#gaza survival

[littlegermanboy]

i'm going to keep this short so hopefully people are more likely to read and interact/donate. i wish i could tell you all about how much this family means to me, but people have been turning a blind eye to families in gaza now more than ever, so i'm trying something different in the hopes that it will help my dear friends. i'll keep trying again if this doesn't work. i'm desperate for them.

the shehab family needs to raise €85k to evacuate reem, fahed, their children, and fahed's sister's family. they had to raise their goal from their initial €50k goal, which they still have not met. €47,793 / €85,000 has been raised as of sept. 4th. the fundraiser is verified here. reblog. donate. thank you.

tagging for reach under the cut. dm me if you'd like to be removed.

I’m Nasreen, a 37-year-old mother from Gaza. After losing my husband and home to the war, I’m the sole provider for my four children. We struggle with hunger, cold, and lack of basics like milk, diapers, and medicine. 🇵🇸🍉

Our goal ➡️ to reach $2000 after already collecting $960. 🕐⏳

If you had the ability to save an entire family from hunger and suffering, would you hesitate? Every share or donation of $10 could be the first step in changing the lives of my children. Could you be the reason for this change? 🙏💔

Balsam Ibrahim (@balsamibrahim), whose vetted campaign I've been reblogging for several days, has asked me to also share this campaign that is raising money to provide water for the people in the displacement camp in Az-Zawaida. Here is a photo she took of people waiting for water:

Balsam says:

This campaign is more important than my personal one because it helps more than 60 families. Imagine, €100 or €50 can help more than 60 families.

Right now, as of 12:26 GMT on 18 October 2024, this campaign is at $2,955 of its $7,500 goal.

We Have A Duty To Protect Children

Never in my life will I understand how one can be silent in the midst of the utmost horror against children: Silent or even justifying this.

We have a duty to protect children – all children, everywhere, every one of us.

This is the base of life, isn’t it? What have we become?

🚨I am in urgent need of your help during these difficult times❤️🇵🇸🚨

Omar Mohamed Jundia, a 27-year-old young man, had been living a peaceful and stable life with his family of four. He worked at a company that sold sanitary products and supported his small family, ensuring a decent life for his children, as well as his mother and father. His days passed peacefully in his beautiful city, with everything in his life going smoothly—from work to family, to dreams of a future that seemed within reach.

🚨🔗Please support the GoFundMe link🚨🔗

[https://gofund.me/baed11c6]

But suddenly, the unexpected happened. War swept through his city, destroying everything: homes, dreams, and hope. His life turned from calm to chaos, and he lost everything he had once dreamed of. His family was scattered, and they found themselves living in tents on the side of the roads, without a permanent home, electricity, water, food, or hope

The days were difficult, and each passing day felt like agony. There was no source of income to support his family, and finding work had become impossible amid the harsh conditions. He felt weak, but his determination was stronger than the pain. His only dream now was to rebuild his life and his family’s life, and to provide his children with safety and a decent living

Omar is asking for help so that he can rebuild his life and the life of his family. He wants to find a safe place to live, away from the horrors of war, where he can work and live with dignity, to achieve what he had failed to attain due to the circumstances.

I've seen so much back and forth about Gazan GoFundMe campaigns.

"You should donate a little to each one/share each one, just in case!"

"They're all scams! Your money won't even go to Gazans!"

So I wrote a whole article about how to vet GoFundMe campaigns for yourself:

[revoltingcocks]

many people have reached out to me and i thought making a post like this might help since it's hard to get traction on my posts for individual fundraisers.

Please if you are able, consider what you're doing by giving $5, $10, $15, $20 to one or several of these families. Most of these people have lost their homes, their jobs and/or workplaces and have no source of income. Prices for basic things such as clean water, food, shelter, winter clothes/blankets, medication, diapers, internet, etc. are EXTREMELY HIGH because of the deliberate blocking of aid. You will be helping these people survive, literally.

