If you want your donations to go the farthest, I recommend donating directly to people in need and local nonprofits. For the humanitarian crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo, I suggest Goma Actif

Goma Actif is a Congolese nonprofit that has boots on the ground in Goma, DRC, at the Kanyaruchinya displacement camp, providing food to people who have fled the latest offensive by the M23 rebel group.

The Congolese people have expressed frustration that international organizations are slow and fickle when it comes to distributing aid. Goma Actif functions entirely within DRCongo and therefore bypasses international red tape to deliver aid more reliably than external sources.

Please take the time to read and share this🙏

Together we will make a difference

For every ‘Free Congo’ item purchased, we donate directly to a globalgiving.org project dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating these children, offering them a path towards a brighter, hope-filled future.

They are almost at 50% of their goal of $2000!! Please share widely and donate what you can!

Time for a reminder: We are a (CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC) NOT A DEMOCRACY LET IT SINK IN !!!!!!

January 28, 2025 - Protesters in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, set fires at the embassies of France, Belgium, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya and the United States, chanting slogans like "Thieves, get out!". The protesters targeted the embassies of countries they accuse of complicity with Rwanda and the M23 militia.

Rwanda supports the M23 militia that is currently taking over the resource-rich eastern part of the country. And of course Belgium and the USA have been involved in destabilizing DR Congo since its' independence in 1960, to plunder the country's vast mineral resources. [video]/[video]/[article]

note: it is not guaranteed that donations will get to palestinians due to the blockade. it is still noble to donate, but keep that in mind.

*another note: it is important to focus on the companies that the bds movement has listed. although important to know about, having a more targeted approach will have better results.

Just a genuine reminder, simply liking and reblogging posts or just paying attention to what's happening in places like Palestine, The Congo, Sudan, Yemen, Syria, etc. Does help!

If you can't donate or boycott because you're a minor or in a situation where you can't afford to try signing petitions and spreading awareness so others who can afford to can have information

Edit: there are a lot of good suggestions for what to do in the reblogs that I forgot to mention
