Considera donar a Nour para que sobreviva en Gaza

Traducción al español (original de @noorelwan

Mi nombre es Nour, vivo en Gaza🍉, tengo 18 años. Alguna vez soné con convertirme en una doctor- para ayudar a la gente, para sanar, para traer esperanza. Estudié duro y creía que la educación era mi salida.

Pero la guerra tomó todo😭💔

En un solo momento, mi hogar fue destruido. Todo lo que amé- mis libros, mis recuerdos, mis sueños- fue enterrado en los escombros...💘

Ahora, vivo con mi familia en una carpa rota. No nos protege del frio ni del calor abrasador. No tenemos comida, ni agua limpia, ni seguridad- nada.

Cada noche dormimos sin saber lo que el mañana pueda traer: una oportunidad de vida... o mas dolor........💘

Mi madre es anciana y necesita cuidado. Solía soñar de ayudar a otros, pero ahora no puedo apoyar a mi propia familia.

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Me extiendo a cada corazón amable que lea esto: por favor, ayúdanos. Cualquier cantidad, cualquier apoyo, significa el mundo para nosotros

......🙏🇵🇸

Tu amabilidad podría ayudarnos a sobrevivir... y quizá, un día, regresaré a la escuela y perseguiré mi sueño otra vez.

🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️

Se nuestra voz en un mundo que nos ha olvidado. Se la luz en nuestra oscuridad.....

🙏

Help the Nabulsi Family Survive and Rebuild Their Lives

Today I’m making an appeal for the Nabulsi family, who are enduring unimaginable hardship in Gaza.

This is Mohammed Nabulsi, a father of three, sharing his family’s story:

“My family consists of five members: myself, my wife Heba (a teacher), and our three children. We lived a quiet, safe life in Khan Yunis before the war shattered everything. Our home was destroyed, and we’ve been forced into continuous displacement. Now, we live in a tent, exposed to the elements, epidemics, and the approaching winter.

Our children’s dreams have been crushed:

Nour, 19, was studying engineering at university. Her future has been torn apart.

Maram, 18, was in her final year of high school, dreaming of studying human medicine. Her hopes fade with each passing day.

Mahmoud, only 13, lost his education and his dream of becoming a professional footballer. Now, he carries water to earn $2 a day to help our family survive.

We have endured over 320 days of destruction, displacement, and constant fear. This war is unlike anything we’ve experienced before. We survived four previous wars and 17 military escalations, but this time, we are barely holding on. We appeal to your humanity for help.”

How You Can Help: The funds raised will be used as a survival fund to provide the Nabulsi family with food, medicine, and basic necessities while the borders remain closed. Once evacuation becomes possible, the funds will also support their relocation and help the children continue their studies abroad.

This campaign is supported by @beesandwatermelons, a global volunteer collective that rigorously vets and verifies all its campaigns.

100% of the funds raised will go directly to the Nabulsi family.

Donate: Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a difference.

Follow: Stay connected with the family’s journey on Instagram @nabulsi_family1.

Share: Amplify their story by reblogging this post and encouraging others to help.

Donate here.

Let’s come together to help the Nabulsi family survive, evacuate, and rebuild their lives. Your kindness can restore hope and provide a lifeline in their darkest hour.

My dear friend, 🌹

Welcome, I hope you are well. 🙏

I am writing to kindly ask for your support in reblogging my pinned post on my page❤🙏.

My name is Hilda Nasr from Gaza, and I am married and also pregnant with my first child. I may lose my child due to extreme hunger and the lack of medicine.😭😭

The situation is very dangerous in Gaza

In short, there are no minimum necessities for human life here. The situation is catastrophic and devastates humanity. Famine is intensifying, poverty is intensifying, goods are running out, and the danger of bombing is all around us.😟

I appeal to you and seek your help to share our story and our suffering through your pages, and to provide us with support and concern.🙏

Thank you very much.

