had this sitting in my head for a few days

verified by 90-ghost follow asmaa @asmaayyad & on instagram (asmaa_ayyad98)

moots/lovely lurkers- lend me your ears (or eyes- y'all get it) and allow asmaa to introduce herself in her own words:

"hello I hope my message reaches you well i am asmaa ayyad from gaza, specifically khan yunis, i am 25 years old, i am trying to save me and my family from the war of extermination that is happening now (a/n: asmaa graduated from the university of palestine in 2021 and went on to study/train to become a practicing lawyer) we lost our home, our friends and some of our relatives, I have also been living far away from my fiancé for two years, I cannot reach him because of the increase in the coordination price and the closure of the crossings and borders (a/n: asmaa lists feras_lbrahim in her insta bio as her fiancé) please i want you to help me by publishing for me and standing by my side, as i am now struggling alone to save an entire family i wanted to contact @/90-ghost but he does not respond to me (a/n: since asmaa sent me this message, 90-ghost has been able to get in touch/share her posts) i would be very grateful to you if you helped me"

asmaa's family consists of 8 members- all of whom led beautiful lives prior to the war. asmaa's older brother, dia, was looking forward to his own wedding. instead of experiencing such a joyous day, his life was shattered after his home was destroyed by the israeli army.

to lose a home- all your valuable possessions- your memories- in an instant is something that cannot be fully understood unless you've gone through it yourself. in asmaa's own words (read & share full post here):

"in addition to the pain, oppression and suffering that displacement causes us, there is a material aspect that no one talks about or mentions or mentions in the media. every place we move from to a new place requires transportation from 1,500 to 2,000 shekels... and despite this amount, you cannot transport all your belongings. this is in addition to the costs of setting up the tent again and trying to return what you lost of your things and belongings. displacement kills us more than death, it drains our health, our money and everything we own... displacement is another war that is harsher than this war of starvation and extermination... displacement is a hidden killer. how many people have been martyred because they do not have the price of displacement? the price that saves them from death! how many people have lost their dignity because of it?! oh god, have mercy on us and our situation 🙏💔"

asmaa's family has already lost so much- friends, loved ones, their cat, timur. they are living in a nightmare they cannot wake up from. the decision to evacuate is not an easy one to make nor is it one for the rest of us to scrutinize. it's what asmaa + her family have decided is the best path forward

please support my friend however you can-- the smallest actions can make the biggest impact

if all you can do is share- then share. follow asmaa to get the most up to date news regarding her family. tell someone you know about asmaa's story. allow others who may be able to contribute more find asmaa so her family may get to safety

and if you can give little more, please visit the link below 🖤

Hello! Of course, I'm so sorry for everything that is happening. I'll do everything I can to help.

Please do donate to and share their gofundme! They are low on funds with £3,350/£30,000. They have been vetted by nabulsi

here is the link again in case you are not able to open it.

Here is their story (from gofundme) if you have not seen it:

"The Munna Tashmali family has faced unimaginable hardship and loss. Their home in Gaza has been destroyed three times by the wars on Gaza in 2014, 2021, and now again in 2024. Each time they have painstakingly rebuilt their lives and their home, but this time, they have lost not only their home but also any source of income. The compensation for their 2021 home destruction is still pending, and now they face the devastating reality of losing their home once more."

This family consists of five children, each with their own dreams and hopes:

- Rima, the eldest, is a teenager who dreamed of decorating her room with the best furniture and devices, to build a future alongside her four younger siblings.

- Salah, 11 years old, has a deep love for football and admires stars like Messi, Ronaldo, and Mohamed Salah. He hasn't watched a match in nine months and missed an entire school year without any education.

- Lina, the youngest at 5 years old, often says, "End the war - we are children - we want to live." But does anyone in the world hear her cries and respond to them?

For the past nine months, this family has been living in a small tent, barely 3 meters in size. Imagine spending every day, every night, and every moment in such cramped conditions. They need urgent support to rebuild their home and regain a sense of normalcy."

