ok last thing. but what people fundamentally need to get through their heads is the significance of gaza fundraisers not being the same as like mutual aid when you're helping someone get groceries, because it is a genocide. there is insane deliberate scarcity and prices are unmanageable, because there is nowhere nearly enough for everyone, so only people who can pay can eat. and what positioning individual fundraisers as the only course of action does is quite simply give a tiny percentage of random people whose fundraisers take off the ability to pay those prices while thousands of others can't. and every one of those thousands of people without a fundraiser is suffering through the same inconceivably horrific reality. it is giving a few completely desperate people out of hundreds of thousands a slightly more favorable position in a horrific war economy of imposed scarcity. and what grassroots community kitchens do is try to mitigate in some small way that inconceivable hierarchy of who can pay and who can't, by stretching ingredients as far as they can last to cook meals at large scale and give them out at no cost. and obviously people are still going to send money to their friends and families because this is hell what else are we supposed to do but please just think about that before promoting endless individual fundraisers as somehow the most ethical way to help

Mohanad and Farah’s story

My husband Mohanad and I both worked as administrators at the Palace of Justice in Gaza.

We got engaged just two months before the war,

bought an apartment, and began dreaming of a new life together. But the war changed everything. Our workplace and apartment were destroyed, and we lost our jobs. Despite it all, we chose to move forward and got married in the middle of the war, with no wedding ceremony—just a simple union that symbolized resilience amid the devastation.

We’ve been displaced multiple times, each time facing a new eviction order and starting over again. We were forced to leave everything behind and flee with only a few belongings. The displacement was devastating, as we had to leave behind the life we built and the dreams we held for our future.

Today, we live in a small home in Al-Nuseirat, struggling to cover basic needs like food, water, and alternative electricity, facing monthly expenses we can hardly bear. Recently, a new eviction notice was issued for our area, and we don’t know what lies ahead. We’re searching for online work and have skills we can utilize, but finding opportunities has been very challenging under these conditions.

After renting the apartment in Nuseirat, we thought we had found a safe haven from the horrors of war. But on the night of 3-11-2024, explosions erupted nearby, and we never imagined one would hit our apartment. Suddenly, a missile struck; walls shook, parts collapsed, and windows shattered, leaving the room we had just been in destroyed.

We miraculously survived, but the place that once felt like a refuge had become a scene of chaos and destruction. With heavy hearts, we gathered what little remained and moved on once again, hoping to find shelter far from this endless devastation.

Support My Family Journey to Safety and Peace

✅ Verified campaign – please check the end of the story 🔍📌

🚨 🚨Urgent Appeal 🚨🚨

My name is Jaber Al-Haj, a graduate with honors in Applied Chemistry. I currently reside in Kuwait, but my heart and thoughts are constantly with my family, who remain in Gaza amidst the ongoing war and devastation. My wife, Muna, and our 2-year-old son, Hashem, live under the constant threat of violence and uncertainty. Every day, I worry about their safety and well-being, and my greatest wish is to bring them to Kuwait, where they can find peace, security, and a fresh start.

After graduating, I started a small cleaning products business in Gaza with my brother, Aboud. We built a modest lab from scratch, and over time, it became a stable source of income for our family. We dreamed of expanding and creating more opportunities, but our hopes were shattered when relentless airstrikes destroyed everything we had built, reducing our lab and future to rubble.

The war didn’t just take away our business; it also separated me from my family. It has been over a year since I’ve seen my wife and child in person. Unable to travel back to Gaza, I feel helpless being so far away from them during these difficult times. Despite all my efforts, it has been equally challenging to bring them to Kuwait, where I could offer them the safety and stability they so desperately need.

The Goal of This Campaign:

I am aiming to raise $29,000 to help bring my wife, Muna, and our son, Hashem, from Gaza to Kuwait, reuniting us and ensuring their safety far from the dangers of war. The funds will also help me rebuild our business in Gaza with my brother, Aboud, by securing a new location, purchasing equipment, and restarting production—giving us a chance to restore our livelihoods and hope for the future

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and for standing with us during this challenging time.

