The world is very cruel towards Gaza, all governments and presidents talk about the 70 hostages being held, no one talks about the 2 million people who are being starved, killed and displaced daily in addition to dying from the severe cold,
The Gazan citizen was exposed to all kinds of death. What we witnessed in Gaza on the ground, I swear we did not see it in Hollywood. Imagine that citizens and children were burned on television screens and no one, including the leaders, came out to condemn it. Condemns these heinous acts against Palestine We are literally exposed to all kinds of killing, hunger, severe cold, and suffering in all its forms. Words cannot describe what we are going through. Please help us to survive this devastating war.
My family needs you more than ever and any donation helps us. Donation link here
remember when israel bombed a hospital fourteen months ago they said that they would never do anything like that only to bomb every single hospital in gaza and then target schools and refugee camps and kindergartens and un shelters?
remember how everyone was angry when al shifa hospital was bombed? why are we all silent now when israel is bombing kamal adwan hospital in gaza? where is that anger now? why aren't the events taking place in north gaza on the forefront of your mind?
while we are going about our days, there are multiple massacres taking place in gaza. we are living in comfort while our tax money is being used to bomb children.
are we becoming desensitised to genocide? desensitised to the cruelty the occupation inflicts on gaza every second of every day?
earlier in the genocide, we all came together to help palestinians evacuate. we would do our best to help. now we've simply started tuning out fundraisers. is this what we've come to? ignoring people who are going through a genocide?
i just want people to come together and help my friend alaa. she has two children and needs to feed them and ensure that they're warm in this cruel winter. donate to her fundraiser if you have the means to, share if you can't donate.
With the blockade imposed by Israel, it is extremely important to support grassroots organizations. They provide aid to multiple families on the ground. The Sameer Project is one organization. It is led by 4 Palestinians in the diaspora and Gazans are risking their lives while distributing the aid to ensure families are accommodated.
The Sameer Project provides food and shelter. As you know, the rainy season is persistent and many families have been displaced by the sea. The high tide has caused many to lose their tents, the only shelter they have. So please donate to the Sameer Project! With your support, they can branch out to families across the Strip!
Here is their Linktree, which also includes Venmo and PayPal.

This is an initiative aiming to buy food, diapers, and other necessities in bulk to distribute to the residents of Mawasi Al-Qarara camp. The campaign is vouched for by one of my contacts in Gaza, who lives in the camp and will be helping with distribution.
From the campaign page:
The families in the Mawasi Al-Qarara area are facing unbearable challenges, being displaced from their homes and living under the constant threat of missiles, disease, and starvation. We aim to provide as much aid as possible using every penny given to us. Mohammed and his brothers, Salah and Youssef, will be on the ground distributing everything to the people of the camp.
These families are in desperate need of help.
We hope to alleviate some of their fears and worries of death by starvation or illness, as they navigate such challenging circumstances. Your support can make a significant difference. Thank you for your generosity.
First, I want to thank you all so much for your incredible generosity. Because of you, we were able to raise $4,000 USD in just 2 full days. I cannot put into words how remarkable this is. When we received word of the refund, that we lost more than $3000, Nour’s family and I were completely without hope. But you all accomplished the impossible.
It is only because of what you accomplished that I now believe we can meet our next goal.
Nour was able to undergo surgery. It was long and extremely difficult for the doctors. The surgery was ultimately successful. However, Nour’s condition is not resolved. The immediate danger has been met, but now Nour requires a new medication and diet to survive.
This medication will cost $2000 USD every week. Her new diet requires she consume 2 eggs a day, so 14 every week. As of right now, the average cost of eggs in Gaza is $8 USD. 2000 + (14 x 8) = $2,112 USD a week
How you can help:
Reblog this post
Boost @nohaibrahims-blog posts
Make your own tumblr posts with the family’s GFM link (feel free to copy and paste our words) and share with relevant tags (see our tags for inspiration, but feel free to use your own)
Share Nour’s story and her family’s GFM link all across your social media accounts (Instagram, Threads, X/Twitter, TikTok, BlueSky, etc)
Donate anything you can (If you have an income, set aside a percentage of it to send every week, and set up a recurring donation on GFM)
This sounds like a lot of money, and it is. But if we could raise $4000 in 2 days, I know we can raise $2000 in 7 days!
Thank you all again. Keep up the wonderful work💜

