Deadline 25 January

Subject: Collecting money to pay the rent of the house

Current process:

USD 3,140 / $4,640

Vatted by @fairuzfan

We are so grateful to everyone who supported us while my sister was in the hospital. Thanks to your prayers and kindness, she is finally home and slowly getting better.🙏💗

But now, we are facing a desperate situation. Our landlord has given us only two weeks to pay the rent of $1,500 or we will have nowhere to go. The weather is bitterly cold, my elderly parents cannot withstand it, and my sister is still too weak to face any stress.😔💔

We don't know what else to do, and we are turning to you with hope in our hearts. Every single donation, no matter how small, will help us keep a roof over our heads and give my family safety and warmth. Please, help us today , your support can save us from the streets and give us hope in this very difficult time.🙏😔💔

Every day we wake up to the same reality: destroyed homes, no safety, no stability, and needs that keep growing. People think the pain paused… but for us, it never did.

Even with a so-called “ceasefire,” nothing has really stopped. The explosions, the drones, the fear — the violations never ended. And our suffering definitely didn’t.

Your support is the only reason many of us manage to keep going.

Your donation 🙏🙏 — no matter how small — can mean medicine, food, warmth, and a little bit of dignity in a life that’s been stripped of everything.

Please, stand with us. Don’t let this struggle fade from the world’s attention.

We still desperately need you to get back on our feet.

Gaza is not okay. The bombing hasn’t stopped, and hunger comes before everything.

My family is like thousands of others: no electricity, no clean water, and no adequate medicine.

My mother needs a new heart device. My father survived a stroke and needs urgent treatment. My brother is injured. I’m fighting illness again.

We’re trying to survive that’s all. If you can’t donate, please reblog. 💳 Donate here ➡️ PayPalVerified fundraiser

i keep seeing posts that are like "if you're disabled and don't have support you just have to Try and Do It Anyway" and then i see other posts that are like "i have support bc i literally will die without it" but i am always thinking about the people who had no support, "tried," and died of abuse/neglect/sickness/injury because they really Couldn't but didn't get any help anyway. we have lost so many to this.

Israeli attacks and advances. Bombing in the north, drones in operations, tanks crossing the Green Line. 16,000 people need medical attention. More than a thousand have already died without assistance. The media's silence is intended to conceal the truth.

Tel Aviv has resumed the military operations that were in place before the ceasefire: airstrikes and bulldozing. The Rafah crossing remains closed, despite promises.

Among all these afflicted families, there is one family clinging to hope… the family of my friend Abdul Rahman, who are waiting for the Rafah crossing to open so his mother, who is battling cancer, can travel for treatment.Time is not on their side, and their suffering intensifies every day. Your donation could save a mother's life; it could be the difference between life and death.This family is one of thousands in need, but today they are appealing to you on humanitarian grounds…

Please, help in any way you can and share this appeal

Everyone is still ignoring my plea… I haven't received any donations for two days, and the last donation was only 7 euros.

Today, the army resumed its attacks in the Gaza Strip, and many more people have been killed. Now we are living through truly terrifying moments after the army threatened to bomb a house very close to ours.We are terrified and don't know where to go or how to survive.Amidst all this, my mother, who has cancer, is very ill and needs treatment, and I am helpless to help her alone.

Jesus Christ, my friend Abdul Rahman has told me that a woman's house nearby where he's staying was targeted and bombed just now. My god... I'm glad my friend is alive, but I dearly hope nobody has been seriously harmed in the aftermath, including that poor woman.... Nobody should be living like this, constantly in fear and trying to survive a genocide

Please donate if you can

Right now, right now, right now, an attack is shaking the place! Oh God, I'm scared. So far, there are over 11 martyrs and the world is still silent. Please, I don't want to die. Please help me! 😭💔

Please share and donate!

urgent, this is urgent. People are dying right now and abduls life is at risk. You have to donate now if you actually want to save a life.

My mother has cancer and needs treatment on Saturday and to travel outside Gaza. At the same time, we are living under relentless bombardment that didn't stop all night, and more than 14 people were killed yesterday.

Today, even the rain didn't spare us… the rain soaked our tent, and we have no real shelter.Are you happy with what we're going through? Has this pain become normal?I'm not asking for the impossible, I'm just asking to survive.

Oh, my God, it feels like the first days of the war all over again. Bombing everywhere in Gaza right now. It you scroll past this without sharing, please question your humanity.

I just got a call from my mother while I’m lying in a hospital bed. She was screaming as my younger siblings cried in terror. The bombing was very close, and they survived by a miracle. Please donate to help evacuate my family and keep them alive.

Today, my little sister Ronza is weakening right before my eyes; her blood level is 8.2, and she is suffering from malnutrition because I am unable to provide the necessary treatment and food. I will not forgive being ignored—not even without a share.

