From the heart of Gaza: the story of the steadfastness of a family.
I am Amer, a Palestinian man from Gaza. I live with my wife and four children in indescribable conditions. Despite all this suffering, hope remains in our hearts.
My wife, my children, and I live in a single small tent. We lack the most basic necessities, and our daily lives are full of challenges: power outages, water shortages, and difficulty in securing food and medicine.
The situation in Gaza is tragic, and we face relentless conflict every single day. But I believe that strength lies in unity, and that support, however small, can transform our family's life. I launched this campaign as a plea for hope and an appeal for help to overcome this hardship. All we ask is for the opportunity to live with dignity for my children and my family.
Hello, my name is Amer Ahmed. I am 33 years old. My family and I live in Gaza. Our life was perfect before the war, but fate decreed that wa
If you hear our story, please share it and offer your support, whether through prayer, a kind word, or any other means. Together, we can make Gaza a better place.
I'm Yasserβ¦ a simple man who lost everything π. I'm 27 years old, from northern Gaza π΅πΈ.
My house was destroyed at the beginning of the war. We live in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood in eastern Gaza ποΈ. I lost my job, and I was injured during the war and am still suffering π₯π€β¦ Now I'm fighting just to keep my family alive.
π§ My brother has a mental disability, can't work, and has children of his own.
π€° My wife is pregnant and needs care amidst a complete lack of basic necessities. She needs so much, the simplest of which is clothing.
π§π§ My children are Salwa and Massa. My little Massa was born during the height of the war. We were living in my sister's house when my wife went into labor. We were trapped and couldn't leave the house because of the intense shelling all around us. Miraculously, by the grace of God, my wife gave birth to Massa at home.
When we finally managed to leave a week later, the occupation forces demolished my sister's house.
Now we live in tents inside Gaza, destitute. The tents offer no protection from the heat or the winter. In the winter, we suffered greatly, and in the summer, the children developed skin diseases from the extreme heat.
There is no incomeβ¦ no workβ¦ and prices are sky-high. π₯
We are living through harsh days, caught between hunger and fear. We have nothing but hope in God and in your hearts. π I never imagined I would have to ask for help, but todayβ¦ I sincerely reach out to you:
Please extend a helping hand π Any amount, even a small one, can provide food, medicine, and warm clothes for my children.
π We truly need any help, even the smallestβ¦ It could mean a meal, medicine, or even just hope for life.
π€ Don't leave us aloneβ¦ Your support is our lifeline.
π Please, from a broken heartβ¦ Any help, even a small one, could make a huge difference in our lives and help us to keep going and survive.
May God reward you all. Your support will be a light in our lives π€
Hello
These are my children. One of them was born during the war inside our home because we couldnβt go to the hospital due to the intensity of the war we were living through at that time. Until now, the suffering continues, with shortages of food, medicine, and clothing. I ask you for your prayers and support.
I am Yasmeen from Gaza. I am living with my children in very difficult circumstances. I have created a new donation campaign, and I hope you can help me, even with a small amount, to support my family. π
We hope to receive support that can help us overcome these circumstances and live safely and with dignity. ποΈ I hope my message reaches you and that you are able to help us, even a little. πβ€οΈ
My name is Tasneem, and I'm from Gaza, Palestine π΅πΈ.
My father was martyred in the war π, and our house was destroyed. Now, my family of seven and I live in a small tent. I graduated from high school with a 93% average π and was accepted to university, but I had to stop studying because I couldn't afford the tuition fees.
Now we live without shelter or any source of income. I even lost my link, and unfortunately, I was scammed. Please, if anyone can create a link for me, I would be very grateful.
My mother is doing her best to support us, and I'm trying to hold on to hope despite the difficult circumstances.
Any support from you will help me complete my studies and support my family. π
Thank you for your kindness and concern β¨

My name is Mohammed, I live in Gaza City and I am 19 years old. I have lived through the full horrors of war β hunger, displacement, fear, relentless bombings, destruction, and so many other painful experiences π₯Ήπ.I never created a donation link before, and I havenβt received any kind of help throughout this devastating war π₯²π.
I was so happy when the ceasefire was announced, and I dreamed of starting a small shop to earn a living. But sadly, the war returned β even more violent and destructive than before π.Our area has now been declared a dangerous combat zone, and we lost our home β the only shelter we had π.
Worst of all, my father was seriously injured: he tragically lost one of his hands and an eye, and he is now completely unable to work or support our family π₯²π.
Prices have skyrocketed, and we have no source of income. Iβm launching this donation campaign now with a broken heart but a little hope π₯².
Please, for the sake of humanity and for the sake of my family, consider making a donation to help us survive ππ.
I just created the donation link, hoping that someone out there might lend a helping hand.

