Hello, my name is Mosab Elderawi, and I am trying to survive.
I never thought I would have to ask strangers for help, but I lost 25 family members in a single attack.
💔 My mother is gone. My sisters are gone. My nieces, my uncles—taken away in an instant.
💔 Our home was destroyed completely.
💔 We have been displaced twice, moving from place to place, trying to find shelter.
Even after everything, I refuse to give up.
🏠 My younger siblings still have dreams. I want to help them hold onto hope, even when everything feels impossible.
🙏 But right now, we have nothing. No home. No stability. No certainty about what happens next.
I am asking for help, not because I want to, but because I have no choice.
Even $5 could bring us a step closer to stability. And if you can’t donate, sharing this post could help us reach someone who can.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Thank you for giving us hope.

i think another big difference between salt and pepper is that pepper just cares about stuff a lot more like especially if you watch them in alternate reality show salt is very nonchalant about everything and it’s PEPPER who’s keeping everything going like she’s the one who asks chives for the challenge bell she’s the one who brings up to test tube that she doesn’t belong she’s the one who takes action when lightbulb uproots their whole system
but salt on the other hand? while peppers getting the challenge started she’s just chilling trying to have her drink. when test tube calls her the evident leader she just goes with it with little emotion or thinking about it. in this world she’s been so conditioned to being in charge and being the top dog and everything just kind of being taken care of for her that she never assumes that anyone would challenge her. in her mind this is her show, and her fashion show, and her friend pepper who is her equal but not quite as important as she is
the alternate reality show episode is such a good case of salt and peppers characters because it perfectly showcases what happens when they are taken to the extreme, when pepper never stands up to salt and goes along with everything she says, when salt is too caught up in her own ego that she doesn’t notice the damage she’s doing around her
salt assumes that things are and will be a certain way, and because of that she doesn’t put a lot of care out because there isn’t a lot of work she has to do
pepper on the other hand, has SO much work to put in and HAS to care so much because if she doesn’t keep their show rolling, it crumbles. if she doesn’t pull salt away from oj, someone’s going to snap. if she doesn’t care about salt and put so much effort into following her, what else is there to her character? to her IDENTITY?
salt is unchallenged in her views specifically because of how pepper is constantly picking up the pieces for her, so what would happen if she were to suddenly stop?
hi it's great to see so many people who agree that the scam accusers on here are full of it! if you'd like to take this opportunity to actually help a real verified gazan family, mohammed iwais is still struggling to get himself and his family ready for the winter.
they need to replace warm jackets, blankets, etc that they had to leave behind in their eight (!!) displacements thus far, plus mohammed is still helping his sister recover from a bullet wound and the whole family have been struggling to afford enough food already.
donations have slowed to a trickle these last months, but this campaign is a great opportunity for us to help keep 27 people safe and warm this winter.
please mind the exchange rates: 10 USD = 103 SEK. gofundme takes 3 SEK off each donation, so giving only 5 or 10 SEK means giving this family just pennies to live off.
donations are also eligible for an art print raffle if you'd like some bonus IWTV draculas for your wall collection :-)
Important note: Donation value: American Dollar to Swedish Krona
** 1$ … Ibrahim Iwais needs your support for GAZA : HELP IWAIS FAMILY TO R
Hi everyone. Mohammed Khalil (@ahmed0khalil) has asked me to share his story, and I’m writing on his behalf. Mohammed created the donation campaign for his little brother 6-year-old Ahmed, and he aims to raise funds to evacuate his family of 8. You can see in his blog how much he loves and worries for 6-year-old Ahmed. Mohammed is only 19 years old. This is not normal. He should have been in school, not begging for our attention to try and raise enough funds so that they can buy food, water, medicine, and a chance to evacuate to safety.