Warm regards, Jaber Al-Haj

thats the thing thats missing from america-centric discussion of fascism: this shit is global. every country in “the west” is seeing the same rise of fascism in real time, all of it focused on murdering migrants. like giorgia meloni is campaigning to deport people to “migrant camps” in albania. last year the greek coast guard outright drowned a boat of 500 asylum seekers. and as that last post said im not dismissing the suffering of people within the US, i’m just saying its so supremely frustrating that every conversation is about the minutiae of american domestic policy and not the horrifying ultranationalist global trend scapegoating arabs and africans.

Help Ahmed & Hadeel

My wife @hadeel-ahmed7

Hello everyone, Thank you for reading my story. I'm Ahmed Sadeq, I'm 30 years old, a Palestinian from Gaza.

Before the war, our life was full of happiness, where l worked for on online news newspaper.

I was preparing for my wedding to partner Hadeel which was going to take place in December 2023, I was also preparing our house for us to live in

Afrer the start of the war on Gaza, I lost my job due to constant internet outage.

Unfortunately, I lost the house in which I intended to live with my wife, Hadeel.

I had ro get married without a wedding and lived in modest tent.

We were able to leave Gaza to Egypt, with my wife and elderly parents who suffer from" chronic diseases ", by paying the evacuation cost of $5,000 per person.

Now we all live in one house in a modest neighborhood called Arbaeen in Cairo

How Funds Will Be Used:

Basic Necessities:

your generous donation will go toward help us to pay the house rent and meet our basic needs of food, drink, and clothing, in addition to medicine for my elderly parents in Egypt.

None of us have permanent residency in Egypt and therefore we can't work.

Evacuation fees:

The rest of my family members are in tents in the Al_Mawasi area inside Gaza, and you help them meet their basic needs of food, clothing, and drink.

They live in difficult conditions and are surrounded by insects and snakes.

Reconstruction:

My demolished home and my family's home in Gaza.

Your donation, no matter how small, can make a big difference in helping us, our family, and rebuilding our future. Every contribution will go directly to providing us with the support and resources we need

To get through this difficult time

Urgent Appeal for Donations to Support a Family Affected by the War in Gaza and to Help Them Travel to a Safe Place

Greetings,

My name is Mohammad Riyad Suleiman. I live in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. I am 36 years old and work as a lawyer specializing in legal and Sharia consultations. I am married and have three young daughters: Sarah, Jameela, and Rose.

Due to the ongoing war in Gaza by the Zionist entity, I have lost my source of income and am unable to meet the basic needs of my family. The war has destroyed our dreams, and I am now unable to provide food, education, or even psychological and social support for my children. We also lost the animals we relied on as an additional source of food and income.

I appeal to kind-hearted individuals to help us financially and economically. We need your support to provide:

• Food and basic necessities for my daughters.

• Psychological and social support to help them cope with the effects of the war.

• Education and healthcare.

• Clothes and other essential items that meet their needs.

In addition, we are in urgent need of traveling to a safe place, away from the ongoing horrors of war, where we can live in peace and start a new life, giving us the opportunity to rebuild our future.

My hope lies first in God, and then in the generosity of kind and benevolent people to support us in these harsh conditions. Your donation will be a lifeline for my family and will give us hope for a better tomorrow.

Save Little Prince Abdullah and His Family

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #232 )✅️

My name is Mahmoud from besieged Gaza, 25 years old.

My life was happy and beautiful before the war. I was achieving my ambitions and dreams step by step. I graduated from university—the College of Dentistry—and was ranked first among my peers, so the college offered me a position. I also started working at a private clinic.

I married my beloved dentist Abeer, and she even became pregnant. We wove dreams for our future child.

But then the war came, our life has turned upside down since the beginning of the Israeli genocide on Gaza (7th Oct. 2023), the dreams turned into nightmares, and everything was shattered.