DONATIONS FOR PALESTINE

There have been a lot of campaigns reaching out to me, but reblogging them all is only creating clutter on my page rather than an easy way to find and donate. (I will still reblog for exposure, of course.) Here I'm going to put a list of vetted (and ones im unsure of) donation campaigns that you can donate to. This will remain pinned to the top of my page and I will add to it as I can.

Here is GazaVetters List PLEASE check it out! Another vetted list here.

I am also aware of scammers out there using this tragedy as a way to get money. This is why vetting is important. We want money to go to GAZA, not scammers! Be careful.

Before anyone comments anything against these Palestinians I'd like to make it incredibly clear - Whatever you believe about Palestinians as a whole does not matter here. It doesn't matter what you believe, no person deserves this pain, this ongoing suffering and torment on themselves and their loved ones. No one deserves to be ignored like this, to suffer as they have and continue to suffer.

There are fifty one accounts here. Hopefully I can add more as I find them, or as asks come in. Please take time to look at their accounts, share their stories, reblog. These are children, mothers, fathers, siblings, friends, mourning people. They deserve to be safe.

Help Palestinian Families Without Donating!

If you’re unable to donate and looking for a way to help Palestinians, I cannot recommend Artist Antics enough (@artistanticsllc) on TikTok and YouTube. Amanda is a soap maker raising money for three Palestinian families (listed below) and donating all of the profits from social media. All you have to do is watch a short video, comment (over nine words on YT for engagement), like, and press the copy link button. What I do is leave muted videos on repeat on a device I’m not using all day and overnight. This way, you get to support these families while watching cool soaps being made. There are also incentives for when we meet donation goals with sales on soaps and a chance to get your soap design made. 

The families:

Nagham is a 19-year old college student still trapped in Gaza with her family. They need funds to be able to evacuate once the borders open. Until then, they need support to afford to survive. In Gaza now, a carton of eggs can cost $70. Tents cost $1,000, and Nagham’s family’s tents have been destroyed by bombardment multiple times. They had to create a new link for their fundraiser recently and lost their progress. The family, including 8 adults and 2 babies, is now in Rafah. Nagham also needs money for her and her sisters’ educations and to rebuild their home after they evacuate. 

Abdulla was studying to be a doctor at the University of Gaza and has now evacuated with his family. He and his sisters need donations to survive and finish school. He was collecting donations for his father Walid’s cancer treatment, but he sadly passed away last month after a long and difficult battle. Walid was a doctor and their hope for income after evacuating, so now Abdulla needs more help than ever to continue his studying to support his family. This fundraiser was removed by GoFundMe, so they lost all of their progress. Incentives by Amanda from Artist Antics support this campaign. 

https://gofund.me/2a3cd494

Asma and Mohammed: This young couple was separated for almost a year and unable to reunite until they raised enough money. Though they were both able to evacuate to Egypt and Turkey, they could not reach each other. They lost everything, including their home and business in the bombing, and Asma’s sister and grandfather were martyred. Now they are getting married and need funds to rebuild their bakery and rent a house in Istanbul. 

Please help to support these families by following Artist Antics on all platforms and engaging with all of their videos as much as possible. Share with family and friends as well. If you want to donate and only have a dollar, send it to Amanda on Venmo. They donate everything they receive there as a lump sum. 

All fundraisers are verified and completely legitimate. Updates are posted on Artist Antics’ platforms.

More fundraisers for Gazans trying to escape genocide

@tahreer1990, at only $3,600 USD of a $65,000 goal. Tahrir is a mother of four children, one of whom has suffered a pelvic fracture.

@safaa18mero, at only $6,000 USD of a $75,000 goal. I'm struggling to summarize the ask I was sent, so I've copy-pasted it below.

