Here is a picture of my friend Fidaa’s baby girl, Sila. Sila and her baby brother Muhammed are currently stuck in a situation so horrible that words struggle to describe it.
Fidaa, (@fidaa-family2) the mother of these beautiful children, is a 29-year-old woman from Gaza who, during the war, was separated from her entire family and is currently being forced to take care of her two children, completely alone.
Her children are both sick from the cold and the encroaching spread of diseases, and they are all in pain. She has been displaced with her children many, many times, each time having to dip into her precious evacuation funds to buy transportation.
Every time she is displaced, she is forced to buy a new tent, which as we know costs $1,500…
This makes her evacuation funds absolutely instrumental for her and her two small children’s survival, two children who I will now remind you are sick, hurting, and starving in a situation that nobody could have ever predicted.
These conditions are absolutely catastrophic. They are apocalyptic. No child, no mother, no person should ever have to go through this.
You can help.
You can help by donating and sharing so that Fidaa is not forced to struggle any longer. All she hopes for is to get enough money to evacuate to Cairo so that she no longer is forced to rely on the black market for things as simple as food.
Please, take time out of your day to donate to Fidaa. Her campaign is going extremely slowly, and needs your help.
Please help Fidaa and her children out of this hell. They, like all human beings, deserve safety, comfort, and warmth, and you now have a way to help provide these things to them.
Fidaa has been verified here and here.

🇵🇸🙏 don't scroll ‼️
Hello dear people
I am Nabila from Gaza,, I am speaking to you with a heavy and painful heart. I am sorry that I had to ask for help from you, but what we are living is what pushed me to do this. I was living a beautiful, quiet life, enjoying the time I spend with my grandchildren and seven daughters.
Imagine waking up to find that your world has changed in a moment, and you have lost your security and peace, and your home has been destroyed, and you have become homeless and living in conditions that no human being can bear. I suffer from chronic diseases, high blood pressure and diabetes. My medication has run out for some time and I am facing difficulty in obtaining it in light of the lack of treatment in hospitals and health centers. Most of the time I cannot feel my limbs, but I am trying to resist. I do not want to die in such circumstances. I still have hope that this war will end and we will rebuild our beautiful and beloved country again and live in safety. I believe in divine power and justice and that all this pain will go away.
I am trying to endure these difficult conditions that I live in inside a small tent and a bathroom a few meters away from my tent and you know the conditions of diabetics in this case but once again there is still hope. I used to live at the expense of my daughters but with all sadness and regret they have all lost their homes and places of work and they have no source of income left and their situation is like that of any Gazan who is still inside Gaza struggling with death, hunger, diseases and extreme heat each one struggling to feed his children I cannot ask them for help so I have resorted to you and I am fully confident in your humanity to help me so that I can provide food and treatment and provide a better tent than the one I live in because it is torn and the place is full of insects. If I can provide treatment, I want to continue my life and see my grandchildren grow up around me. I don’t want to go now. I know that I don’t have as much life left as I have, but I have the right to live and enjoy this. Please don’t hesitate to help your mother who has come to you with a heavy and sad heart. Every dollar will make a difference in my life. Don’t leave me to live this pain. I appreciate what you are doing for every Palestinian inside and outside Gaza. I pray to God that you don’t go through what we are going through, my beloved.
Medical visits and insulin: $5000
Travel and transportation to hospital, coordination with Egypt's border: $5000

