering at Al-Ahar University and the university started an online education and my fiancée have to pay to the university so I can complete my education but he don’t have money or a source of income or a work to pay for my education.

So please, I ask you not to stay away from our urgent appeal. Your support can make a big difference in our lives. Let us unite, and show the world the power of sympathy and solidarity in times of inhumanity. Together, we can rebuild, restore, and formulate a future full of hope and freedom. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your steadfast support in this urgent matter.

Help my family befor late 😭😭🍉🍉

Save my children from the Gaza war

My name is Rana, I am 37 years old, and I hold a master’s degree in statistics

I am married and have 4 children

Two girls 👧👧 and two boys 🧑🧑, their ages (12 / 5 /5 /2 )

My husband works as a teacher and has a group of educational centers for teaching English in Gaza, Khan Yunis, and Rafah

I live in Gaza

At the beginning of the war, our educational center, Gaza branch, was destroyed and bulldozed.

It had been opened one month before the start of the war. The war on Gaza continued, and I am still residing in my home despite the danger and threat, but I left my home on 24/1/2024 because the Israeli army requested the evacuation of the city of Khan Yunis, and for fear for my children and my husband, I went to the city of Rafah, the safe place, as the army says, and I lived in a narrow and small place.

Iam and four children, my husband, and a group of displaced people suffered from many diseases and epidemics due to lack of food. And lack of water

Then the threats began to the city of Rafah, so I left for Hamad Town, a safe area, as the Israeli army said about it, and I stayed there with my relatives, and on February 25, the second educational center, Khan Yunis branch, was completely destroyed and blown up 😭😭

On 3 March , the army besieged Hamad Town, and Iam and my children, and my husband left under gunfire and the sound of shells✈️✈️ ✈️ And the fire belts🚀🚀 We left in the middle of the night on foot and continued walking for a whole day while tanks and soldiers surrounded us and we were displaced for the third time.

We returned to the city of Rafah again, but without any of the necessities of life , no clothes, no bedding, no luggage 🧥🧥

On 13 March , I received information that my house was completely destroyed. My home, my dreams, and my memories were destroyed 😭😭😭 I became homeless 😭😭😭

On 5 January , 2024, we left Rafah after the army threatened it, and we went out to Al-Mawasi and lived in a tent. Now I live in a small tent in a camp full of diseases🤧🤧 and epidemics🤮🤮

The last branch of the educational centers, the Rafah branch, was destroyed

Now I live in a tent

I fight for a living We no longer have a source of income other than aid and assistance, which are of no use

My children were deprived of education because of the war. They are now without schools

Please Help my children to escape from the hell of war in Gaza. Please help me to leave Gaza, educate my children and protect them from diseases and epidemics.

Ibrahim @wolf-aid needs your help!

PROOF OF VETTING (#25 ON THE VETTED CAMPAIGN LIST) BY @gazavetters, A GROUP OF TRUSTED CAMPAIGN VETTERS !

Ibrahim, who recently turned 16, and his family are currently scared and hungry in Gaza as Israel's genocide continues. He's been super proactive in grabbing attention so that I can boost his campaign. Instead of learning and having fun with his life and friends, Ibrahim lives in constant fear of death and further loss. He has lost too many family members, including, most recently, his uncle. He and his family, like many others in the region, are sick, starving, depressed, and extremely anxious. You can read a little more about his situation here. Ibrahim, if you're reading this, we love you!! 💙

€19,947 raised of €30,000 goal

Every amount sent his way counts. Please donate as little as 1 euro towards his campaign! If you cannot donate directly to this campaign, please send an amount below and I will donate for you!

As I am also using this account to donate for Marah's campaign, please add a note saying that you're donating to Ibrahim's campaign! Thank you :)

I am Ahlam from Gaza

I am 54 years old and have 9 daughters and a son

I suffer from kidney failure, and with limited hospital resources, I ask you to help me go out to receive treatment so that I can take care of my children.

I am displaced in tents. I have been displaced more than 10 times, and my house was bombed, and I have no shelter, and this makes my condition worse.

Every $10 or $20 will contribute to saving my family

Things that were and had suddenly changed:

When cooking oil ran out from the market, we replaced it with ghee as an alternative. So the price of ghee increased ten times. When they hoarded sugar, we started to use vanilla extract instead until sugar ran out from the market.Instant coffee is blocked from entering, and the kind that is available is now very expensive. We turned to fresh coffee instead. They started skimping with fresh coffee and its price increased dramatically. Vegetables are expensive and practically nonexistent. We started to depend on canned food. Now the can of spoilt food, peas, beans, fava beans and chickpeas, is 7 shekels (2$)

My friends, I want to clarify something very important to you, which is that all the campaign money is spent and nothing is left. This post shows you the cost of living in Gaza.

Don't look at how much the campaign has earned, but look at how many people it has spent on and how much life costs in Gaza.

Thank you for any assistance you can provide. Time is of the essence! ❤️‍🩹🙏

Welp, if JK Rowling being executive producer and therefore being fully involved in the show wasn't enough for people to boycott, then here's HBO basically saying they don't care JK Rowling is a bigot from hell who literally helped lead a harassment campaign of lies against Imane Khalif in her transphobia and obsession with women being terf's standards of women alongside posting harassment against trans people on twitter at times, they gonna stand by her, while using the excuse, "personal views". Hmm, yes, personal views- that's one way to uh, call what the fuck JK Rowling comes out with a-lot- last I checked personal views do come with consquiences if said out loud....a thousand times in JK's case and still counting....especially if they hurt people, but hey, if it means making another Harry Potter project to milk, just let it fucking be I guess.