We only spent two months in our new, happy home; we didn’t have enough time to create memories of love together. The house, the university, and the clinic were destroyed, and now I have no job to support us. We left our home under shelling and destruction, taking only a few clothes to cover ourselves. We had nowhere to go.

My wife endured her pregnancy during the war, without food, water, or medicine. We were deprived of independence and privacy in the beginning of our life together.

After six months of war, On 6th Apr. 2024, our awaited son, Abdullah, was born.

Our little prince "Abdullah" was born without any of essentials of newborn life (milk, diapers, own bed, toys, health care). Abdullah brought joy and happiness to our hearts despite what we are going through, The joy was mixed with great anxiety due to the unavailability of proper medical care.

The pressures and burdens increased, we decided to turn to the GoFundMe platform seeking help from kind-hearted people. The goal of the fundraising campaign is to provide for the needs of little prince Abdullah and secure temporary shelter for my family, in addition to helping build our clinic to enable us to return to work and serve the community once again.

We are reaching out to you for help to save a family that has struggled to survive. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in our life. Please stand with us during this difficult time and restore our hope for a better tomorrow.

Hello everyone

I will tell you my story about the war in the Gaza Strip, and I hope you will help me get out to safety. Thank you very much.

I am Ali Miqdad, 33 years old, and my wife, Aya Hamdan, 25 years old. I have two children, my beloved, who is 5 years old and Adam, who is 2 years old

In light of the war on us, we lost everything: home, money, business, and even clothes. I paid everything in the house and business that I had because of the bombing that we witnessed throughout the days. To this day, we have been displaced several times, and the first night was very difficult. In the morning, it was our first displacement and exit from the house, and then we lost. We all lost our beautiful memories and the wonderful things that me and the family used to live on

We lost our beautiful memories and the wonderful things that my family and I used to live on. The hardest thing we lost was safety and peace due to the violent bombing that surrounded us at every time and moment and in all the places to which we were displaced. Also, the days that we spent in displacement several times were difficult due to the lack of work to obtain. For money, clothes, food, water, and meeting the needs of the family and the needs of the children, especially since we are in tents and there is no healthy food or medicine due to the spread of diseases.

Through the process of repeated displacement, we lost the stable and recreational life that I used to live with my wife, my children, Habiba and Adam, who lost their beautiful childhood, the first days of their childhood, and their toys that they loved and played with all the time. My daughter, Habiba, lost her studies in kindergarten, and my wife, who suffers from fatigue and exhaustion all the time. As a result of displacement from one place to another, and from tent to tent, which completely changed the nature of our lives from a beautiful house to a tent in the middle of the street in which we sleep.

I need your cooperation and help in raising money to leave the Gaza Strip because leaving the Strip is due to the heat🙏🇵🇸

Thank you

Ali

🚨Urgent Appeal🙏

I am a Palestinian woman from Khan Younis. I lost my home during the war, and today I am living in a simple tent with my three children. Life here is extremely difficult; we are suffering from a severe lack of safe shelter, food, and medical care.

My young children are experiencing health issues, particularly skin problems, due to the heat and harsh living conditions. My heart breaks when I see them suffering, and I cannot provide the necessary care for them.

My husband is away, trying to secure a livelihood for us, but he is facing significant challenges in life and maintaining our family despite the distance. We are striving to reunite our family, but the costs are high, and we do not have enough to meet our daily needs.

I appeal to your kind hearts and ask for your help in alleviating our suffering. Any contribution, no matter how small, will have a significant impact on our lives. I also kindly request that you share our story to protect my children and enable us to reunite with my husband once more.

Please, do not hesitate to lend a helping hand.

Most of us will never know the agony of being a parent that does everything to provide for their child, only to keep coming up empty. Of the immense suffering and self-loathing that comes with being responsible for this little life, and feeling like you're failing: to keep them safe, warm, sheltered, fed. Of holding your child, your toddler, your newborn, watching them slowly waste away from that relentless, gnawing hunger you can't stop (one that you feel yourself). Watching as they howl in pain, and the hollowness that comes when your child becomes too weak even to do that. All the while being totally helpless to stop it because it's not up to you.