In Gaza, where the sounds of bombing blend with the cries of children, Mohammed and Ahmed's family experienced days they never imagined they would endure. Mohammed (19) and Ahmed (6) have four other siblings: Fathi, Aya, Anas and Abdullah. Aya (21) is a uni nursing student and Anas (15) is also a school student. Neither of them can study anymore with the current genocide. This war is especially hard on Fathi (23), who is blind and suffering from coronary artery disease, Abdullah (11) who is autistic and does not understand what is happening, and Ahmed (6), a small child who had barely started kindergarten before his education came to a halt.
The destruction that struck the area left them with no place to live. The sounds of explosions fill the horizon, and the homes that once sheltered them have become piles of rubble. They suddenly found themselves outside their home, homeless.
The bombing not only destroyed their home, but also severely injured Mohammed. Mohammed was sitting at the entrance of the school his family was sheltering in when three bombs were dropped in front of him. The bombs destroyed a residential tower in front of Mohammed. Dust filled the air and the resulting rubble and shrapnel fell on Mohammed, injuring him in the leg. Mohammed was so severely wounded that he could not walk, and he had to lie there, hurt and bleeding, for 2 hours before the Palestinian Red Crescent came and carried him to the hospital.
The bombing shattered the glass in the school Mohammed and his family was staying at, but thankfully the children sustained no serious injuries. Soon after, they were asked to evacuate the school immediately as there were news that the IOF were going to bomb the Abbas prison near it. And so even though Mohammed was wounded, he could not rest and wait for his leg to heal, but had to leave again with his family.
Now they are living in a small tent in a refugee camp. Mohammed told me that they had to bathe in polluted water and the place smelled of sewage and corpses. Camp life was difficult not only because of the scarcity of food, the infectious disease, and the polluted water, but also because of the psychological torture they endure. Looking at all the devastation, and how the world seems indifferent to their suffering, Mohammed told me that they, including young innocent 6-year-old Ahmed, had begun to lose hope for a better future.
Internet is unstable and often lacking in the refugee camp. Mohammed is using the precious time when Internet is available to tell me his story. I hope you will not turn away their calls for help. They urgently need donations to provide for shelter, food, and medicine, as well as to evacuate out of Gaza. Donations are coming in really slowly for Mohammed’s campaign, and I beg all of you, please, don't turn a blind eye to his story.
Mohammed’s campaign has been shared by 90-ghost and I’ve also been talking extensively with him. He is a very nice person and he just really wants to help his family survive. Please, please, help Mohammed evacuate himself, his 5 siblings and his parents! Little 6-year-old Ahmed does not deserve to live in fear of falling bombs every day, and neither does Mohammed and the rest of his family.
Really low funds! Only €1,185 raised of €50,000 target!!
Hello, among the hundreds of tragic stories, I am sharing my painful sto… Mohammed Khalil needs your support for Help Ahmed Khalil's family
Please share/reblog and donate to help a family of 8! These are children we are talking about, and my heart breaks for what they have to endure.
Please follow Mohammed and Ahmed on @ahmed0khalil to get updates on their situation!
I am happy to announce that we are already close to half of our goal, we have raised only €2050 out of a goal of €5000. The first goal will be to evacuate my sister Aya to complete her university education and study medicine in Egypt.
Our next focus is to raise funds to evacuate my older brother Fathi who is blind. We aim to reach our first goal within the next week and go to our next goal within this month.
I have divided the campaign into small goals to manage the process appropriately. Especially with the opening of the Rafah land crossing soon.
Your donation is not just money, it is life that returns to them after these difficult days.
Please help us by sharing the campaign and donating if you can. Every contribution brings us closer to ensuring safety and relief for my family.
Palestine fundraisers with easily-achievable goals
By "easily-achievable", I mean in the 50-60K range and below. Once again, drawing from my pinned list of fundraisers, which have all been vetted by Palestinians on Tumblr (check that post for the proof next to each family name). I'll update this post just like the main list and the "under 1000 donations" list. Many of these are extremely close to completing their funding. Let's help get them there!
As always, donate if you can, reblog if you can't!

The more hands on deck, the better.