How to help Ukrainians now

Simplified and adapted

How to help Ukrainians nowSimplified and adapted

Timothy Snyder

A number of you have written to me asking for this message to be affirmed, updated, and simplified.  Eleven days in to the war, a few things have changed.

The Russian war effort, following a pattern we know from Chechnya and Syria, has shifted to encircling cities and killing civilians.  The number of Ukrainian refugees fleeing Russian atrocity has reached 1.5 million.  About a million Ukrainian refugees have already arrived in Poland in just ten days.  This is a stunning number. So some of the organizations I mention will now be Polish.

The horror that Russian force is now causing in Ukraine has all but vanished from Russian media.  Independent media has been almost completely shut down in Russia.  That blackout will also affect what I suggest.

One thing has been constant.  Since I first sent out a list of charities, Ukrainian citizens have proven their willingness to sacrifice: on the battlefield, defending their country from an unjustifiable war, but also in civil society, as volunteers.  When I speak to my friends and colleagues in Ukraine, this is what strikes me: everyone, despite the shelling and the bombs, is doing something.  But they could use our help.

Ukraine is not a wealthy country.  GDP per capita in the United States is about $63,000.  In Ukraine it is about $4000.  And now add to that the destruction of roads, airports, homes, hospitals, schools, all in these horrible last few days.  If you can give a little, you can make a difference.  And some of you can give more than a little.  Please do.  As always, I will give a range of options, since people have different values. Here is a new list:

1.  General humanitarian aid to Ukrainians can be arranged by Razom, which can take a credit card and give you a tax deductions.  They are a flexible group of volunteers and will cooperate with other partners in the US and in Poland and Ukraine.  Donate to Razom here.

2.  A European group with a good reputation and a good partner in Ukraine (Vostok SOS) is Liberico.  You can easily donate to Liberico by credit card.  Mark "Ukraine" as the purpose of your donation.

3.  In Poland the flood of refugees must be handled by countless small organizations.  One of the very best is the Borderland Foundation, whose mission for decades has been cross-border cultural understanding.  These are people I know well and trust.  They have mobilized to take Ukrainian refugees and to build a network across Poland.  You cannot donate to them with a card, but you can donate in dollars using their bank account.  This is the information you need:

IBAN: PL53124058911787001042509362; SWIFT: PKOPPLPW; Bank PKO SA SUWAŁKI. The beneficiary is Fundacja Pogranicze.

4.  The largest charity in Poland is Caritas, a branch of the larger Catholic organization under the same name.  It is acting to support refugees on a large scale.  Again, you would need to make a bank transfer, but it is not difficult.  You just go online with your bank.

IBAN: PL57 1160 2202 0000 0000 6663 1212; SWIFT: BIGBPLPWXXX; Bank Millennium, ul. Stanisława Żaryna 2A, 02-593 Warszawa; Purpose: Ukraine

5.  More and more of you seem to be interested in helping the Ukrainian armed forces.  An anonymous American reportedly just gave one million dollars.  I know of three three legitimate ways to do this.

The organization Come Back Alive concentrates on protective gear and other equipment for soldiers.  You can transfer money or cryptocurrency using the information here.

Army SOS includes medical gear but also tilts towards everything a soldier might need.  You can donate in cryptocurrency following this link or make a bank transfer in dollars via

IBAN: UA203052990000026003016809842;  SWIFT: PBANUA2XXXX; Bank: JSC CB "PRIVATBANK

You can now contribute directly to the Ukrainian armed forces using a credit card.  If you prefer a bank transfer that information is here.

6.  Now that independent media in Russia has been almost entirely silenced, the next best thing in Meduza, which is based in Riga, Latvia.  They have excellent commentators and reporters, and you can sign up for their bulletin.  They cannot really advertise, since in Russia they are treated as a "foreign agent," so they depend upon donations.  They are one of the few ways the truth about Ukraine can reach Russians.  Donate to Meduza here.

7.  Ukrainian reporters are our main source of information on this war, directly or indirectly.  This fundraiser has good partners.

As soon as I post this I will make my own round of donations for the day.  I hope you will join me.