After experiencing complications with gofundme, Mohiy and his family are now relying on paypal to receive donations. Please support his family through the link above and share.
Most of the funds Mohiy was able to raise on gofundme have gone towards his family's survival. With the rising costs of goods, they need continued support to be able to meet their most basic needs. Resources are scarce and expensive as it is, but winter has added to the suffering of everyone in Gaza, making the needs for things like warm food, warm clothes, and shelter even greater as cold and rain worsen already dangerous living conditions. Mohiy's mother, who suffers from chronic illness, is especially vulnerable right now due to the freezing temperatures.
Please donate and share to help offer Mohiy and his family some relief. Every contribution helps, no matter how small.
Do not really know what to say. A year ago we were making posts about how Gaza was being bombed through Christmas- how the oldest Christian community was being bombed- how the birth place of Jesus was being destroyed and his people murdered. A year later, it is going to be Christmas again soon, and the bombings have not stopped. But the news, and the attention seems to have died down considerably. It feels terrible and scary.
While in past years we celebrated New Year's in the streets and hotels of Gaza, today there are no signs of this left. The Zionists have destroyed everything. Stones and trees have fallen, but strength will not fall from our souls, God willing.
We hope that the celebrations this year will bear the slogan of a ceasefire in Gaza, a cease to genocide, and a halt to the killing of children. Yesterday I said goodbye to my cousin, and before that to my friends.
The years have become painful memories for us. We now want with all our might to stop this genocide.
Please donate to Siraj. In this festival of giving, consider donating even a little. There are ten children in the family all of whom should have had the chance to celebrate like the rest of the world. However, as it is now, there is very little left to celebrate in Gaza. But the funds donated will help as it will go into providing the kids and the rest of the family with the bare necessities.

Siraj and his family is on number 219 on nabulsi and Hussein's doc. The gofundme link has changed, because the old campaign was abruptly closed by the fundraising site.
All the occasions are passing by, everyone in the planet is celebrating the new year but in Gaza time stopped on October 7th, where the devastating war began!
We give our child martyrs as gifts to heaven, as a sacrifice against global injustice, one day we will reach freedom, we wish you a beautiful Christmas but do not forget the children of Gaza in your prayers 🙏🏼🫂🌲🍉
Our Christmas is under bombings and deadly cold, our Christmas is one more day of suffering 😓
The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics said that the Israeli forces kill 4 children every hour in the Gaza Strip, while UNICEF said that more than 600,000 children in gaza are suffering from hunger, fear and cold. The Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip last October, there are 17,850 children, constituting 44% of the total number of martyrs. He pointed out that more than 45,000 Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip are currently living without their parents or one of them.
Therefore, I can -even if I have serious health problems due to poor diet (vomiting of blood and stomach ulcers) I try to support the children and the Gazan people 🍉
My family is an example of the suffering we are going through in genocide, it destroys my heart every day to see my relatives dying of hunger and cold 😓

I want to bring your attention to Jana's (@janaabunaje) campaign because her family is falling apart due to the genocidal war in Gaza. The extremely high cost of basic necessities in Gaza is causing a huge financial strain on the family. This not only means a lack of food and water for the children, but it is also driving her parents apart. Jana's father wants to divorce her mother due to the lack of money. Jana is really worried about her family, she is really worried about how they are going to survive, and Jana is only 11 years old.
Jana also has 2 little brothers ages only 9 and 5. Their father was injured in a bombing and thus can no longer work. Now there are no jobs for both their mother and their father. There is no money for them to buy food, there is no money for them to buy clothes and blankets to protect them from the cold and the rain. They are now living in a shabby tent that does not shield them from the weather well.
Imagine living through a literal genocide, with bombs falling all around you, no food, no water, and now your parents are going through a divorce! Jana and her brothers are so young, I don't know how they are dealing with this. Please help them! Every little bit helps!

