It’s rare to feel happy in northern Gaza. But the other day, my sister Soso made me smile.
It’s not a lie that sugar is expensive. 1kg is $80. Frying oil is $70. That donut was expensive to make, even without the sugar. But it’s okay. Even if it means the adults can’t eat, it’s okay. Soso was happy for a few hours. She’s only 4 years old yet her life is already so hard. She’s not growing properly due to malnutrition and trauma. Her mental health is in shambles, not at all how a child should be. Since birth, two wars have come very close to killing her, so we just want her to be happy.
Please help me make her happy every day. A few days ago, she was the happiest child in the world because she ate an apple for the first time in a year. That won’t happen again because fruits are too expensive, but I swear, she explodes with joy when we buy vegetables too. She is a child with simple dreams.
Please don’t feel hesitant to help me, my campaign has been vetted!

[ID: A drawing of Stanley Pines from Gravity Falls. He is smiling softly with blushed cheeked, looking away, and holding his hands close to himself in a self soothing gesture. Small speech bubbles float around him, pointing off screen to imply they're coming from an unseen crowd. The speech bubbles all include emojis such as: a heart, a happy blushing face, thankful/prayer hands, a kissing face, and a thumbs up. The drawing mentioned to be found under the cut is the same drawing, but drawn to look closer to the show style. End ID.]