Her exhaustion worsens day by day, her body grows weaker, and treatment feels unreachable. Please donate to provide medicine and therapeutic nutrition and to save this child.

Please don’t scroll past us in this critical moment; even a small share or donation can ease the suffering and give Ronza another chance at life.

His pain worsens daily, and treatment is unreachable; please donate to buy medicine, stop infection, and save child.

Please don’t scroll past us in this critical moment; even a small share or donation could ease suffering and give Qais another chance.

🚨This cold is killing us slowly🥹

I warned before the storm came,

I wrote out of fear of what I felt was coming,

but the wind was stronger than we were.

Our tent was torn away, and everything we owned was flooded.

Today we are without shelter, without blankets,

and illness is worsening for me and my children with every cold night.

The danger is extremely high,

and every day without warmth means the sickness grows worse.

We urgently need blankets.

The situation can no longer wait.

Please donate now, or share this post 🙏

sharing could save a life.

⚠️ Critical notice: In two days, a very severe storm is expected to arrive,We are living in real fear with no shelter and no blankets, We urgently ask for help before it arrives and before it is too late.

What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the other 2 million people to die, including me, my family, and everyone I love?

Is there no one on this planet who can stop the Zionist army? Is there no one to speak out? Is there no one to help the two million people dying in all sorts of ways before everyone's eyes? Imagine yourself in my place, your country, and your family being killed, starved, and besieged by this land-stealing state. What would you do if you were in my place?

I don't blame one person; I blame the entire world. I will not forgive anyone who failed to help us, whether by speaking out for justice, supporting us, or in any other way. Her life doesn't belong to anyone. We deserve to live like the rest of the world's people, and Israel and America have no right to control us whatsoever.

I am one of two million people struggling to survive this genocide, along with my loved ones, and to live a peaceful life. Therefore, I implore you to help me. Donate without hesitation; your donation will help me more than you can imagine. I live in rented accommodation, and the monthly rent is very high, not to mention the cost of food and drink. Please, give me a donation that will help me achieve my dream. Please help me.

Nader is a young man in the prime of his life. He has endured unbearable conditions in Gaza. Please help him and donate to his cause. Forgo the cost of his lunch today and donate to Nader. Your donations will greatly help him and his family survive. Please donate.

Even sharing helps. Please, my friend, stand by me. I need your donations to help my family and buy medicine for my father. He has cancer and is suffering greatly. He needs urgent surgeries. Please help us. Donate, please. We want to live. Please donate.

israel has violated the "ceasefire" over 1000 times - the situation is still incredible volatile and these families still need our support. please help out if you can

I am mentally drained by this harsh reality.

We try to endure, but exhaustion builds, and silence hurts more than pain.

We are human beings facing difficult circumstances; please hear our voices.

Your humanity makes a difference.

A simple share or small support can give us hope

My kind-hearted friends, we live through your compassion.🤍 🙏🏻

This is not a symbol of hate. This is a child who has run out of words like our children here.

When a child in Gaza raises his middle finger, it isn’t rudeness or rebellion. It’s a breaking point. A hungry child, cold, living in a tent that cannot protect him from rain or fear. That gesture is the last thing left when there is no voice left in the chest.

People will argue about politics, but our children here don’t know them.

They know the cold that wakes them at night, the long wait for food, the faces that disappear and never return. This child is not an isolated case he is the image of every child here, carrying the same silent question in their eyes: why were we left alone?

Please, we only need 1000 euros to reach our goal. Please donate, help us, or at least share.

Why do I have to watch everything around me fall apart? My future, my life, my education, my home, my time, my loved ones, my friends— everything is being erased before my eyes.

One war was enough to steal everything from me. It didn’t even leave me a reason to understand why I’m still trying.

If what you’re reading now touched your heart, please help me in any way you can— with a share, a word, or even the smallest support. It could make a real difference in a life that has so little left.

Time is slipping away, and we are collapsing. $25 from 10 people can provide medicine, a tent, and food. Please don’t pass by without donating.

Please donate now!

His mother is extremely sick and needs urgent medical attention!

They need funds for necessities like warm nutritional food, clean water, proper waterproof shelter, warm blankets, warm clothes, and medicine for his mother.

Please donate now. Whether it's 50 dollars or 1 dollars, anything helps.

If you can afford to buy a coffee, you can afford to donate.

If you are genuinely unable to donate, share his posts with someone who can donate and help. Make a post to raise awareness about their situation and share their story so more people can see and help.

Reblog his posts with tags to keep them in circulation!!

The bombardment does not stop. Our situation is the same, and we are dying from fear and the freezing cold. Please help us—donate and share, I beg you.

Last night I sat beside my baby Qais, cleaning his wound as he cried quietly, his small body shaking from pain and fear, and I felt the world turn away from us—I will not forgive being ignored without even a share.

