Who am I? Who knows. I do, but I couldn't even begin to live in a world that doesn't even look around and see it's own population and existence to know what it is doing right now, let alone what it might have been if it didn't enslave itself.

I only have enough for one more month of rent before going homeless, please help if you can, I can't find employment and am truly trying:
(The money raised was from a few months ago and already went to those months of rent and food and basic living)
Thank you if you can help even a little by boosting even if you can't donate, just allowing me to be visible and share my truth from my OWN words, art, story, and perspective can be life saving when I can never even speak anymore because it's been walked over by abusive strangers who made up their own lies over me and ripped my life and stability and ability to stay alive from me. I need to be allowed to speak on my own behalf and be heard instead, otherwise I won't live much longer.
That's the first beginning to me even having a life, let alone a story or ability to be here at all that i've truly never had access to.
I hope I can share who I really am before it's too late and it already feels too far gone.
The War Is Almost Over… but Our Struggle to Rebuild Has Just Begun.
Every day here in Gaza feels like a year carved into our chests. The war isn’t like it was in the early days—the sky is quieter, the air carries less smoke, and the nights hold fewer explosions. But the pain… it still lives under the rubble, inside our memories, and in the empty spaces where our loved ones once stood.
I’m writing this today not because the war has completely ended, but because for the first time in a long while, it feels like the horizon is opening a little. A small space where we can breathe, gather ourselves, and try to rebuild what’s left of our lives.
Yet every step forward feels like walking on wounded memories, and every stone from our destroyed home whispers stories we never got to finish.
We lived through nights so heavy we thought morning would never come. We lost things that can never be replaced—homes, dreams, pieces of our hearts.
But we are still here… holding on, trying, fighting to stay standing despite everything.
And in the middle of this long road… there is a house. A house that once carried laughter, warmth, noise, and life.
Today, all that remains is an image holding a memory—and rubble longing for the people who once lived inside.
Today, we are trying to rebuild—not just the walls of a house, but an entire life that was shattered.
We are trying to create a new beginning, to live with dignity again, to give our family a sense of safety that we’ve been missing for so long.
We’re not writing this to mourn what was lost, but to ask for a chance to start again.
We ask for your support because rebuilding after a war is not something one person can do alone—it is a human effort, a shared act of compassion.
We need you.
We need your hearts.
We need your help to stand again.
My name is Abedmajed Elderawi, and I live in Gaza with what remains of my once large and loving family.
Because Gaza has no working banking system, we use my brother U.S. Stripe account to safely process donations for our family. Nothing is hidden — every dollar goes where it should. We are ready to show proof of anything, at any time.
Every contribution—no matter how small—makes a difference.
It becomes part of our story, part of rebuilding a home, part of reviving a life that nearly faded.
The war may be almost over… but our journey back to life begins now.
🌿✨
Thank you to every soul who still feels our pain, and to everyone who reaches out a hand to help us rise again.
After a lot of bills this month another medical emergency hit, and I overdrafted my account to pay for my husband's antibiotics following a hospital stay last night.If i cannot get the balance above -$50.00 by midnight, I'll be hit with an additional $35 overdraft fee.
Please help us if you can- we are a homeless trans couple in need! We don't qualify for many benefits that would help cover these costs, and I work full time.

I am Hani from Gaza, 🇵🇸 🍉✌️Palestine. I am speaking to you with a sad and heavy heart about what happened to me.My home and my livelihood were destroyed, and what is even more sad is that my foot was injured since March 7, 2024. I have been injured. I lost a joint in my foot and need to have an artificial joint installed in my Abdullah is 13 years old and has a singing talent with a very beautiful voice. He excelled in his studies very muchMy daughter Salma is 11 years old. Her hobbies are drawing and handicrafts. She loves her school very much. Unfortunately, it was completely destroyed.My little son Saleh, 7 years old, is the laughter of the house with his beautiful smile and shining eyes. He has not yet enrolled in the first grade of education. My children have lost their most important rights: education and practicing their hobbies.We lost all the beautiful memories in our destroyed house, we lost our summer and winter clothes, we live in a worn and torn tentLiving in a tent does not protect us from missiles or bullets, nor does it protect us from the heat of the sun and the bitter cold of winter.Winter is coming and my children have no clothes or coats.Life is very difficult in GazaGetting water is very difficult. My children walk long distances just to get a little water.I cannot sleep because of the severe pain from my injured foot. I need painkillers and medication every day until I can leave Gaza for treatment.I hope you, my friends, will share my story and help me and my family to stay alive. Your donations, even if small, will help us from the war of extermination we are living in 🍉🇵🇸.

