Help Hazem and his Family!

Hazem (@hazem1999 @hazempalestine ) keeps getting shadowbanned and his account @hazem1999sblog has been deleted. This is disgusting behaviour from Tumblr but it's also really concerning as his online presence is vital for his family's survival.

Hazem is fundraising for his family to be able to safely evacuate from the genocide, he has been separated from them for several years. Hazem's parents and four siblings are living in the Jabalia Refugee Camp and desperately need to evacuate.

Hazem's campaign has only raised €1,075/50,000 goal. Raising this money is so important for his family to be able to afford the costs of basic necessities with living through this genocide and also with the evacuation costs.

Hazem's campaign technically hasn't been vetted yet, his accounts being banned doesn't help and means his campaign isn't as visible to the hard-working vetters out there and people in a position to donate. He has been personally vouched for by @bilal-salah0 who has been vetted.

Every donation matters, no matter how small! Hazem is stressed about his studies and his family's survival and wellbeing. He shouldn't be worried about all of this and also about his accounts getting banned and needing to make new ones. Nobody deserves this, Hazem's family deserve more, please help however you can whether it's by donating or sharing and please follow his account and campaign!

why is the extreme reactionary opposite opinion the one yall seem to be taking? i dont think anyone has EVER said that ALL of the fundraisers are fake, but do you legitimately believe that every single one is real? is that not an equally silly stance on the scam website?

Can you shut the fuck up im actually so sick of you people who lack reading comprehension

Hello,

How do you do ? I hope to be in a good condition.

This is my special campaign

We hope to help us by donating or sharing to others.

Every donation makes a different even if it a small.

As you know, the war began on October 7 and lasted ten months. During this period, we were unable to obtain food, drink, or treatment because we did not have money.

There is no source of income for the family at the present time, so we are unable to buy food, clean water, and medicine, especially after we are afflicted with the ongoing infectious diseases spread in the north like Hepatitis C disease.

Our house has been damaged a lot since the beginning of the war. We are from the north of Gaza and we are still in the north and have not displaced to the south. We displaced 10 times from place to another seeking to safety .

We hope for your help and support, even if only a little.

This is the link if you would to read our story well 👇👇

they have only raised €890 so far.

jesus these accusations and bitter posts Mocking the way people are asking for help are evil. "um, suspicious much how every ask sounds like it's copy pasted and is worded desperately, like a scammer would do" are you expecting what, level-headed bespoke messages from people trying to survive genocide, use your goddamn common sense.

Thank you for your continuous support for the Palestinian cause until freedom is achieved🇵🇸 🕊♥️. I hope you can help me spread my message to the whole world by reblogging my story🥹🙏🏻♥️. 

Best regards and love, 

Dr. Mohammed Al-Deeb from Gaza.

as far as i can tell, this is a legitimate fundraiser. the gfm is here:

Those people who talked about the scams went way too far for no reason & doubled down on 'everyone here is scamming you' refusing to hear anything else from people who actually did try to make sure they were promoting fundraisers of real people & accusing those users completely unreasonably and disgustingly. This also sucks because there very obviously IS a charity scam bot network on here (which has nothing to do with the users they accused) trying to steal funds that should go to people who need it and now those users who pointed it out discredited their whole point with their behavior otherwise. Still it is clearly there & being careful about who you promote and donate to is in the interest of everyone especially the people that the money is supposed go to

Hello,

I hope you are well. I am reaching out to ask for your help in sharing and reblogging my story and struggles. I have faced many hardships and need your generous support. By sharing my story, you can significantly impact my life and help me through these difficult times.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your understanding and generosity.♥️🙏

Hello Abdalhadi, I've reblogged your post and well as qued it to be seen again tomorrow since it's a bit late in my time. I'll also be posting your fundraiser here for more traction:

I do commissions for any all donations to Gazan families in need like Abdalhadi's here. If this motivates you to donate to his family please check my pinned. This fundraiser is very low on funds, currently it's at 160 Canadian dollars out of a 60k goal.

The real pain of Getting Into Fountain Pens is the fact that this is an item that is a Luxury Purchase in the higher-end forms, where the quality legitimately massively improves by putting more money into it, and we have personally experienced how much better a spendier fountain pen is compared to a cheaper one, but we are also the kind of person where everything over $10 gets sorted into the category of "major purchase" and the fact that there are people in the hobby who say that, like, three hundred dollar pens are must-haves is doing a process to our brain, and it is not a good one.

