i’m realizing i’m definitely not a no strings attached sex type person nor am i a slow burn type person which is devastating because it took me several people and relationships to learn this lesson
Well I’m working with 0 brain cell and I haven’t gotten even close to meeting any of my own goals with crowdfunding in a long time but my best friend (who I have also tried and failed crowdfunding for over the past few months, he is continuously struggling with houselessness) is having the worst day ever like a really hard time. His laptop broke today. He only has pancakes to eat. He was supposed to start working yesterday but it was pushed back by a whole week at the last second. It is 1 thing after another. Our goal is $30 for real food and maybe a little weed
My links are heartemojie on cashapp & Venmo and 13thead on paypal, I’ll send it directly to him as always + I’m happy to share proof if needed. Thank you <3
Some bloggers were less than pleased with my most recent posts where I talked about how Palestine has become a momentary trend for many, and accused me of trying to "guilt trip". They even predicted that these posts wouldn't bring in any sustained support for Siraj Abudayeh ( @siraj2024 ) and advised me to instead keep it to the point. Well alright then, let's keep it short and get to the point:
Siraj Abudayeh is a journalist who is fundraising to survive and rebuild in Gaza as he has no plans to evacuate
Recently he became the sole provider of FIVE FAMILIES- both his own and that of his parents and married siblings, after they all fled to him to escape the recent IOF attacks.
As he is now fundraising to bear the cost of all 23 family members, he is even more desperate to finish his campaign.
What the family needs most now is access to clean drinking water. With 10 children ( Siraj's sons and their cousins) to take care of and with the polio epidemic spreading in camps, this is imperative.
He has requested us to help him buy a submersible water generator and network tools. This is costly but with water treating plants and other facilities being completely destroyed, this is the only long term solution for now.
For 11 months Siraj has hesitated to buy a water generator. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to manage it while also making sure that his family had something to eat. But since there are more children (all between 6 and 12 years of age) to take care of now, he cannot put this off anymore. The settler state has already unchilded them- they risk their lives and walk long distances to look for drinkable water to carry back in heavy pails, when they instead should have been working on their homeworks or playing. Siraj wants them to at least be relatively safe from having to take such risks to survive.
Siraj needs to reach 70k by THURSDAY, that is within 3 days, so that he can start the process of making a purchase. You said that I do not need to write scathing posts to have your attention, so I am here now requesting you to act upon Siraj’s plea for help.
He is currently only at $65,393 CAD . That is 4.6k away from our next short term goal. Boost and donate and help him access clean water for the children.
Banks in the US are actively complicit in the forced starvation of Palestinians. Palestinians have known since the Holy Land 5 that anything we do for Palestine can get us sent to jail and it's a risk we have been willing to take. But now banks even refuse to allow us to send aid to a population that has nothing. Almost every public and private sector powerhouse in the world intends to wipe out the Palestinian people and Palestine and they're more than content in lending a hand in it.
Additional context abt the American tradition of criminalizing charity involving Muslims, for people who didn't realize this is an escalation of an existing type of islamophobic persecution: https://www.aclu.org/wp-content/uploads/publications/blockingfaith.pdf
BTW, this is a thing that is apparent in most banking/payment methods. Paypal, among Palestinians regardless of faith, is notorious for blocking accounts randomly.
Beneath outward manifestations of bias is a hidden and unpredictable layer of discrimination embedded in our computer systems, algorithms, a
Ispu conducted a study that shows American Muslims face one of the highest rates of prejudices while banking:
From closed accounts and denied transactions to investigations, Muslims are the most likely faith group to report challenges with financial

hi it's me again, still begging literally anybody to give anything you can spare to help mohammed and his family. i don't want to Make Content about genocide, i think it should be enough to point out that they're currently living through one, but here's a concrete way our donations will help: half of his family literally does not even have a tent right now, and we can help them afford one.
he needs to reach 400,000 SEK by friday.
if even 1/10th of my followers can donate 150 SEK (roughly $15 USD) he'll already hit that goal, plus a donation that size is eligible to win one of the @horreurscopes prints below.
this campaign has been going since may btw, and the total goal is less than 50k USD. he's more than 60% of the way there, i know we can get him across the finish line, but i am begging and pleading for even one iota of sustained attention to this family's incredibly dire situation. please. i don't think this is something that should need to be wrung out of you by force
TIME SENSITIVE: Get Hazem's Family to 40k by SUNDAY
Hi all, by the time I am writing this there has been no donations in more than 2 hours. Only €75 in the past 5 hours. We very seriously need to stand up and keep supporting Hazem's family until they reach their goal.
just three hours ago today (September 1), the iof bombed a school in North Gaza, which is used as a temporary shelter for displaced Palestinians. rescue efforts are currently ongoing, but there have been 11 bodies recovered. since october, more than HALF of the schools and universities have been targeted—and often reduced to rubble—directly by carpet bombings and drone strikes.
Every day food scarcity grows worse in North Gaza. Every day schools and food aid centers and water distribution sites are specifically targeted and bombed. What more do you need to see that would convince you of the urgency and danger of the situation?
Please continue to stand behind Hazem's family. It seems if I am not glued to the campaign page there is no one else to advocate for them. The parents still don't have the funds to evacuate with their children. Please donate. Every amount counts.
No donations for almost 3 hours now. We need 40k by Sunday, Hazem's family are scared the carpet bombings are about to return any minute. Let's get them there.
€30,846 / €50,000 full campaign goal as of September 1. We need to raise €9,154 in the next week.

