Support Palestinians in need
Here are 12 donation campaigns from Palestinians who desperately need our support. I have not personally validated the following fundraisers but I think it is more important to err on the side of generosity and support for those who might need it versus withholding that support due to mistrust and cynicism. That said, I will not repost paypal links. Only GoFundMes that have images with no reverse-image search results. There are so many real people suffering in that region that require urgent support. Please join me in donating what you can.

Mohammad Salama and his family (@mohamednabilsalama) have experienced the violence firsthand. In December, their home was bombed and destroyed entirely. The mother and father both emerged with broken legs. Their two children were somehow less fortunate. 3-year-old Amir was shot in the back. 2-year-old Taim was shot in the face and hands. We need to help provide a way out for them. Their campaign has raised kr28,102 SEK of their kr200,000 goal ($5 is roughly equivalent to kr55, last I checked). Their identity has been verified by others living in the area. Find their GoFundMe here.
Safaa Jad Al Haq (@safaa18mero) is an excellent lawyer, having graduated at the top of her class. She gave birth to her son Amir during the genocide. She had little to no medical treatment or pain management during pregnancy and childbirth, and now her son too lacks basic necessities. Any financial support we can offer goes towards providing safety and medical treatment for her family, including her parents' health issues. Their campaign has raised $20,020 of their $75,000 goal.