Hi, I'm Raven, and I'm running this campaign on behalf of my friend Ayoush. Any money raised will go to her in full. Please note the campaig
Hello my friends, I will always be grateful for your support, but Tumblr deleted my main account and I honestly do not know why.The truth is that I have no source of income and no stable way to survive. I urgently need your help.
Everything here has become extremely expensive, and the war has never truly stopped. Every moment, every day, and every night, there are more martyrs and more rising prices.
I truly need your support. Even if you cannot donate, please at least share and support my campaign. And if you are able to help, even a small donation like $15 can make a difference for me.
So any donation or contribution you make will help me buy basic living necessities and at least provide simple crochet supplies so I can continue making and selling my work to earn some money.I am only trying to provide food, water, and the most basic crochet tools β just the essential things.
Please try to support me.
And these are some of the crochet pieces I have made recently.
I looked through the notes and noticed no one had debunked this scam, so I thought I'd do it:
I reverse image searched the selfie, which brought me to this twitter of an Iranian woman, abandoned in 2020. This twitter marks this woman's location in Tehran, Iran. I then zoomed in on the photos with the business card. The only thing I could accurately make out without question was the phone number, which doesn't have a country code, so I just for shits and giggles looked it up with Iran's code. That showed me that this phone number is registered to someone in Tehran, Iran. Most likely, the woman whose image was stolen.
This woman is not Ayoush from Gaza. This is a scam. Stop reblogging it.
Lets look at this person's list of 'evidence', compile them, and address them one by one.
Aya's photo was stolen from an account belonging to this Twitter account which is verifiably located in Iran.
Aya's phone number is registered under a Tehran, Iran area code.
Aya's business cards have Persian on them instead of Arabic.
Let's start with the first claim then.
This is the account linked:
Do note that that individual hasn't posted any photos of their own, besides their profile picture. How would Aya have sourced her photos from this woman who has never posted on X?
Her profile picture does not resemble Aya's photos either. Here's a side by side. You cannot even claim these are the same woman, and if you struggle with face blindness, please note the different mole patterns on the women's faces, their eyebrows and eyeshapes are different, etc...
Left is random Iranian woman, right is Aya, a photo taken and posted by her.
Aya's photos have been consistent as well. This is her with her family in front of the rubble of their home in Ghazzah. And she is identifiably the same woman. It's the first photo in her Chuffed fundraiser for her family. This is clearly not Tehran now is it?
2. The phone number on the business card being a Tehran area code number is a baffling statement to make considering it's verifiably a Palestinian-registered mobile phone number beginning in 56. There's also likely an international number that comes before it that's omitted from the business card (either 972 or 970 which are the 'area codes' although that's not the name), one that is not necessary to list for people who are also Palestinian as they would know it and know what to dial (likely 970 since she writes it as 056) before beginning the phone number that starts with 56, a Palestinian mobile phone registration number that matches up with Aya's phone number beginning in 056 followed by 7 digits, the standard for Palestinian mobile phones.
This phone number of hers is in line with Palestinian mobile phone numbers. There are no Iranian mobile phone service providers who use this same phone number structure.
What this means is that individual was lying about finding the phone number in Iran. It's not like they provided proof anyway!
3. And onto their final point, well most of the card is illegible because the font is too thin to distinguish from this distance / blurriness (refer to the previous business card photo), but the bottom line literally says "Alaa's crochets" in Arabic. It's not Persian. It's Arabic. How did this person decide the illegibly blurry writing that even I and others can't read as native Arabic speakers is actually 'Persian'? (You know, it's actually called Farsi :) )
So if they're wrong about all of this, why are they so confident in their claims?
This person isn't confident in their claims, and is not trying to help anyone.
They lied about reading Farsi or Arabic, they lied about the phone lookup, they lied about the reverse Google image lookup. And look at that! We just verified their claims ourselves above ^^^
The reality is they're just hellbent on trying to prove that verified fundraisers who belong to Ghazzawi individuals and their families, their fucking lifelines, are actually scams, so they can ignore them and not have to think about the suffering of brown people on this planet because it makes them uncomfortable. And Westerners would rather kill brown people by attempting to cut off their lifelines in a genocide than even think about helping them.
You people are vile, dishonest, disgusting pieces of shit.

Over the past few days, I asked for your help to cover Eid expenses and to buy medication for my parents. Yesterday, we experienced a very nearby airstrike that caused significant damage, including damage to our tent.
We are living with fear every moment. Every minute feels uncertain, and the war has never truly ended. The situation continues to worsen, and I could lose my life at any moment.Please do not forget my family and loved ones. Any support you can provide, even to help us repair the damage, would mean so much to us. We urgently need your help.These are some photos showing the damage and the area that was bombed. Please support and help us in any way you can. We need everything.ππ

