critically stagnant spotlight campaigns for today (7/17.)

all campaigns are vetted by the organizers of gaza funds. this site has been vouched for by palestinian bloggers. for full transparency, a list of campaigns is available to view on their site. additionally, if you look at my list of individual campaigns, you will see that i personally trust these campaigns and have donated to them many times.

bessan khalaf: 16 days since last donation

dr. isam: 16 days since last donation

nada muhaisen: 13 days since last donation

basim and hla: 13 days since last donation

yasmin's family: 10 days since last donation

yahia hawajry: 10 days since last donation

ghazi mekawi: 9 days since last donation

hassan abdullah: 9 days since last donation

campaigns in danger of becoming critically stagnant:

ghada and abdulrahman: 4 days since last donation

rania alneder: 4 days since last donation

ahmed atallah: 4 days since last donation

individual posts for these campaigns are generally ignored, which is why i've moved to using this pinned post instead. it simply takes me too long to queue up a bunch of posts people will just scroll past. please don’t ignore this, you have the opportunity to throw someone a lifeline and do some real good. even if you don’t have any money, a reblog is free and can help get more eyes on these campaigns. none of them are on tumblr, to my knowledge. nobody sees these campaigns unless people reblog posts about them or make their own posts.

thank you in advance for your consideration.

[prokopetz]

You know, when I've remarked that a lot of the responses to my posts feel like people are just plucking out keywords they think they recognise based on the shape of them and replying to what they imagine the post says based on that, the possibility never occurred to me that this is actually how many American schools are currently teaching kids to read.

[prokopetz]

Like, my assumption this whole time has been that when folks go "I misunderstood this post that says [thing] as saying [unrelated thing] because I mistook [word] for [completely different word that happens to start with the same letter]", that was a bit. What do you mean they're teaching kids a reading method that's tailored to produce this exact error?

[buggyhuman]

Three cueing. Once you learn about it, a whole lot of very frustrating online discourse with US Americans makes so much sense 😭

How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have

[woodsfae]

If you were taught to read with the three cueing method, and now struggle to read fluently, you can still learn to read properly!

My name is Nour, I’m 18 years old. I once dreamed of becoming a doctor—to help people, to heal, to bring hope. I studied hard and believed that education was my way out😭.

But the war took everything.💔

In a single moment, my home was destroyed. Everything I loved—my books, my memories, my dreams—was buried under rubble.😭😭💔💔

Now, I live with my family in a torn tent. It doesn’t protect us from the cold or the burning heat. We have no food, no clean water, no safety—nothing.😭😭💔💔

Every night we sleep not knowing what tomorrow will bring: a chance at life… or more pain.🍉🍉

My mother is elderly and needs care. I used to dream of helping others, but today I can’t even help my own family.💔🍉

I’m reaching out to every kind heart reading this: please, help us. Any amount, any support, means the world.🙏🙏💔🍉

Your kindness could help us survive… and maybe, one day, I’ll return to school and chase my dream again.❤️

STOP SCROLLING, MY BABY QAIS’S WOUND OPENED AGAIN BEFORE MY EYES.

I started using torn, worn-out clothes instead of medical bandages for my baby Qais, and his wound became infected and opened again because I cannot afford proper supplies anymore.

[savee-baby]

Tonight, I could not properly clean Qais’s wound because medical supplies are too expensive, so I stood there terrified, watching the infection and bleeding grow worse before my eyes.

[savee-baby]

I beg you as a broken mother in Gaza who cannot protect her child from pain, hunger, and death. Please, don’t leave my baby Qais alone in this nightmare—donate now and help me save his life.

Please donate now Gofundme

[savee-baby]

OH MY GOD, I felt my heart break as I saw my baby Qais unable to move or respond, lying there in pain, and I could not help him. Please donate now and save him

[savee-baby]

The doctors told me his condition has become extremely critical, and without immediate treatment, he may not survive another night, so so I ask, can you help me get treatment for my baby Qais??

[huzni]

as-Salēm 3aleīcum, folks. You probably already know about Ibrahim @aburakhiaibrahim and his parents, amongst the millions trapped in a life-or-death cycle systemically imposed on them in the Gaza Strip.

After surviving a coma and struggling to care for his elderly parents in a flooded, storm-ravaged tent, they still face the most immediate threat: he's had persistent hardships trying to afford very critical medication for his condition. As of now, he's been able to procure only 5 days-worth of meds, whilst still needing to afford basic groceries as well.

Due to the zionist siege and ensuing artificial scarcity, the price of his pills has skyrocketed beyond reach. Without them and proper medical care the occupation won't let him get in Gaza, doctors have warned his condition might further deteriorate. Every missed dose brings him closer to irreversible collapse.

His only path to survival is join his sister in Canada along with his parents, where they can finally access consistent healthcare, shelter, and safety. But right now, he cannot even afford the medicine that would keep him alive long enough to evacuate.

We helped him survive the coma and the storms. We cannot let him die waiting for pills. Please, help them get nurturing along with his meds.

Their GoFundMe campaign is now at just a wee over half their travel expenses:

And you can donate to them here:

PayPal, for daily and medical expenses

GoFundMe, to contribute to their travel expenses

Remember their campaign has been verified as #336 by @gaza-evacuation-funds

Please, donate what you can. Even small amounts add up to a dose. If you can't, please reblog this post, as exposure is their only supply line until Allāh ﷻ knows when.

Don't let a vulnerable person die from a treatable condition in plain sight. This is not just aid, it's a race against a blockade that prices people out of their own survival.

@staff have barred Ibrahim from using Tumblr altogether.

[kiirodora]

Though Ibrahim hasn't been present on Tumblr due to staff terminating his blogs, he's still in dire need of help. Ibrahim is currently looking for someone to help donate once a month to his new GoFundMe; $5 or $10, anything someone can comfortably give to help him and his mother.

If you'd be able to donate monthly, please consider helping Ibrahim!

Ibrahim's GoFundMe has only received 2 donations in the last two weeks, and has been stagnant for nearly a month. Please donate if you can, Ibrahim and his family badly need donations and their situation is still dire. They truly can't afford for their campaign to stagnate like this. Tagging below:

Oh my God, my wife has been in the hospital unconscious for a two week.

My wife is suffering from severe malnutrition and is five months pregnant. We've been here at the hospital for a week, fighting for her.

My wife urgently needs treatment in order for her condition to improve.

We are living through catastrophic conditions; we are suffering from a severe shortage of food and medicine.

We urgently need 450 euros to secure the necessary treatment and food for my wife and unborn child before her health deteriorates further. I implore you, with compassion, to help me and stand by me in my ordeal. I cannot bear to see my wife die before my eyes; she means so much to me.😭

[motasem-family2]

In this cursed war, I lost my mother and older brother due to lack of medical treatment caused by the war and the siege. The pain of loss is unbearable; my heart still aches every day because of their absence. 😭

[motasem-family2]

Please help me secure the necessary treatment for my wife. Support me; don't leave me alone in this cruel world that abandons us to die alone. 😭

[motasem-family2]

Please don't leave me alone. I beg you to help me save my wife. I don't want to lose her. I want her to recover and stand by me so we can continue our lives together. 😭