Only €1,161 raised of €50K goal (2%)! Only 1 donation in more than 24 hours!
answering a couple questions i got on this post since i realized ppl genuinely wanna know:
tl;dr:
israel lets very, very little aid get into gaza. even the UN can't get in as much as they want to. funding individual families, gazan led initiatives, and mutual aid collectives operating out of gaza ensures gazans can provide for themselves and pay for the extremely expensive aid that is available.
with all the civil infrastructure destroyed by israel, the situation on the ground has devolved into unrestricted capitalism, driving up the price of aid (that should be free!). this makes it more urgent for people to have funding for daily survival.
the post linked above has examples of how donating to individual families can help a lot. if you want to help more than one family at a time, there are many gazan-led initiatives focusing on rebuilding their infrastructure and distributing aid fairly that are worth donating to instead of large charities that already get the majority of donations.
as i mentioned in the last post: @/careforgaza on twitter is a nonprofit started by gazans, it's been endorsed by multiple palestinian journalists.
the sameer project is a collective organized by diaspora palestinians offering emergency shelter to gazans.
ele elna elak is a project aiming to bring water, food, shelter, etc. to gazans and has been promoted by bisan owda.
and the municipality of gaza itself is fundraising to rebuild water infrastructure.
all of these organizations are active inside gaza right now and are being run by gazans. if anyone knows of other gazan-led mutual aid projects, nonprofits or charities feel free to link them in the notes! hope this helped!
long answers under the cut!
if you wanna donate to a charity that's absolutely fine, but the thing is most charities (and even the UN!) are unable to make it into gaza in the first place, leaving aid rotting at the egyptian side of the border or subject to israeli settler attacks
not to mention, charities and nonprofits also maintain a paternalistic colonial relationship with the indigenous people they are trying to help, determining what aid they need for them instead of returning power to them and letting them make their own choices
i'm not here to say that one option is better than the other, just that they achieve different things and are equally legitimate. there's an attitude among people who question the legitimacy of these gofundme campaigns that somehow the people promoting them are telling them not to donate to charities. nobody is stopping you from donating to charities. we are just asking that you do not dehumanize the very real gazans in your inbox just because their method of asking for aid is more direct and risky.
unfortunately that's exactly what has happened. because israel destroyed all of gaza's more formalized infrastructure, it seems that organized crime and rampant inflation has taken its place. aid is supposed to be free, but in order to save for evacuation or the cost of living, people have started selling them at an inflated price. and aid that is truly free attracts intense, large crowds that are dangerous to navigate.
this was posted on abc a few days ago
it's pure, unrestrained capitalism. i've had multiple palestinians describe this situation to me confidence. that's why everything's so expensive now. why people have to rent out tiny plots of land for their tents to sit on, why my friend @siraj2024 still has to buy tarps to cover the broken windows of the overpriced bombed out apartment he rented, and why a bag of flour can cost a thousand bucks in the north.
even before israel closed and then bombed the rafah crossing, the egyptian hala travel agency was only allowing people to cross the border if they paid a hefty $5000 USD per adult / $2500 USD per child bribe. it denies doing this, but the hundreds of stories from palestinians say otherwise.
with regard to the economy, here in america we saw something similar happen in the wake of hurricane helene and milton. the podcaster margaret killjoy describes how she saw dual economies rise after asheville was fully cut off from the rest of the country - some people offered each other supplies for free in a sort of mutual aid honor system, and some people required payment when they lent supplies because they themselves needed to buy stuff for their families. these dual economies exist in gaza too. and this means they all still need money to survive.
plugging gaza soup kitchen for those with the means to donate! it's another gazan-led initiative currently providing food, water, classes for children, and medical care across the north and south. you can donate through their website or their gofundme, or follow them on instagram for news about their projects
I know most of tumblr is thinking about the USA right now. but fuck the nz government right now too. tomorrow, the treaty principles bill, the 'worst, most comprehensive breach of Te Tiriti in modern times' is being introduced to parliament early, because there were activations planned country wide and the cowards decided to pull it forwards. fuck this government. a friend of mine had to go home early, crying. I've been in shock all day since it came out.
check on your Māori friends, e hoa mā. see what they need. see how you can help. everyday, we see and experience racism. from people around us, up to our government. community care will save us.
the most depressing part is that it's not even kamala's stance on genocide that is costing her the elections. i wish it were. it's people genuinely shifting for trump. but it's the pro-palestine movement that's going to get the blame for it.
obviously she fucked up on that front and on multiple other fronts (an understatement) but if these results have showed anything it's that the alt right white majority will never vote for a black woman even if she were perfect. but liberals will blame arabs for the faults of white nationalism and misogyny. at this point if you're blaming the pro-palestine movement and saying shit like "are you happy now? is this what you wanted?" you're just brimming with anti-arab hatred that you're desperate to release at any given opportunity
so what now? the genocide is still ongoing and the rise of fascism is unimpeded but now people will point to those most affected by it and saying "this is what you wanted, right?" and you and i could spend the next four years arguing and yelling at those people or we can do something that matters.
mahmoud needs to pay his fees in 5 days or he will fail this semester.
amal needs to meet the soaring prices of baby food in gaza for the sake of her daughter maryam.
look out for the vulnerable and watch out for the way people are venting their frustration at fascism by blaming its victims.
please reblog this version. anger without action is nothing. if you feel like this is the end of the world remember that this is just another day of the genocide for those in gaza.
