Help a Disabled Black trans couple in TX get through the holidays
Tumblr media
this is late asf but whatever. new post for December. its winter, we still have no winter clothes, we still need to eat, and we still have a mountain of other expenses. folks can send to my pay apps to help (leave a green emoji in payment note pls); my wife and i also have a shared ko-fi and patreon to cover some of our expenses as well (we currently have a ko-fi goal up to raise money to cover some groceries). thanks so much 4 reading+reblogging, and PLEASE DO NOT TAG THIS POST!!! (more info on why we r ebegging under the cut)
our circumstances have not changed since my last post; we are both still unemployed despite our best efforts, and we both still have debilitating disabilities that are expensive to manage, especially while we don't have access to consistent, affordable medical care. we haven't been able to buy clothes in a year and we have many things that are vital to our quality of life that we Need to replace. additionally, Hannukah and Kwanzaa almost perfectly overlap this year, and itd mean a lot for my wife and i to be able to celebrate after a long, hard year.

Since the holiday toy drive post is circulating again, I figured this would also be helpful! Food insecurity is such a massive problem in America, in general, and if you have the means to help feed others, I think you should take that opportunity. Here are some other tips:
1. If you’re planning on donating items from your own pantry, please check the expiration dates on the packaging. Think of your donations as gifts to bestow, not castoffs to be rid of. It’s awful to think of people feeling like they got scraps someone else just didn’t want. Everyone deserves dignity with their meals.
2. If you’d rather give money to a food bank, that’s also great since they buy food in bulk and know what items are most wanted/needed!
3. Not everyone has access to appliances like stoves or microwaves or hot plates so if you can donate items that don’t need to be heated up, that would also be greatly appreciated!

Are you fed up with us?
Save us from death and hunger🙏🙏😢
I have to tell you that the genocide has been going on for over 400 days, and the situation in southern Gaza has escalated into a severe famine. How can I feed these children, the oldest of whom is only seven years old?
Look at these pictures how their faces have changed. Please don't turn away from us; help me save my children from this nightmare. ,,🍉🍉
Every passing moment brings them closer to danger, and you are their only hope.
Consider donating even five euros, it is enough to make a difference and encourage others to donate too. If you can't donate, share this event widely!🙏💔😭

@lovelyjoyfulpolice and his family are going through a very difficult situation, he is having a lot of difficulty getting food for his family of 11 people, as he depends entirely on donations to buy the necessary things, and the pace of donations is slow. It's also difficult to deal with the extremely cold nights with a tent as fragile as theirs. Just today he told me how bad he is psychologically, he is not getting enough money to take care of his family. Please donate some money to Ahmed, even if it is just a little. Not only so that he can get basic things for his family, but also so that they can leave Gaza and live in a better situation, and so that Ahmed can complete his studies.
Ahmed's fundraiser is vetted by @/gazavetters and his number is #303 on the gaza vetters list
If you are unable to donate, I would appreciate it if you would share this campaign as much as possible!
Here is Ahmed's campaign link:

Hello my friend, I hope you can help me just for the sake of my children.🙏🍉🇵🇸
I am Moamen from Gaza, married and father of three children Ayman, waseem and Elias.
I was living in an apartment in Al-Nasr neighbourhood, but now I'm in a tent on the street because of the war and I lost my house. I have been displaced to Deir al-Balah since the beginning of the war and suffering from its ravages, Extremely heat in the day and very cold at night, drowning when the rain falls, I have no income because I was working as Taxi- and there is no car anymore, my children suffer from skin diseases, malnutrition and lack of hygiene.
Please help me regain my source of income to save my family and so we can leave to safety.
Consider giving even 5 euro, as it is enough to make a difference and encourage others to donate as well. If you cannot donate, share this fundraiser far and wide!🙏💔😭

Hello everyone 🙏‼️💔🥹
“My name is Mahmoud Za’tar, and I’m sharing this campaign on behalf of my injured brother, who can barely move and urgently needs medical treatment. At the same time, my wife and daughter are stuck abroad. My wife gave birth to our daughter while she was outside Gaza, and for over a year and two months, I have been living through war, unable to see, hold, or play with my baby. I can’t even send them money for clothes or anything they need.
I feel completely helpless. My first campaign, which had raised €1,500, was unfortunately shut down. After many attempts, someone else kindly made a new campaign for me, which raised around €670. However, I still urgently need at least €2,000 to get out of this situation.
I need €1,400 just to pay off the debts that have piled up due to the lack of work, the soaring food prices, and the terrible living conditions in Gaza. The rest will help me finally reunite with my family and bring my baby home.
Please, if you can, donate or share this campaign. Every euro brings me one step closer to seeing my daughter and helping my injured brother get the treatment he desperately needs. Thank you for your kindness and support.

My family, my dear friends and everyone who knows me or not ، we are Issam and Sahar , newly married and living in Gaza, I'm 30 years old and Sahar is 26.
Tumblr media
Everyone who knows us knows that we are a reserved, quiet and reclusive person. We have always been an independent person and used to do everything ourselves for our family. So, I hope you understand that today it's difficult for us to talk about our personal issues and finally ask for help. I will tell you my story briefly, after I realized some of my dreams a short time ago by marrying my life partner and moving into my house, which we only stayed in for a few days until we were in the middle of the war, we fled to save ourselves and stay alive, we lost hope in life after all our dreams that we had dreamed of since childhood were shattered.
One of our dreams was to settle in the house we built stone by stone and be happy like other couples, but we couldn't because of the war.
I used to work as a lawyer in several companies, I am unemployed, I lost my job, I have no source of income, and everything I saved I put in the house, the house was destroyed and I have nothing now.
This is a picture of me as a lawyer with the head of the Bar Association
Tumblr media
My wife and I decided to start a fundraising campaign so that we can get some money to evacuate us after we lost everything, to rebuild our house that was destroyed by the occupation, and to get food, water and other necessities of life so that we can live first and then think about our future, which we don't know anything about.
Now, this is our house, which was destroyed by the occupation after my wife and I equipped it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The place where we live now is devoid of all the necessities of life, and we struggle with access to water, food, safety, and all the necessities needed to live.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I realize that we're all going through tough times, so anything that helps, whether it's your love and support, your donation, sharing my story, or sending love and prayers, it's all accepted and greatly appreciated, and I hope that anyone who is able to help me will help me and spread the link, because literally every dollar makes a difference.
Here is the link to the private fundraising campaign
My campaign has been verified by:

Help Ammar's family 🍉
A year has passed since the October 7 war, the Gaza Strip war. In this war, Ammar Hammad was born in harsh conditions. He was 3 months old and could not breastfeed from his mother because she suffers from asthma in the lungs and no milk comes down in her udder. There is a report from Nasser Hospital about this. Ammar needs about 10 packs of milk to help him live in these conditions, in addition to diapers and his special clothes. In addition, Ammar's son suffers from a complete tear in the cruciate ligament and cannot work. Therefore, Ammar needs your help to stay alive.
Your donation is part of saving our lives from death. I hope you donate 20$