I'm the second option. I don't mind sharing details about myself. In fact, I can tell you a few things! I'm 29 years old. My birthday is on January 27th, and I live in Toronto, the unceded territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, and the Wendat peoples. I also like mint chocolate, I'm obsessed with fruits like apples and mangoes, and I like to watch indie films about the human condition
Now you have a general idea about who I am and what I like. Will I tell you more? No, because it is my right to keep information about me private. But this is not the case for the people from Ghazzah. They have to reveal every bit of their life to show foreigners, especially from the West, that they are from Palestine and they are surviving an accelerated genocide. It doesn't matter if they are verified. So you see paragraphs about their experiences, photos, videos, and testimonies from their friends who are supporting them.
But, for some reason, this is not enough.
My good friend, Mohammed Iwais (@mohdiwais) is the perfect example of this. He has shown everyone everything. And I mean everything. Go to his blog. Look at it. There are photos, posts, and videos about his current situation.
One post that gets me the most is about his sister's injury. She has been shot in the thigh by a fucking QUADCOPTER. Mohammed has no choice but to document the whole thing. He has to show X-rays, the bullet, and the blood on the bandages. All so people can empathize with him and lend their support.
Yet, it doesn't seem to get any better for him.
Donations have been awfully slow. He would receive one after many hours, and it would be mere pennies since people don't pay attention to the currency exchange! There are so many 5 and 10 SEK donations if you look into his fundraiser! Mohammed and his 27 family members do not deserve this!
So please donate and share. Mohammed is the sole breadwinner in his family. Many of them are his young nieces and nephews. They are children who are starving and sleeping on the streets!
And don't forget about the currency exchange! It is set in Swedish Krona. $10 USD = 103 SEK. There is also PayPal available, so you can literally give $1!
Shared by Ahmed (@/90-ghost). Donate via PayPal!
Dracula Print Raffle!
Tagging for reach. Please leave a reply if you wish to be removed. Thank you. Free Palestine!

I'm not actually sure if posts / fundraiser pages that contain photos and videos of children tend to raise more money, but god, I almost hope not

Without collaborative effort fundraising is impossible. This does not boil down to one person (or a handful of people) we all must partake

many of us do. it's difficult not to succumb to the feeling of not being able to do something and being completely helpless. and while it's true that individually none of us can change the world, we do have the power together to make an impact, especially on the lives of individual people around us.
instead of succumbing to feelings of doom and despair about the election, the climate, or any other ongoing crises, please consider donating to ibrahim. that is a real way to have a real impact on someone's life.
ibrahim is only 15 and is trying to raise funds to not just help him and his family escape the genocide, but also to survive in the current conditions. he has been displaced and exposed to countless horrors time and time again. the least we can do is attempt to help him.
please, if you can: match my donation of €10. if you can't spare that, spare €5 or even €1. if you really have nothing to give, share this post. don't turn away from suffering. this is your chance to do something.

anyway if you feel bad about the palestinians undergoing a genocide who will inevitably get blamed for being in a situation that "cost kamala the election" as if they’re the ones wielding power over her and not vice versa, consider donating to my gazan friend, who is vetted as #4 here. donations of €10 or more are eligible for a commission, DM me.

if you're feeling powerless right now—and god knows I am—here's a reminder you can donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds, the Trans Law Center, Gaza Soup Kitchen, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, and hundreds of other charities that will work to mitigate the damage that has been and will continue to be inflicted
life continues. we still have the capacity to do good, important work. that matters

i really don't know what to say or do to get people to pay attention anymore. some of my fundraising posts get notes and some of them don't and it's completely random. people are getting more desensitized to palestinian suffering but things are just getting worse.
but i'm making another post because even though people are still reblogging my other post for seraj no one is donating. there have only been FOUR DONATIONS IN THE PAST DAY.
seraj is trying to reach a short term goal of $31k USD by October 31st. It's October 28th now and it will take less than $1000 to reach this goal.
seraj and his family of 9+ use these funds to buy food, water, medication, internet, and other necessities, so there needs to be a consistent flow of donations. can you even imagine depending on the kindness of total strangers on the internet to help your family not STARVE? really, imagine it. seraj has had to take multiple breaks for his own mental health. on top of literally surviving a genocide he has to expend so much time and effort campaigning the survival of his family and it just makes me sick to see donations slowing down. please, please don't let seraj down.
i know that many of you DO still care about gaza. here is one way you can help. give what you can. if not, take 5 seconds to reblog so maybe it reaches someone else who can donate. thank you for reading.
$30,202/$31,000 (short term goal)
DONATE HERE + verification and more details

