Hi 👋, My name is Mohammad, and I’m reaching out in a moment of desperate need. I’m a father of three young children living in Gaza, and we are caught in the midst of a catastrophic war. Our home is no longer a safe haven, and the future here seems increasingly uncertain. 💔

I’ve launched a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $40,000 to relocate my family to a safer place where my children can grow up in peace and have a chance at a brighter future.

Unfortunately, my previous fundraising efforts were abruptly halted when my account was terminated without explanation. However, I remain determined to keep fighting for my family’s safety and well-being. 🫶

If you could take a moment to read our story, consider donating, or simply share our campaign with others, it would make an incredible difference. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to safety and a new beginning. 🙏

Thank you for your time, compassion, and support. ❤️‍🩹

I can’t tell you how many mornings this song woke me up for school. (My parent’s alarm clock was set to lite fm.)

And this absolutely appeared in a commercial for Time Life’s Ultimate Love Song Collection. You can find it at 1:30 😂💀💀💀💀

For those of you wrapping your minds around 1999 historical dolls, some fun facts:

My grandma was a depression child like our girl Kit.

Grandma was a military steno pool secretary during Molly and Nenea’s storylines. (Infamously when she got the initial messaging that the war was over she called all her girlfriends and told them to go buy pantyhose.)

My mom is a boomer like our girl Maryellen and spent some of her youth as a self proclaimed Navy brat in Pensacola Florida.

I was born during Julie’s storyline.

I was about the same age as Courtney but did not get a Molly because PC was not on our radar. I still had and played with Barbies.

I was in graduate school during Nicki and Isabel’s storyline.

My kids, including my son, have read all the historical AG books and even now in their advancing middle school years will ask, “so was that like Felicity time or Caroline time”.

Eras.