Hello dears! I am Ali and thank you for looking at us with compassion and I ask you to support my campaign to help me achieve my goal. I am in dire need of your support now to help my family survive and be safe. Gaza is a very dangerous place both in terms of living and life. I need your financial support to enable me to get the basic needs for my family until the Rafah crossing is reopened to transport my family to safety and peace. Please help a family survive through your small donations or through your contributions to others. Thank you so much for standing by those who are there 😭🇵🇸 Need.https://gofund.me/36240bc1

hi everyone. i'm writing to you today with desperate urgency. as you all know, i've been advocating for my friend amal (@amalashuor) for around 2 months now. a few weeks ago, she was thankfully able to reach her first goal of raising €30k. however, due to the incredibly high cost of living as amal details in the screenshot below, she unfortunately had to increase her fundraising goal to €50k.

[Image ID: Seven Tumblr messages from Amal. Together, they read: "Here I am in war mode, renting the house where my family lives for $2,500. I created a fundraiser to escape from Gaza to a safe country. But I found myself spending the money people donated to me on rent, food, and my daughter 😕😕 House rent is $2,000. Food and beverages are $2,000. My daughter's good, such as milk, Cerelac, and Pampers, costs $500. This means I need $5,000 a month to meet basic life needs 😭 I don't work now. How can I provide this amount for my family? 💔 I'm so sick and tired 💔💔💔 I hope this war ends 🙏" End ID.]

in the almost two weeks since amal met her first goal, only THREE THOUSAND EUROS HAS BEEN RAISED. i don't know what to do. donations have been decreasing across the board for survival and evacuation funds since the increase in accusations of gazans trying to survive being scammers. amal is so close to my heart, i want to be able to give her all the money she needs to escape gaza and provide for her beautiful family. i just want other people to want the same for her.

as of today, september 3rd, €33,087 / €50,000 has been raised. please god i'm literally begging you to at least reblog this post or share amal's gofundme wherever you can. most of all, i'm begging you to please donate whatever you can to amal so she can not only survive in gaza but so she can escape to safety with her family. care for the ashour family like they were your family. put yourself in their shoes.

The previous campaign of Lama and Mohammed (who is the brother of @ayoosh-gaza01 and is vetted by association) was deleted by GoFundMe after raising more than $27,000.

As of 03:32 GMT on 21 December 2024, their NEW campaign is at $10,055 / $50,000.

Please share their new campaign, especially if you shared the old one!

Our dreams have been destroyed, and we have nothing left...😞

🫂You're our last hope in this life🫂

I'm Lama from Gaza, I'm 24 years old, and my husband is Mohammad... We got married in 2022 in a house full of love and happiness. Our house was beautiful, we chose everything in it carefully... We were waiting for the end of the day to go there after a tiring day of work, but the occupation did not leave us. 😔😭💔

This house was bombed with all hatred. Here we are after the genocide. We have nothing... We lost our house, our work, and our car.😭😞

We were displaced to Rafah in a tent that could not accommodate 5 people, and after the displacement from Rafah, we were displaced to Mawasi Khan Yunis again. It was a very difficult period... but now we are in Mawasi Khan Yunis in a tent that does not protect us from the cold of winter or the heat of summer.😞😭

This is our tent, its floor is made of cardboard, as you can see, and I suffer from severe eczema due to the pollution of the air and the materials used, and the medicine is very expensive.😭💔

Urgent: My husband needs a very necessary operation and medication. Please help my husband in order for his health to improve. He is in pain.😞😭🫂🙏🙏

Help us and donate to us. You are our last hope and the lifeline of this life. 🫂🙏

We need you...Donate to us and save what is left of us.😞🙏🙏

Ahmed (@ahmadashi1) has asked me to help him promote his campaign. He's 25, and lived with his elderly parents in Gaza City before an Israeli airstrike destroyed their home and martyred his father.