Give me your attention, please ✋
My campaign has stagnated💔
I am like you, exactly like you.
I was a successful person in my life; I have always been proud of myself, and my family was proud of me too. I had a life, dreams, and ambitions that I was striving for. My life was full of lectures, volunteering, teaching students, and adventures, but for more than 389 days, all of this stopped completely! Can you feel my broken heart? Can you imagine how I feel at this moment? Tell me what I can write for you to feel me and offer help to me and my family by donating and sharing?!
Hello, I'm Ola, a graduate student from the faculty of science - Al-Azhar University in G@za P@lestine. I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my story. As you reading my message, myself and my family, “my mother, father, three sisters, and my little brother,” are trying to survive under all kinds of suffering including but not limited to fear, instability, and starvation, thirst, and poverty in northern G@za.
After the prices went up so crazy, I created this campaign to help my family provide food, drink and essential needs. I know for sure that you can't help all families that want your help but at least you can help those who come across your life.
I sincerely hope you can empathize with our dire situation and consider supporting us.
And yes, even the smallest amount can help because it's all about a collection of these small amounts until we reach our final goal and be able to rebuild our lives.
I am the eldest daughter who has to help herself and her family, but of course I will not be able to do it alone. Will you help me with that?!
Thank you for standing by me. ❤️
Please donate and/or reblog 🥺🙏🇵🇸

Casual reminder that the Palestine Children's Relief Fund has a 97% on Charity Navigator and you should donate to it if u can. Despite the limited external aid that's been allowed into Gaza, they've been able to distribute a lot of aid internally. And they are providing needed aid to Lebanon.

Emergency: Help save my children's lives
Dear humanity,
I am Habib from Gaza. I am married and have four children: Menna, 12 years old, Adam, 10 years old (suffering from quadriplegia), Maria, 6 years old, and Ezz, one year old. Although they are young, they have survived previous wars, but this current war is the most difficult of all. This is a war of genocide, and the difficulty of the war lies in the inability to meet the needs of my son Adam, who needs special care.
Over the past ten months, we have been caught in the crossfire of the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Our once peaceful home in Khan Yunis has been reduced to rubble, and now we find ourselves displaced in Deir al-Balah, living in squalid conditions in a makeshift tent on the streets. The devastation not only deprived us of our physical shelter, but also destroyed my livelihood - the once thriving business that supported our family's well-being, is now in ruins. The daily struggle for survival is exacerbated by the scarcity of basic necessities such as clean water, adequate sanitation and basic medical supplies
Our home was the place where we found hope and safety, and where we made precious memories. Losing him was like losing years of our lives.
Not only that, they destroyed my source of livelihood, burned it, and demolished it with bulldozers, and today I am without a home and without a job. I was working in a store I owned that met the needs and expenses of my family
Living in tents is miserable. There is a lack of drinking water, hot sun rays, and strange insects that have terrified my children. What hurts me most is my young son Ezz, who I see growing up in an unclean environment and with no healthy food for him. I believe he has not received his right to life.
At this stage, my husband and I decided to go to you and create an account on the Go Fund Me website and ask you to help us in these difficult times until we get out of Gaza, from the land of war to the land of peace. All we need from you is to support us and help us to get out of the war, even if you cannot help. You should spread the word. This campaign is everywhere and among your friends. We thank you for your stance and support for us. Thank you, my friends
The amount that will be collected from this campaign :
We will spend it by paying the amount to coordinate entry through the Rafah land crossing, which connects Gaza to the State of Egypt, since, as I mentioned, they charge an adult $5,000, but depending on the pressures, crises, and waiting, the amount may reach $7,000 per person, and children $2,500 to $4,000.
We will also use it for the rest of the travel and safe transportation expenses to provide for all family members.
A picture of my children's life before the war
A video of my children's lives living the war
May God reward you with all the best and may God bless you
Best wishes with sincere gratitude,
Habib's family