Raffles for donors that will run until Hazem's family has reached their goal:

please help. North Gaza was bombed again today. this is the 4th bombing in the past 9 days.
there hasnt been a donation in 3 hours for this family. €30,846 / €32,000 short term goal urgently needed in the next 12 hours. Please help this family raise the remaining €1,154

hi! i would like to highlight this fundraiser. i hope everyone who comes across this would help @mohammed-atallah (Muhammad Atallah and his family) in any way they can. scan the qr code (i got it from haruka aoki's pub materials) and donate.
Hello kind friends and dear community,
My name is Haruka A… Haruka Aoki needs your support for Bone Grafting Operation for Muhammad & Ho
Further details from Ahmed Alostaz, Muhammad's brother-in-law
"My wife's brother, Muhammad, was going to bring aid from the Nabulsi roundabout. He was shot in his left hand by an explosive bullet, which led to nerve loss and bone fragmentation. He needs a bone graft outside Gaza, but the situation is difficult for them. Their house was completely destroyed, and Muhammad's father is also unwell and needs constant medical care. The family is focusing their efforts on caring for Muhammad, as he will need many operations to restore his hand to what it was, and also on rebuilding their destroyed home."
as of writing this post, this campaign is only around 16% completed. and their family is very grateful for it. here is an [Aug 21, 2024] update taken straight from their gfm:
[...]
I am Iman, the eldest sister of Muhammad. There are no words to express how grateful my family and I are to all of you. We are a family of 13, including my young children Malak and Amir, Retaj, Rahaf, Saja, Alaa, Amani, Iman, Sobhi, Alaa, and Ahmed, my husband, and my brother Muhammad, who is injured. When we launched this fundraising campaign, I never imagined that it would receive so much love, generosity and compassion. I was honestly starting to lose hope and wondered if our innocent children would ever find safety again; I was preparing for the worst. Your unwavering support made me and my family feel hopeful again.
[...]
Please continue to support us and share our story so that our children and grandchildren can survive this brutal and relentless slaughter of our people and not just become numbers on your phone screens. I know that donations are not easy in these times, but I believe that every contribution has the power to change someone's life. That is why I am participating in this campaign with all my faith, not only to save them, but also to protect their dreams and help them get out of Gaza.
[...]
We will never forget how you stood by us during the darkest times of our lives. Thanks to each and every one of you, safety is no longer a distant dream. Things will never be the same again, but knowing that there are brave souls out there who will always stand by us is what keeps us from completely giving in to despair. With your help and generous donations, we can leave Gaza and build a new life and rise from the rubble.
[...]
tag list under the cut for wider reach. i hope it's okay. dm me to be included/excluded. tysm. 🇵🇸 from the river to the sea, palestine will be free within our lifetime.

also, if you can please (1) follow mohammed's other accounts @atalah-mohammed and @mohammedatallahsblog (2) upload these photos outside tumblr so that more people can contribute to his campaign. he would appreciate it a lot.
as stated in Muhammed Atalla's posts. he's "been suffering from an injured arm since February 25th, 2024 when the Israeli war criminals shot him in the left hand with an EXPLOSIVE BULLET."
[for reference] here is a 2023 clip of the said lethal weapon:
He is in need of many surgeries as soon as possible, otherwise he may get an infection and his arm may fall off!
this is a legitimate fundraiser created last July 4th, 2024.

from August 21st, 2024 update of Iman (Muhammad's eldest sister)
Before this war, I was a business administration student in my last semester of university in Gaza. I was looking forward to graduating and using my new degree to help my husband with work. But I lost my home and my university. I also lost my uncle, who was killed. He too had young children as I do. My family lost all of their livelihoods to this war, and we continue to cling onto life. We are currently surviving in miserable conditions - my young children Amir and Malak (whose photo I've shared here) cry because of the lack of basic food. Muhammad awaits his evacuation and surgery, and my father is in need of medical treatment as well. We always try hard to provide a living as hunger and thirst attempt to kill us.
if you could talk about this fundraiser outside tumblr (e.g. posting in your insta or encouraging your irl close acquintances to consider contributing to atallah family), it would be appreciated a lot. this is urgent and demands an action now! our €5, a mere drop in comparison to the total money needed, would impact their lives. it's been said multiple times already but
I REALLY URGE ALL OF YOU TO IMAGINE EVEN JUST A FRACTION OF THE SUFFERING OF OUR PALESTINIAN FRIENDS. AS IF IT IS YOURS. FEEL FOR THEM AS WE FEEL FOR OUR LOVED ONES. LOOK AT THEIR SMILES AND AT THEIR TEARS. AND THEN DO WHATEVER IN YOUR CAPACITY TO ALLEVIATE THEIR PAIN.
here is another poster i made for my friend muhammad. please do whatever you think is necessary with it. i trust whoever reading this post to empathize and stop looking the other way to pretend that everything should be business as usual. do better and always do your best.
do not forget that behind the photos we see and scroll past are human beings. so please be nice! also, a reminder to please follow his accounts:

EXTREMELY LOW FUNDS! Only €5 raised of €50,000 goal!!
Falastin started to fundraise for her family in late June, and only 1,372/194,597 $ was raised so far. Her family is still stuck in Gaza with little water and food.
I still do daily updates on the olive tree that I started drawing a week ago, and this time tree grew for 40 $ (420 kr).
Lets raise 2,500 $ (25,694 kr) by the end of this week! DONATION LINK
15$ = 154 Swedish kr
100$ = 1,027 Swedish kr
1000$ = 10,277 Swedish kr
The evacuation price for one person is 10k $ but any money would help them survive right now. To help with that I also opened commissions for donations to the fundraiser:
If you want to commission something simply donate any amount above 10$ to the gofundme and send me a dm with confirmation. You can also dm me first to agree on the price and then donate.