Now, Ahmed is trying to survive and support his elderly mother, who is very sick and has limited mobility. Like many Gazans, Ahmed has also gotten sick from bad food and contaminated water, and even bad food is horrifyingly expensive.

Right now (00:15 GMT on 21 November 2024, about 2:15 a.m. in Gaza), Ahmed's vetted campaign (The ButterflyEffect Project, line 152) is only up to kr19,677 (SEK) / kr100,000.

That sounds like a big number, but one Swedish kroner (SEK) is worth less than one U.S. dime, so he's received less than $2,000 USD to date, which does not go far in Gaza now!

Ahmed also has a Chuffed campaign, which is only at $788 / $10,000.

Please donate if you can, and share and reblog!

Soul Of My Soul

Today a righteous man was killed by the most wicked army on earth. Khaled Nabhan who we watched bid farewell to his beloved Reem, the soul of our soul, has joined her in the realm of souls where the wickedness of this so called humanity will no longer reach them. The man had an angelic presence to say the least. He smiled in the face of a genocide, and went around hospitals and camps comforting people despite his own pain. A man who seemed too good to be here. I longed for the day to meet him in person. I imagined the day the genocide would be over and he would be celebrated with awards around the world on the biggest stages. The demonized turbaned Muslim man who was everything they said he couldn’t be. Kind. Loving. Righteous. Resilient. Too good for this world. Our hearts are broken. I won’t post the picture of his bloodied face, just the smile they tried to make the world unsee. May Allah have mercy on you our brother and join you with your beloved Reem and Rasul ﷺ,

Dr. Omar Suleiman

I want to make a new post to help support Hanan. Hanan and her family have been repeatedly displaced, several family members have been martyred in just a few days, and they are now trying to live in a miserable tent, sleeping on the cold ground, with little food to eat.

Hanan's daughters are sick and hurt as well as hungry — her daughter Mira has a broken hand and a respiratory infection — and Hanan is about to give birth to another child any day now. And this morning, just two hours ago, their tent was damaged by another bombing.

Her situation is unimaginably miserable: To give birth in a safe hospital bed is hard enough, but to have a child in such terrible conditions is truly hell.

Hanan's campaign is vetted (GazaVetters, line 259), but right now (about 05:15 GMT on Monday, 18 November 2024, about 7:15 a.m. in Gaza), she's only up to $2,850 / $55,000.

She has received $110 in new donations in the past 24 hours, but in Gaza, even a single package of Pampers diapers can cost $100, and food, water, clothing, and blankets are terribly expensive.

Please help Hanan and her daughters to survive this ordeal!

Soul Of My Soul Derails Israel's Propaganda

"Khaled alone was stronger than the propaganda machine of israel!"

[cantsayidont]

Amal asked me to make a new post to help to highlight her campaign (which is vetted: line 175).

Amal was a graduate student when the current genocide began in 2023. Like so many Gazans, she and her husband and little daughter Maryam have been displaced repeatedly and are often in terrible danger.

Right now (22:00 GMT on Saturday, 16 November 2024), Amal's campaign is up to €55,535 / €75,000. This might sound like a lot of money, but Amal's campaign is supporting more than 20 people, including nine children and three elderly people with serious health conditions.

Food, diapers and milk for the babies, and medicine are EXTREMELY expensive in Gaza. Most of us have seen the infographic from Al Jazeera showing how costly grocery items like flour and eggs have become. Amal's campaign has received €125 in donations today and €50 yesterday, but divide that by 20 people and you have a whole family trying to survive on less than $10 USD a day, in a war zone where a single package of Pampers diapers can cost $100 and a bottle of milk for a baby can cost $25. A kilo (2.2 lb) of tomatoes or potatoes may cost $30 or more — if they're available at all. Amal says a single grocery run for the family can cost more than $1,000.

It is an impossible situation, and with the Israelis blocking humanitarian aid shipments (or using aid trucks to set murderous traps), your donations are the only thing enabling Amal and her family to survive at all. Please keep donating and sharing her campaign!
