i'm genuinely at a loss for words as to what to say. we are on the second to last day of raising money for ammar's injection for the upcoming week, and we didn't even raise enough for the immune globulin injection last week, let alone anything else
the only reason ammar is still alive right now is because a doctor took pity on him and bought him the injection before we raised enough money. the extended delays made ammar have his first seizure.
israel has also been bombing the hospital again, photos on this post - and their planes + drones are still circling the hospital now, threatening to shoot people. ammar, samah, and mahmoud are all outside in the courtyard and will be immediately wounded if they do so
we need to raise $1471 by tuesday 4 pm at gazan time, which is roughly about 50 hours from now. this is for his food, as well as his injection, and the iv fluids. this is now the bare minimum required to be urgently raised
if he doesn't get this by tuesday, he would need an intensive injection that costs $6k+ total alongside the fact he would need extra medicine and this original injection too
i have nothing else to say. donate as little as $3 or $5 for him, or you'll be letting him die. this is extremely time sensitive.
These may be my last words or the last time I write a post about my family, so I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and does not support me with a single word and ignores me.
Days of complete silence have passed, and I'm terrified. I check the campaign link daily, but the amount hasn't changed. Not a single euro. It feels like the world has moved on, but my nephew's pain remains. His surgery is urgent, and so are his medical needs. We're close to closing the gap, but I can't bear this alone anymore. If you have ten or twenty dollars to spare, please help us today. If you don't, your contribution is our only lifeline to reach someone who can help. Please don't ignore someone desperately seeking a lifeline for my orphaned nephew.
We need 700 euros for my nephew's surgery. The operation is in a sensitive area of āāhis body and cannot be delayed. The surgery will determine his future ability to have children, and it must be done as soon as possible while he is still young, before he grows older and suffers greatly, and may also be unable to have children. Please don't leave us alone. Help us! Donate to us!
My nephew is his parents' only child. He lost his father in this genocide in the Gaza Strip and has suffered many traumas in this war. Please don't leave him alone. Donate for his operation. Please donate, donate! šš
If anything bad happens to me or I lose contact with you, please remember that I begged you to donate, even a small amount, or to share my post. I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and doesn't support me with a single word or a small donation, and ignores me.
Guys, someone donated 15 euros, but we still need 685 euros for my nephew's surgery amidst this genocide. I hope everyone who reads my message will donate. Please don't let us down. š
Today I will tell you what happened to me, hoping it will move you to help. I went to the vendor in front of my houseāa small stall where he sells things for children. I bought some things for my sick nephew to make him happy, and then I quickly went home. Behind me, the entire area was targeted, and many children were injured, some even killed. I was very close to death; I swear he was only a few meters away. Please, how long will we continue like this? Please donate. I almost died today, and no one would have saved my nephew. Please, we still need 675 euros so we can pay for his operation.
Now, just tell me, if I died or anything bad happened to me, would anyone help my nephew get his surgery? Just tell me. I'm begging you, with a very tired and exhausted heart. I haven't forgotten what happened to my mother and brother. Please, I can't bear any more loss. Please donate here. šš
We still need 600 euros for my nephew's surgery. Please, someone help us. Our goal is small compared to what others might think. We need 24 people. If each person donated 25 euros, I could get my nephew's surgery now. Please don't let us down. Donate. I haven't forgotten what happened yesterday; I almost died. Please save us and donate.

Israel's attacks have been relentless since the eve of Eid al-Adha on Tuesday, May 26. Just yesterday the head of anesthesia at Al-Yafa Medical Hospital was killed in an attack that injured three others. Over 50% of hospitals in Gaza are nonfunctional. Even when Palestinians survive attacks, treatment is limited and medical bills are expensive.
This targeting of healthcare workers and infrastructure is the reason my friend Fadel needs to raise funds for medical evacuation to a hospital outside of Gaza to surgically remove shrapnel that embedded in his body during the Israeli airstrike that destroyed his home while he was inside.
Fadel (@fadel-dani) is currently struggling to afford his hospital bills. He is being treated for severe anemia and malnutrition as a result of long term food insecurity and being unable to afford his monthly medication to treat his blood disorder. He suffers from frequent fainting and collapses unconscious, leaving his family terrified that he has died from starvation. Please help him.
Sudan is going through a genocide over the past three years, receive little to no attention from Western news outlets and will face total collapse if we do not take immediate action!
Please talk about Sudan! Boycott the UAE, donate to grassroots organizations and individual fundraisers, and last but not least, protest in the streets!
Consider helping Eman (@emiiii980). Dengue fever is spreading in her village and her family is infected! She needs funds for medication and treatments as soon as possible! Let's reach the 3.5K mark! $2,735 CAD has been raised. There is $765 left to go! You can also match me! I have given $10 CAD ($7 USD), but you are more than welcome to give any amount! [A friendly reminder to keep in mind with the currency exchange! $10 USD = $13 CAD!].
Her fundraiser has been shared by @/el-shab-hussein here.

The hunger strike that detainees at Delaney Hall Detention Center are maintaining despite violent repression from ICE is only one of several hunger strikes taking place in detention centers around the country.
Do you live near one of them? If you do, you could help spread resistance on the outside.

just found out that there is a sudanfunds website! like gazafunds, it is a compilation of funds for people facing genocide
edit: i've added the correct link to this version of the post. if at all possible, please try to reblog this version or direct back to it. for some reason, the original sudanfunds link i put is now defunct. the correct site is still called sudanfunds and is now back up, and that's what is now on this version of the post. hope this makes sense
"Human rights groups are increasingly struggling to verify tolls as Italy, Tunisia and Malta have quietly restricted information on migrant rescues and shipwrecks along the deadliest migration route in the world. The news barely makes headlines, in part because the lack of transparency prevents journalists from confirming reports.
āItās a strategy of silence,ā said Matteo Villa, a researcher focusing on migration and data at the Italian Institute for International Political Studies think tank."
The Associated Press repeatedly asked authorities in Tunisia, Italy and Malta why they arenāt sharing information related to migrant rescues at sea and what their policies are. Not one responded.
A heartbreaking reality awaits me. After the hospital closes, I may end up on the street, facing death with no treatment, no medicine, and nowhere to go.
critically stagnant spotlight campaigns for today (5/30.)
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: 22 days since last donation
ghazi mekawi: 18 days since last donation
nada muhaisen: 17 days since last donation
rania alneder: 10 days since last donation
campaigns in danger of becoming critically stagnant:
dr. isam: 4 days since last donation
yasmin's family: 4 days since last donation
ahmed atallah: 4 days since last donation
this list comprises the majority of my active gaza funds spotlight campaigns. i am actively spotlighting 13 campaigns. four of them are critically stagnant, and three are in danger of becoming critically stagnant.
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 donāt ignore this, you have the opportunity to throw someone a lifeline and do some real good. even if you donāt 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.

Maybe youāve seen posts like this beforeā¦ but for us, this is not just another post. This is our reality.
There is no real safety, no stable access to food or medicine, and every day the conditions get worse.
What makes this even harder is that the donations have become very limited, and this is putting us in even more devastating conditions.
My father is still fighting to survive. He depends on daily medication, and without it, his life is at serious risk. Right now, we are struggling to provide what he needs because we simply cannot afford it anymore.
Please donāt let this become just another post you scroll past.