An urgent and urgent appeal. Please do not stop reading. I am Safaa Asaad, a university student. I am 26 years old and married. I gave birth to my first child during the war. My life was full of love and optimism. I was distinguished in the field of law. I was diligent and had dreams and ambition. I intended to open my own law firm and defend the rights of others, diligence and perseverance. In restoring the rights to their owners, I got married while I was a student. I married the right man whom I had always been waiting for. We loved to always be together. He suffered before he married me. He worked hard to build the house and collect money to propose to me. His source of income was very good, and we got married and lived a good life. As time passed, the war came, and I had not completed the year. My marriage and our home were destroyed. My husband lost his job. My father, after seeing the destruction that befell our area, became unable to speak and became paralyzed from the outside. My husband, two months after entering the war, gave birth to my first child under difficult circumstances in a small tent full of insects and mosquitoes. I and my son could not live in a tent because of the insects, so we fled to escape. The border is under the shadow of the wall. We are suffering greatly, and now, after exhaustion and exhaustion, I decided to create a donation link to go out and save my family from Gaza. We were insulted and humiliated by the occupation army. The relative died and the relatives were killed. We were displaced. I cannot describe what happened to us. I ask you to save my family and get us out of Gaza with a donation. To us via the link, please donate, even if it is $10, it will make a difference to us. They can save us from death, and your donation will be a reason to save our lives, so my son can live the life I dreamed of, open a law firm, and open a project for my beloved husband. Please donate and support the💔💔😭😭 campaign.https://gofund.me/b25cb4bf

@asmaayyad, at only €4,300 of a €45,000 goal. Asmaa is part of a family of eight who have lost their home and their cat and now struggle to survive.

@jody-family, at only £600 of a £20,000 goal. Ahmed is 25 and has been responsible for providing for his family for three years, and dreams of owning a restaurant. This campaign is the only unvetted one on the list, and it's only unvetted because it's very new. It looks legitimate as far as I can tell.

[archaeologyfjones]

Do you ever travel to other countries to do your archeological research?

"Rarely! When I do I often drop Mattie a visit for academic reasons, and then María as well. Though I say that, she usually prefers to do things on her own, sometimes we get to work together, which is always a treat. I'd have to say my favorite sites have been in Morocco while I work with Asma - gosh, I ain't talked to her much lately. Oh! I've also been invited to the Pedra Furada site in Brazil by Miss Letícia. Some others I've had the honor to work with: Miss Subira and the wealth of sites in Tanzania and Miss Njeri in Kenya. The three of us adore paleoanthropology, though we don't really talk much. I would love to reach out to Tariku to see if there are any opportunities in Ethiopia...but there hasn't been much time."

((I would like to thank @crepegosette for allowing me to namedrop their wonderful Brazil OC, Letícia. All names for Tanzania, Kenya, and Ethiopia were by @peonycats who has some of the most amazing OCs in this fandom. Very wonderful mind! I should have asked before borrowing your names for them and for that I apologize.))

A Family's Heartbreaking Struggle

The Munna Tashmali family has faced unimaginable hardship and loss. Their home in Gaza has been destroyed three times by the wars on Gaza in 2014, 2021, and now again in 2024. Each time they have painstakingly rebuilt their lives and their home, but this time, they have lost not only their home but also any source of income. The compensation for their 2021 home destruction is still pending, and now they face the devastating reality of losing their home once more.

A Family in Need

This family consists of five children, each with their own dreams and hopes:

- Rima, the eldest, is a teenager who dreamed of decorating her room with the best furniture and devices, to build a future alongside her four younger siblings.

- Salah, 11 years old, has a deep love for football and admires stars like Messi, Ronaldo, and Mohamed Salah. He hasn't watched a match in nine months and missed an entire school year without any education.

- Lina, the youngest at 5 years old, often says, "End the war - we are children - we want to live." But does anyone in the world hear her cries and respond to them?

Living in Desperation

For the past nine months, this family has been living in a small tent, barely 3 meters in size. Imagine spending every day, every night, and every moment in such cramped conditions. They need urgent support to rebuild their home and regain a sense of normalcy.

How You Can Help?

This family needs your help to move to Egypt, where they can find safety and begin to rebuild their lives. Every donation, no matter the amount, can make a significant difference. Please donate to help this family escape the horrors of war and start anew.

Spread the Word
