I'm writing these words with a heavy heart and a sense of shame…
It's not easy for a doctor and pharmacist who has dedicated their life to serving people to reach out and ask for help, but circumstances are harsher than any pride.
My pharmacy was completely destroyed by the war,
and my home wasn't spared either… and I no longer have any source of income to support myself and my family.
I was forced to reopen a simple pharmacy, a tent,
offering no protection from the winter cold or the rain,
and with the recent storms, the tent itself was ruined,
and I continue to work in unbearable conditions,
but only because I don't know how to stop or give up.
The situation is extremely difficult… and the need is dire,
and the hardest thing is the feeling of abandonment,
when you feel alone,
and that many of the people you stood by didn't stand by you in this time.
I'm not asking for luxury,
nor anything more than what's necessary.
I'm asking for a life of dignity and a chance to get back on my feet.
Whoever can help, even a little,
may God reward them on behalf of me and my family.
And whoever can't, please share this post.
Forgive me… The pain is immense,
and the need is greater than silence.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I suffer from severe depression. My right eye needs surgery, as the doctor told me. I take expensive psychiatric medications. Despite my difficult situation, I fulfill my duty to care for my elderly parents. Despite everything I'm going through, I haven't received a donation.
Because I am unable to eat, the doctor told me I will die. I am asking others to help my mother so that donations can reach her after my death, as she suffers from a herniated disc, high blood pressure, and type 1 diabetes. I am dying slowly now.😭😭😭💔
Please help Ibrahim and boost!
I can’t feel my hands or feet anymore. The cold is destroying us, the storms won’t stop, and the shelter gives no protection. My family is shaking, my mother is in pain there is no warmth, no safety.

Homeless single mom of 2 needs help in Gaza
Maha and her family previously had a verified GFM to pay for basic necessities like food, medical care, and some form of shelter. Horrifically, the person running their former GFM has stolen from them and hijacked their campaign.
Below is Maha’s new GFM. Her previous GFM was vetted by el-shab-hussein and nabulsi on their vetted campaign master list, on line 163.
Somehow, it gets worse
Maha’s 8-year-old daughter Joan, who we’ve explained has a history of gastric health problems, has fallen seriously ill with the viral gastroenteritis that is going around Gaza. She is severely dehydrated and needs to be on IV for fluids and to receive medicine.
Her treatment has accumulated €1000 EUR in costs, and the extension of her treatment for another week means Maha will owe an additional €1000 EUR. Maha’s husband is stranded in Egypt after accompanying his father for medical treatment. His expenses prevent him from being any help to his wife and children. You are their only hope.
We will start with the first €1000 EUR sum, the amount already owed to the hospital. We need to raise this URGENTLY, as the hospital will terminate Joan’s treatment if the outstanding balance is not paid soon.
Current: €108 out of €1108 EUR
Please note the exchange rate: €1 EUR = $1.16 usd
Imagine being sick - now imagine that without any comfort, shelter, or safety.
please donate. Your donation is the hope Maha and her children need. Your donation will help Joan heal from this horrific infection.
help a trans woman fix her car and keep her income!!
hi!! this is my girlfriend Sage and I! we’re a trans couple living in New York. Sage is wonderful and I love her and she’s presently in a bit of trouble.
Sage’s only source of income right now is DoorDash. her car has been driving a little bit funny for a while now, but today it started exhibiting what I’d consider to be just short of a catastrophic failure. it won’t reverse and struggles to shift gears. it also seems to be hesitating to start at all. from the sound of the symptoms, the transmission may be shot.
her financial situation is kind of dismal right now and she can’t work while her car is in this condition. her having safe housing depends on her having an income. I’m going to help with whatever costs I can myself, but I don’t have very much to spare right now so I’m trying to raise funds on her behalf. I don’t know how much repairs will cost yet, but anything you can spare will go towards getting her car back on the road and keeping her afloat while it isn’t drivable for work.
thank you so much for reading 🩷 payment links are below and any amount helps. if you don’t have anything to give, sharing and interacting with the post also means a lot.
if you are able to help and dm me I can like. send you stuff from shoots that I’m not able to post on this site or smth I just really don’t want this to mess her life up :(
We have spoken repeatedly about Nour’s situation before on this blog, and conditions have only gotten worse for her. To protect her from additional illness and to have a safe and warm space in which to treat her condition, her family needs funds to arrange shelter. In the long-term, they hope to rebuild their home. But for now, they just need to find someplace warm and out of the rain. Their current shelter is a shredded plastic “tent” currently being swamped by frigid winter rain:
The family has previously been vetted by el-shab-Hussein and nabulsi, they are listed as number 157 on the former’s vetted campaign master list. The campaign linked there is now inaccessible, as GFM shut it down without any prior warning or explanation. This is the new link:
Temporary goal progress: $988 out of $2,640 usd (updated 15 January)
🚨UPDATE:
Yesterday we explained that Nour's sister Noha sustained a foot injury due to their tent collapsing, and that initial treatment costs were $550 usd. Noha was able to see a doctor, who said that in addition to treating the pain with medication, she needs an operation to repair the broken bones that cannot be treated with a cast. In total this brings the cost of treatment to $1000 usd.
Noha is one of Nour's main caregivers. This injury is not only incapacitating and extremely painful for her, it also prevents her for taking care of Nour. Having a reliable caregiver is absolutely vital for Nour, and Noha’s own health is also important for its own sake, so we have temporarily altered our goal to focus on healing Noha’s foot. Once those costs are met, we will resume raising funds for better shelter.