Most of us will only see the aftermath of such a thing: a parent carrying the far-too-light shroud of their child, pictured under a headline that details how starvation has taken hold of some given population. Distant and removed from us.

Except that it isn't. There are so many desperate parents who've run out of options, for whom this isn't some abstraction, who are asking—begging—us for our help. Just so they'll be able to buy some of the shit canned food left from the last aid delivery, and a couple loaves of bread to feed their children with. Extortionately pricey because of scarcity, but it's enough to keep their children in a state of "acute malnutrition" rather than "catastrophic hunger", so they'll pay anything for it.

Attacks on NGOs & prevention of aid into Gaza puts every single person there at risk of a slow death due to starvation. Especially children, like Samah's newborn baby boy, her little 2 year-old girl, and their big sister (who's only 9). But we can help. What's pocket money for us, is an invaluable lifeline to parents like Samah. At a time when so many seem to have decided to live in an alternate universe in which deliberate starvation and mass slaughter of civilians is acceptable, we have to do what we can to oppose it. Not to push it away, to ignore it, to decide it's been going on so long we don't care or that it's hopeless so give up, but to grit our teeth, dig our heels in, and say "no, seriously, what the fuck are we doing here?"

tldr: donate to Samah so she can buy food for her kids so they don't starve to death. please. and thank you. :)

Lost at Sea, Fighting for Hope: Help Me Save My Family in Gaza

🔴 In this video, you will see me on a migration boat after I tried to swim across the sea to Greek, but my friend Ali drowned before my eyes, and I couldn’t save him 💔 May God have mercy on him🙏

I risked my life searching for a glimpse of safety and a chance at a decent life. Just when we thought the boat would take us to safety, the coast guard intercepted us and left us stranded in the middle of the sea, struggling against the waves and facing death.

Now I am in the Netherlands without residency or income yet.

Today, I have only one dream: to save my family trapped in Gaza, where death rains down on them every day😭 and hunger and fear haunt their every moment. They are waiting for rescue, and I need your help to save them before it’s too late.🙏

Hello 👋

Please take a moment to read my story.

I am Heba Al-Dahdouh. I currently live in the completely destroyed city of Gaza. Since the war on Gaza began on 7/1/2024, my family- my father Nasif, my mother Asmaa, and my siblings Khaled, Ahmad, Muhammad, and Malak-have been living in constant fear, crying, and suffering due to shrapnel, shells, and bullets.

We have no food, no electricity, no cooking gas, no schools, no homes, no cleaning supplies, and no clothes. Our house was completely destroyed. My school has been bombed, and my brother Khaled's university is now rubble, depriving us all of education. The war has forced us to live in displacement centers, which are just tents unsuitable for living, especially in winter.

Every day we live death, terror, and panic a thousand times because of the ongoing bombardment of my city. The war has killed more than 50 of my relatives and neighbors. At the start of the war, we sought refuge at my aunt's house, but it too became rubble. Imagine: we have survived imminent death more than 20 times and have been displaced among shelters more than 13 times. My siblings and I have suffered from many illnesses due to malnutrition, and we need medication continuously.

If we stay in Gaza, we might lose our lives. Recently, we have been seriously considering leaving Gaza for a safe place. However, travel costs are extremely high. We need over $50,000 to leave Gaza. Due to exorbitant prices, rampant unemployment, lack of security, the ongoing siege, and relentless bombardment, we have lost all our money. How can we live in such insecurity, with constant shelling and shrapnel flying above us? Dear compassionate friends around the world,

With your generous donations, even if small, you can save 7 people from imminent death, allowing us to start a life outside Gaza filled with love, peace, and hope.

With my warmest regards from the city of Gaza,

Heba Al-Dahdouh.