It is remarkably hard to comprehend that there are people who can just spend three hundred dollars on something. It is also remarkably hard to comprehend that we could spend three hundred dollars on something and it would not take out our entire food budget for all of that month. The government should give us money more often

Ok look I said I'd never do it but I am going to close my ask box for a day or 2

Sideblogs will stay open but please don't put asks that are related to my main on there please

[vermin-fangs]

Being condescending to poor & disabled people who have less than you is definitely a good way to get donations, I'm sure that's really working out for the people you are trying to help. What's the exchange rate exactly for superiority points

[babsaros]

hey, regular reminder that if you get someone in your inbox (that you have never interacted with before/has never been following you) asking you to reblog a post on their blog (sob story asking for donations, usually about a pet to make it extra guilt-trippy) and they specifically ask you to answer this ask privately (for a vague and weak reason, why wouldn't they want more eyes on this post?) and then you go to their blog and their account is days old at most (and they're even claiming they have an old account that got shadowbanned ((?? being "shadowbanned" on tumblr does not mean you can't still post from that account?)) but never mention the url of that old blog) and all their reblogs are straight from the op and not from anyone they might be following who reblogged the post first (indicating they just quickly searched a semi-popular fandom tag to reblog some innocuous fanart to make the blog seem lived in)-

this is probably a scam :/ keep your eye out for odd details, inconsistency, and a glaring lack of credibility. stay safe out there everypony.

[an-android-in-a-tutu]

the thing is that I am cognizant about scammers and bad actors and I do worry quite a lot that I might spread faulty information by being hasty but sorry when your psa post about how you have to be careful because your donation to the wrong gofundme could be funding human trafficking (and calling anyone who donates to someone directly in need instead of giving to charity selfish) features prominently in the notes someone yes anding you and saying all those donations are probably being funneled to hamas anyway with no one challenging them.... I don't know I become a little skeptical of your intentions.

Hello 👋, I hope you're doing well..

My name is Mahmoud, and I'm a 17-year-old from Gaza. The ongoing war has devastated my city, destroyed my school, and made daily life incredibly challenging.

Despite these hardships, I'm determined to continue my education and build a better future. I've been given a chance to study abroad, but I need help to cover the costs of leaving Gaza, as well as living expenses and other essentials abroad once the crossing opens.. 🙏

If you can, please consider donating or sharing, your kindness can truly make a difference, and thanks for your time. ❤🍉

I am Laila Shaqura, a displaced person from northern Gaza to southern Gaza, specifically the city of Rafah.

In light of this ongoing aggression, there is no glimmer of hope except for you and your standing with us. I tell you the story of my mother and her fetus in this war.

In the midst of this devastation, the expectant mother faces countless challenges. She suffers from malnutrition due to a lack of healthy food, which exposes her and her fetus to multiple health risks. Due to the lack of adequate health care and weak immunity, this led to her contracting hepatitis, anemia, intestinal diseases, and preeclampsia.

In addition, the psychological pressure resulting from war and displacement increases her suffering. The constant concern for the safety of the family and the fear of the sound of the continuing violent bombing tonight led to high blood pressure, imbalance in movement, and fainting this morning. It was a very bad morning.

Despite the sound of cannons, the sound of bullets, the bombing, the fear and anxiety, a new life continues to form inside the mother’s womb. My mother held me with hope for the future, but the war stole from her the ability to dream.

Not only did she carry a fetus, but she also carried the burdens and pain of war.

The pain of her pregnancy increases with the weight of the war and its sorrows. She carried life in her belly and the war destroys life around her. We sometimes wonder,

Will this expected child live in such a broken world?

At this moment, I wonder if the war will take this awaited child from us before he sees the light??!

Rafah is no longer safe, and the sounds of bombing intensify every night.

There is no time to escape death. My mother's health condition is deteriorating. There is no health care. We want her to stay alive.

This is about the lives of two people (a mother and her child).

Let us extend a helping hand to those who have lost everything.Your donation can give new lives and hope for the future.

Please help us by sharing the post on your page so that we can collect donations and get out of the war. You are our hope. I will be very grateful to you . ❤️🙏🏼
