My friend Suad is despondent. She and her family have been displaced since the IOF bombed their home in Gaza City nearly a year ago. They have eked out an existence in shelter centers, friends’ and strangers’ homes, tents, and even open streets. Her firstborn Khaled was born under IOF bombing, and has struggled with malnutrition for his entire life up to this point. They have been displaced over a dozen times, often barely escaping before their prior location was bombed. You can read more about this situation in our “#Suad Ahmad” tag, as Tumblr has inexplicably deleted Suad’s blog for the 4th time.
The bombing is almost constant, and the debris dust from the bombs is so omnipresent that little Khaled struggles to breathe. Contaminants in the air, water, and scarce supply of food cause him to break out in frequent rashes, which occasionally ally afflict Suad as well. Khaled also has a frequent fever caused by a chest infection for which there are little or no available antibiotics.
Khaled requires medications, doctor visits, and the use of specialized breathing equipment for medical treatment which can only be used when a kind stranger allows the family to power the machine with their solar panels. As an infant, he also requires diapers. Astonishingly, the price of diapers in Gaza has risen to over $50 USD for a small pack. Anyone who has ever spent time with a baby knows that babies require mountains of diapers. $50 barely buys a day’s worth in Gaza.
Additionally, this is going to be Khaled’s first winter, which means he has no winter clothes of any kind. There are some winter clothes for infants for sale in Gaza, but they are extremely expensive. Khaled is sick and also suffers from malnutrition, making him more vulnerable to the elements. Winters in Gaza are wet, windy, and cold, and this past winter saw the deaths of many infants and young children due to hypothermia.
Suad has been running a campaign to support her family’s evacuation for several months, but progress has been sporadic. The evacuation costs are exorbitantly high, and the cost of hopefully beginning their lives anew in Egypt will be extremely high also. In the mean time, Suad requires mutual aid for food, water, medications, winter clothes, doctor visits, diapers, and transportation.
This little boy deserves everything. He deserves to only know joy, to learn and grow in safety and health. He was born into a world which is largely neglectful of his suffering. Please be the exception. Please help this little boy and his family survive in a world that has turned its back on them.
Hello everyone, an update on my life. It has been almost a year since the bloody war on Gaza. We lost everything that indicates life. We lost our places of comfort, our homes, and people dear to our hearts. We were displaced from one place to another, fleeing death and bombing, and every time we miraculously survived. I have two children. My daughter will be a year older than her age, but she has lived through wars and a newborn baby. I cannot describe what we have lived through, as for my children, and how much they have lived through deprivation from food and water. Sometimes I do not find milk or pacifiers. We have spent days, even months, in loss and not having money to spare due to the lack of a normal life, work, and a source of income. Now, there are many. Diseases and the spread of insects. Polio has spread and I am very afraid of this thing. Everything needs money and at exorbitant prices that I cannot afford. My children need vaccination as soon as possible and this costs me money so that they can take it. If I ask you to help me as soon as possible, your donation will save them and they must take the vaccine. Please and I ask you to help me with your donation 🥺🙏😓 Your donation is a new life for them for the sake of your humanity 🕊️🤍
URGENT: Adoption Request: Tawfik has 280 hours to pay his tuition.
If he doesn't, he will have wasted USD $2,500 on registration fees he won't be refunded for.
I don't have the time right now to focus on fundraising like I did in the recent past. Tawfik and I need YOUR support to make this happen. Even if you can't donate, I highly encourage you to adopt this campaign, promote it, keep track of updates, and/or share with others. You can write your own post or spread this one. If you adopt this campaign, I'd appreciate if you left a reply for our peace of mind.