support two balkan girls in danger
hi im yasha and as you may know ive recently been fucked over by life in a lot of ways and my other post has kind of died. im currently uninsured, suffer from catatonic episodes and an array of other health problems alongside having been cut off from my father's financial support and facing physical abuse at home bc of my episodes. i'm mostly trying to survive this month while paying for the medical appointments, and i need at least another 140€ for the electric bill. my girlfriend's family has been experiencing poverty for quite some time, and bills, taxes and debts have really piled up ever since her father's passing. the most realistic number for us to gather for her would be around 300€. i can offer simple doodles and sketches for donations, examples under cut or you can message me. we really need this. please help.

Need help! (I'm homeless)
Sorry if I haven't been around for awhile everyone, I've been having hectic times in my life which made it impossible to even be online for awhile (been homeless, depression, hospital, moving) etc etc and it's been taking a toll on me very badly!
I had to sleep outside in the rain but luckily the hospital let me stay in while we had our thunderstorm! I need money to help get a hotel and eat since the government shut down disrupt me from getting food stamps so I don't have ways to get food! And I had to leave a job due to mistreatment and no car. So it would help if I could get some support! It'll be thunderstorming this whole week and I would like enough until I hear from my mother about a car.
I MADE A GOFUNDME!!! PLEASE BOOST THIS AND READ THE UPDATE OF MY SITUATION.
Please help me survive being homeless. I need a car, get my belongings, and not sleep outside. I have three dogs that need their food. We need to get our suitcases from the hotel that kicked us out.
Guys, the killing has not stopped. Hunger is crushing us slowly, day after day. Gunfire surrounds us, and even tents and the last remains of our homes are not spared. There is no safety anywhere. What is happening in Gaza is not a tragedy or a conflict. It is genocide. We are not asking for sympathy. We are asking to survive. Please help us. Please save our lives.
✅Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is (#514)✅
Time is no longer on our side, and my mother’s condition is growing more critical with each passing day.
I cannot ignore the silence of those who see this human plea and choose to look away.
This is not exaggeration or emotional pressure. This is the truth confirmed by doctors. My mother is suffering from severe deterioration due to extreme vitamin deficiency and malnutrition, and her body is exhausted and can no longer withstand any further delay.
Urgent medical treatment and intervention are her only hope for survival. Every day without help brings us one step closer to losing her.
I stand beside her helplessly, watching her grow weaker before my eyes, with nothing left but hope that one compassionate soul will respond.
Your donation, or even sharing this, could save a life.