His injury is worsening, infection is spreading, and medicine is out of reach while time runs out faster than my tears—please help us now, save my child, and keep him alive by donating today.

I am a mother begging with everything left in me: don’t scroll past Qais’s pain. A share, a prayer, or support can change his fate and give my baby a chance to heal.

Baby Qais no longer plays, laughs, or sleeps peacefully—his days are measured by pain, infection, and waiting. Every minute without help steals his strength. Please donate now— don’t let this be his ending.

The children of Gaza don’t die all at once. They fade slowly—too weak to cry, too tired to stand.

Every day, more children in Gaza fall victim to hunger and malnutrition. Their tiny bodies grow weaker while the world looks away. Food is scarce, aid is blocked, and hope is slipping through our fingers. This is not just a crisis — it’s a war on survival.

Please, help save a child before it's too late. Your support can mean a life saved.

If it makes you feel any better at all e hoa, I once had someone accuse me of racefishing/digital brownface due have having ‘Pākehā’ in my bio because, and this is a direct quote seared into my brain: “you know everyone else in the world will assume that’s a Māori [iwi]*”. That is… not my problem I fear!!! Google is free!!!!

*they said ‘tribe’ lol get entirely fucked

Avatar

GOD THAT'S SO SOMETHING. HELLOO. friends is it racefishing to (checks notes) refer to your ethnicity in the language of the people native to the country you live in. something that many many people here do. as a small but significant gesture of support for te reo māori and for decolonisation. I'm losing my mind

Avatar

cant stop thinking abt this post bc its such a perfect and blatant example of people taking their own country's attitude to race and racial terminology and assuming it automatically applies to everyone else without even considering that Different Countries Are Different and the terminology you're familiar with might have different implications to people from other countries

in aotearoa there can be (not 100% of the time but often) a racist dogwhistle element to identifying yourself as white/nz european. people from mildly racist uncles all the way up to overt white supremacists will reject the term pākehā and even claim it's racist against white people to use a term from the indigenous language of this country rather than be defined in european terms. (you'll see a lot of the same arguments from them as you see from cis people who consider cis a slur.)

defining yourself as pākehā is to respect the term given to you by the native people of this country, to show solidarity for the proliferation of te reo Māori, and to express an identity that is uniquely kiwi. defining yourself as white/nz european emphasises solidarity with whiteness and european culture over the culture of this nation.

race relations are different in different countries! terminology has different implications in different countries! if someone's defining themself using a term you don't know, google it! chances are they have a good fucking reason!

I am mistaken for a trans woman all the time. This has never resulted in any systemic oppression of me, violence directed towards me, or anything resembling the depth of the reality of the transfem experience. I am not transmisogyny affected because I can easily tell someone I'm not transfem and all their biases will literally just disappear. That's what TME privilege is, fundamentally.

I do think that all types of bigotry make the world worse for everyone. Often, bigotry makes the world less safe for everyone. However, there really is a fundamental difference in how something impacts you when you are the intended target vs when you are an incidental target. When cis women are thrown out of the women's restroom for looking like trans women, there will be hundreds of articles and news outlets rallying behind them and the injustice they experienced. Do trans women get the same widespread support? These women will not likely fear using the restroom for the rest of their lives as many trans people do. When cis women are harassed by transphobic authors for participating in sports, they are able to sue for defamation and win...in addition to getting hundreds of news articles supporting them. Do trans women get that support? Do they have legal recourse for that type of harassment? And ultimately, these women can experience transmisogynistic harassment and continue to be transmisogynists themselves. (I remember reading about a TERF who was actually thanked her harasser when she was thrown out of a bathroom... ) Straight people are sometimes physically assaulted just for 'looking gay'. Does that mean that they experience the depth and breadth of the political reality of being a gay person through the rest of their life? Did they have to worry about comphet, being in the closet, getting thrown out of their home, being abandoned by their parents, losing their church, losing out on jobs and on and on? I may sometimes experience slurs intended for trans women. I may experience some of the dirty looks. I wouldn't put it as out of the question that I could be physically assaulted...either for homophobic or transmisogynistic reasons. But I do not inhabit the day-to-day political reality of trans women, or women in general. I do not know what it is like to have my entire being contorted into the brutal shape that manhood demands when it doesn't fit. I do not get street harassed. I do not lose out on job opportunities, raises or promotions. (I get more now than I did as a "cis woman"!!!) If someone misgenders me I can get aggressive without being painted as a violent predator. I will never get called out for my weird kinks. I will never receive the type of harassment and stalking that trans women experience. I will never be assumed to be a rapist or a pedophile, just for who I am. I saw firsthand how much worse my trans girlfriend was treated when we left Seattle for vacation than I was. If you can't even acknowledge that women are hurt more by misogyny than men are, if you don't want to do something about that, then we don't have anything to talk about.