My name is Mahmoud. I live in Gaza with my family, and we are going through a very difficult financial situation. I tried to create a donation link for my family, but I couldn't find someone to help organize and manage the campaign π₯ΊπSo my friend Ahmed decided to support me by sharing his own familyβs donation link, and we agreed to split the donations between our two families.
Right now, we have almost no food, and the cost of living has become unbearable due to the siege, soaring prices, and the closure of all crossings.Everything has doubled in price in an unimaginable way π₯²π₯Ί
We might be forced to flee to southern Gaza after the announcement of a full invasion of Gaza City π
The bombing and destruction never stop β not for a single moment. There is no longer any real life in Gaza. We are just struggling to survive, trying to secure the bare minimum: water and food.
Winter is coming, and we have no winter clothing after our home was destroyed and we were displaced multiple times ππ₯²Please, we urgently need financial help to buy food and store some in case the situation worsens.
This is our donation link.
Please remember: donations are shared between two families. So, for the sake of God, help us, my friend. Save our children, my younger siblings, my parents, and even my older siblings β we are all homeless and hungry π₯Ίπ₯²π

Hello friends, I thank you very much for your continuous support, but right now I am in urgent need of you and your help. We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, which requires a lot of expenses, and there has been a significant rise in prices.
I also need to pursue my dream after losing everything. I need your support greatlyβI need more than $1,500 to pay my university fees so I can receive my certificate and apply for scholarships.
You can find the images below the post.
Therefore, I am in great need of your help. I support my family, and at the same time, I am trying to achieve myself and continue my education.
What if the children go to schools unafraid of tear gas and bullets?
What if the birds come back, and the bees are healed, and every species moves from endangered, to threatened, to thriving?
What if the rainforest ADVANCES?
What if every parking lot had solar panels? What if every structure had solar panels? What if we built climbing gyms and terraced gardens in the skeletons of old coal power plants?
What if you baked your neighbor bread, and they shared their home-grown blackberries?
What if every person who needed a home, had one? What if every person who needed healing was healed?
What if every body was treasured for what it was, not what it should be?
What if every trans child's parents attended their graduation, their wedding, their new-name-day?
What if every warehouse became a closed-circle repair station? Goods flowing out, and back, and out again? What if landfills started to SHRINK?
What if the water and air were clean? What if there was enough public transit that the cars dwindled, leaving the streets safe for kids on bikes, evening deer, midnight cats and foxes?
im asking you to stay here. i cannot tell you why, i dont have any other reason except i want to see you here. i want to see you as happy as you can be. please, do what you can to stay. to find happiness wherever you can. i know that it is selfish of my to ask this. but iβm asking you anyway. take care of yourself. if not for yourself, then for me

Iβm sorry if I bothered you earlier, but I kindly ask you to donate if you can, even a small amount β $30 is enough for a full dayβs meal. If you cannot donate, please share my campaign so our voices reach as many people as possible. Every bit of support is a new ray of hope ππΈ
I don't like asking for help, but today I truly need to.
It's been a while since our campaign received any support, and I would be lying if I said that doesn't scare me π
Behind this fundraiser is a family still trying to rebuild their life, a student still trying to hold onto his education, and people who are doing their best not to lose hope.
When donations stop, our struggles don't stop with them. The worries, responsibilities, and uncertainty are still here every single day.
So if you've been following our story, if you've ever felt sympathy for what we're going through, please consider helping us today. Even a small donation can make a real difference, and even sharing our campaign could help us reach someone willing to support.
Thank you to everyone who has stood beside us so far. Your kindness means more than words can express π€π

Hello friends πThank you all for your continued support. I am very sorry to tell you that we recently experienced heavy shelling near us.
As a result, we lost everything. My handmade crochet work was burned and destroyed, and now I have to raise money again to buy the basic supplies I need, including crochet hooks, yarn, and threads.
The prices have become extremely high. Right now, I need only $200 to purchase the essential materials and start creating new pieces again.
You can see my previous work on my crochet Instagram page, and you are welcome to message me there if you would like.click here
Please support me in any way you can. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing my story and talking about it with others.
Even $15β$20 could make a real difference in my life.
Thank you for your kindness and support. β€οΈ

These are some of my previous handmade creations. I miss being able to make pieces like these again.
Today, I am honored to speak about a brave mother, Enas, who lost her husband during the war. Despite this unbearable pain, she has remained strong, fighting every single day for her orphaned children. She has carried grief, fear, hunger, and responsibility all alone, while trying the impossible just to provide them with food, warmth, and a sense of safety they have lost.
Enas is not just a sad story, but a powerful example of a mother who is broken inside yet still standing for the sake of her children. May God have mercy on her husband, protect her children, heal her heart, and send her the help and relief she desperately needs.
Please consider donating to support her during this painful time. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a real difference in the life of this mother and her orphaned children.

I am helping a mother from Gaza share her campaign because she does not know how to post online herself, and her internet access is very limited.
I am a mother living in Gaza, trying to protect my little baby in the middle of extremely difficult conditions.
She is raising a small baby who was born during the war, and they are living through extremely difficult conditions. Food, medicine, milk, diapers, and basic necessities are very hard to afford.
Iβm doing my best to help her voice reach more people and support her family in any way I can. Any donation, no matter how small, can truly help them survive and care for their baby.
If you cannot donate, please consider sharing her story. Thank you for your kindness and support π€π΅πΈ