Hello, my name sooad Muhammad, I am a 61-year-old mother and former school teacher from Gaza💔
After the army entered the city, we went out to Rafah under the attack of planes and missiles.And the bullets that spare no one, we lived in torn tents that did not protect from the heat, the cold, or the rain. All the words in the world cannot describe what we have lived through. All I want is for you to look at me and my family with a merciful heart and help me.
Before October 7th, I lived a humble life, dedicated to teaching and raising my children. But everything changed. Since that day, my family and I have been living in unimaginable conditions—without electricity, without clean water, without safety.
Our home was destroyed, and we now sleep in a torn tent, exposed to the freezing cold. My children cry from hunger and fear. The markets are empty or unaffordable. Bread is now a luxury—I knead pasta just to make something to fill their stomachs
Please open your heart and stand with us in this time of despair.
We are not asking for much—just a chance to survive. A blanket for the cold. A piece of bread. A roof that does not leak. A moment of peace for my children
I am humbly asking for your help. Your donation, no matter how small, can give us warmth, food, and hope. It can help us survive these dark days and rebuild a life with dignity.
Your support means the world to me and my family.
Please donate 🙏
All the destruction that you see, we live every day a hundred times, and we live hunger, death, and a life that has no taste of life

Hello, my name is Nadin. I’m from Gaza. I’m a graphic design graduate, a wife—and now, a mother.
I finished my design studies just before the war began. I had dreams of starting a small studio, of creating art that told stories. I used to think about colors and fonts and the future.
Then, the war came. And the future became something we tried to hold onto, moment by moment.
On October 22, 2023, I learned I was pregnant when a missile destroyed my husband’s family home, killing 25 members—his mother, siblings, nieces and nephews—entire branches of our family in seconds.
We were displaced twice. Everything was gone—home, safety, routine, rest.
A few weeks later, I gave birth to our daughter. There was no crib, no celebration—not even stillness. But she arrived, quietly and beautifully. In her eyes I saw something I hadn’t felt in weeks: life that still wanted to grow.
Now, our days are shaped by decisions that could dismantle the future we are trying to build together.
Today, Israel’s government is discussing plans for a full military occupation of the Gaza Strip, including Gaza City and southern regions. The stated aim: to eliminate Hamas and later hand governing control to allied Arab forces—not Israel—but with no clear path to peace or normalcy.
The humanitarian fallout is devastating. More than 61,000 Palestinians have died in this war; hunger and malnutrition are rising sharply. Hospitals in north Gaza have shut down, and 193 people have now died of starvation, nearly half of them children.
Aid remains blocked, water is scarce, and many risk dying of hunger or disease long before future promises arrive.
We Don’t Know What Comes Next
There’s no clear path forward—only uncertainty for our daughter’s life and our ability to survive another day.
My name is Nadin, and I’m a mother from Gaza.
How You Can Help
I’m asking for support—not for comfort, but for survival:
Help us meet basic needs so we can breathe, heal, and preserve a world for our daughter.
Support us as I try to stand again on my own feet—even a glimmer of stability matters.
If you’ve read this far, thank you. If you can give—thank you. If you can’t—just sharing this post is a lifeline I will never forget.
It's boring and harsh, and I couldn't bear this life. Even though the war is over, we haven't had any fun, and people are never happy. Tumblr users, can you help ease my suffering? Have you felt the loss of your mother and father? Have you felt the loss of your mind, your hand, or your foot? If you feel something sad or painful, you must contribute by sharing this post and donating to my family, which consists of a huge number of individuals and is in need of good nutrition. I'm not forcing you to donate, but your heart and mind should feel for us and donate anything.
The crossing will open soon, so we cannot leave without providing the appropriate funds for us because our number is large. Donate, even 50 euros, which can help a lot.
I'm starting testosterone today! The process was so unbelievably nice; I went to a gender affirming clinic and a lot of POC worked there. As a black trans man, it really put me at ease. Everyone was also super nice and respectful and used my correct pronouns.
I also got to send the prescription to my husband's pharmacy where he is a tech so he was able to help me expedite the process a lot faster than usual. I was blessed today and while I deal with a lot of religious guilt, I really felt like my God was present today and showed his approval.