Payment methods: PayPal, Venmo, Google Pay, credit/debit. Here is his Paypal campaign where you can donate as little as $1.
Summary: Tawfik's campaign needs to reach $5,000 USD so he can enroll in online university classes for the semester.
Current progress:
USD $ 1,087 1,497 / 5,000
(short term / 18,860)
Campaign details:
Tawfik is a software engineering student in Palestine trying to continue his education by enrolling in online classes at an Egyptian university.
He already raised roughly USD $2,500 in late July through a now closed Paypal campaign and paid the school as an application and reservation fee. This is nonrefundable.
Now he needs to pay $3,000 for tuition by Sep 30 in Egypt, set at 12am.
Accounting for additional costs, his campaign would need to reach $5,000 (see math section below)
He needs to make ~$350 every day to reach this goal in time.
Math:
Please let me know if I screwed up the calculation somewhere.
He needs to make ~$350 every day to reach this goal in time.
Tawfik has already spent the $1,052 already earned to care for his family, so it is excluded from my calculation for now.
Assuming 300 donations needed to get an additional $3k, Gofundme will take 2.9% ($87) and $0.30 per donation ($90). After that, his bank takes 12% ($339), and he ends up with $2,484.
So to cover additional fees, he'll need around an extra ~$700 (which is subjected to fees as well.
Yara and her family have been displaced after their home was destroyed. They now suffer in Mawasi, Khan Younis without any of the basic necessities for life. Yara herself is also unable to complete her physical therapy studies since Islamic University, the place she studied, was destroyed by the occupation.
In order to help her family of 9 survive this genocide, Yara is trying to raise €20,000. Since my last post on this campaign, she's raised only €988; this puts her at only €1,385/€20,000.
Please do whatever you can to help Yara and her family. Donate to her if you can and share her campaign. Help them survive.
Nedaa @nedaapalestine only needs £181 to reach £9,000. This is not something that will just happen magically, she needs donations. Her already stagnating campaign gained less this week than last week. There have been no donations in 12 hours.

Only 800 euros remain to reach the target in my campaign‼️🚨
, which I launched to raise the necessary amount to buy a new phone. This phone is not just a communication tool for me, but a vital means to capture and document the ongoing events in Gaza and convey the reality to the world. The situation here is extremely difficult, especially with the media blockade and the challenges we face in reporting what is happening on the ground.
Every contribution, no matter how small, significantly brings me closer to this goal. Your support is not just personal assistance but a contribution to a just humanitarian cause, as it helps me provide a clearer picture of the situation in Gaza. I urgently need your help so that you can assist me in conveying the truth and, ultimately, help my family and everyone suffering here.
I has so far raised €1,235 out of a €2,000 short term goal.

Donate whatever you can; every euro brings us closer to this goal.
I am Huda from Gaza. On October 14, 2023, our home was bombed, killing my 17-year-old sister, 8-year-old nephew, and 19-year-old cousin. My father was seriously injured and needs surgery, while my mother, siblings, and I were also wounded.
Our four-story home, which included two apartments and a supermarket—our only source of income—was completely destroyed. We've since been displaced, constantly at risk from bombings and shelling. My sister's chronic illness has worsened due to her child's death and a lack of medication.
Now surrounded by Israeli tanks, we face extreme shortages of food, water, and electricity. Contaminated conditions have left me with hepatitis, and we’re struggling with illness and malnutrition. The situation is unbearable, and I’ve lost hope.
We desperately seek your help and donations to survive and to find a way out of Gaza to safety. Your support can make a difference in our lives during this crisis.
absolutely diabolical how @ahmed8311 has been fundraising since APRIL and still hasn't reached 13% of his goal. he has eight family members in gaza and has to evacuate them. if you're reading this, please donate to his fundraiser if you have the means to.
Fahed ( @fahedshehab-new ), Sahar’s father, reached out to me this morning asking for help in spreading their story. Their campaign is vetted by el-shab-hussein.
I’m happy to report that they’re over halfway to their goal at almost €29k of €50k reached! But they still need our help. I donated €15; I urge everyone to match my donation. If 1.4k people donate €15, the Shehab family will be able to evacuate Gaza. Please donate what you can.

Nour, the little girl whose dreams did not go beyond the limits of innocence, lost everything beautiful in life.
She lost her room, which was filled with toys and laughter.
Instead of playing, studying, and living her childhood like other children, she was contributing to facing the hardships of life.
Before, Nour dreamed of a beautiful home and toys filling her room, but today, her life revolves around helping with the arduous daily chores that are beyond her ability as a child.
Instead of playing and having fun, she finds herself contributing to carrying the burdens alongside her father, in a tent that does not provide the slightest elements of comfort and safety.
