A cry for help from Gaza
My name is Salem, I am 26 years old. I am married to Hadeel, she is 25 years old, and we have two beautiful children: Laila (5 years old) and Bakr (five months old). We live in the northern part of Gaza.
Laila and Bakr are my heartbeat, the light of my life, and my everything.
The horrific story of the recent war in Gaza
Since the beginning of the last war in Gaza, our home has been completely destroyed, forcing us to be displaced. We had to move more than 10 times to find safety. During this harrowing journey, we faced extreme hunger and malnutrition that almost claimed the lives of me and my children. In addition, we have been exposed to many serious infectious diseases and epidemics.
Before: This is our homeland, our dream, and our promising future.
Unbearable hardships
Every day I have to travel long distances just to get water, and stand in lines for hours to get food. My children's mental health deteriorated due to the war, their education was interrupted, and they suffered from catastrophic hunger that almost claimed their lives.
After: This is our house, built with our sweat and effort, and it was completely destroyed.
The right to a peaceful life
My children deserve to live a peaceful life free of fear and anxiety. I dream of your help to support my family and escape this genocide. Your help means the world to me and my children.
The cost of arranging travel for an adult outside Gaza currently varies
Between $5,000 and $7,000, and $2,500 for each child, in addition to a cost of living of $500 per month.
How can you help?
Your donations can be a beacon of hope for us. Every dollar can help save my children's lives and give them a chance to live in peace. Your prayers for us to overcome this ordeal and lift the siege are greatly needed
Laila: My beloved, the closest to my heart, and my little one.
Bakr: My child who came during this horrific war.
Donate now and help us get to safety
May God reward you greatly for your generosity.
Background on the Gaza war
The war in Gaza has left hundreds of thousands of victims, destroyed infrastructure, and left many homeless. The humanitarian situation in the region has reached critical levels, with severe shortages of basic necessities such as food, water and health care. Children are the most affected, as they have lost their sense of security, education and normal life.
Your support is our hope
Your donation is the light that can guide us towards a better future. Don't miss the chance to be part of a story that saves a family suffering from unimaginable hardships.
Donate now and make hope possible
Thank you for your support and kindness.
My gratitude
Salem and family

Hey guys! While I'm still on hiatus waiting for my physical health to improve, I decided to schedule some posts to remind you all to donate to my lovely friends Mohammed Ayesh and Mohammed El-Shaer. Very often I've been asked here if there was any way to send me money or gifts. If you are one of those people and you have extra to give this holiday season, please don't hesitate to donate to my friends' survival funds! Mohammed Ayesh in particular has been the driving force of our fundraising efforts, and without his work we couldn't have helped hundreds of the Palestinian families on our list!
May we see the liberation of Ghazzah and Palestine in this coming year!

hey if y’all are gonna make my stupid posts about caprisuns or kmart or being colorblind blow up, i’d really appreciate it if you could reblog/donate to a post that actually goes toward a good cause.
This is Vee. It would be great if anyone could toss her some money so she can afford to go on estrogen. She doesn’t have any other means of income and doesn’t currently have a good support system in getting the gender-affirming treatment she needs.
She lives in El Paso, one of the worst cities in the US for COVID rn, where everything is shut down due to the pandemic. It’s hard enough getting a job as a transfem person and this has made it impossible.
She was someone i knew in high school and she could really use you guys’ help. She doesn’t have a tumblr, but she had this to say:
“Hey there! I'm accepting donations to raise money for my HRT :)
if you feel generous I would be glad to receive donations, if not a share is much appreciated!

If anyone wants to follow her on Twitter, here it is:

Please spread the word and have a great day! :-)
(Edit as of October 30th, 2020!)
Vee has set her HRT donation goal to $2,000! This is so she can afford about a year of HRT while she looks for a job in the meantime!
She has received ten dollars so far! Thank you!
SO FAR, WE ARE AT $10/$2,000!
Please keep this post going! Thanks so much for the support so far!

I'm writing to you as a last resort🚨
after exhausting all my options. I am a computer engineer who was on the verge of graduating from university after tremendous effort. My life and the lives of my family have been completely destroyed as if they never existed.
(This is me before the war😄)
(This is what I became in war 💔)
We were a family of five living in a two-story home, a place filled with warmth and laughter. But now, that home stands in ruins, destroyed in the war. The life we built there, all our belongings and memories, are gone. We are now left homeless, without any possessions, and with no means to provide for ourselves.
(This is me and my family before the war when our smiles had meaning🤗)
I am a university student, so close to graduating. I’ve worked tirelessly for years to reach this point, but now my dreams feel unattainable. The devastation of war has not only obliterated our home but also my aspirations for a bright future. We have no steady income or resources, and finding work is nearly impossible in these dire circumstances.
(This is me in college when I was working on my college projects👨💻)
Winter is here, bringing with it bitter cold and relentless rain. Without a solid roof over our heads, water seeps into our temporary shelter, chilling us to the bone. We have nothing to keep us warm or dry, as we left our home with nothing but the clothes on our backs in a frantic escape from the bombs. There was no time to gather our belongings or think of anything beyond survival.
(This is what we have left of our two-story house 💔)
Every day is a battle, not just for warmth but for food as well. We often go to bed hungry, unsure of where our next meal will come from. The simple act of providing for ourselves has become an overwhelming challenge. We live with the hope that someone will hear our story and extend a helping hand, enabling us to rebuild our lives, stay warm, and continue facing the immense losses we have endured.
(This is where we live now, a piece of nylon around us that does not protect from rain, cold or bullets.💔 )
My mother is sick and suffers from multiple chronic diseases, including high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and nerves, and she needs continuous treatment. She also suffers from back and neck discs that require surgical intervention. Due to the harsh conditions we live in, we lack the necessary capabilities to provide the necessary medications and treatments for her, and we live in constant fear for her health and life.
(This is the amount of medicine my mother takes to be able to bear the pain and keep up with life💊💔)
Your donation of $50 will help me overcome the difficult situation we are living in, achieve my dream of graduating, and provide the necessary treatment and surgeries for my mother. Please be a reason for her recovery.
