Hello! Have you ever heard of a "city of the dead"?

It's a place where the living reside, but they're dead! They're doomed to die, either quickly through direct targeting or slowly due to the absence of vitality in their city

Wherever you turn, you find nothing but death, displacement, homelessness, destruction, hunger, thirst, ignorance, disease, and rampant infection.

It's my city! It was fully with life until the butchers passed through it! Since the beginning of the massacres, I've been struggling to save myself and my family.

I am Mohammed from Gaza I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.

a 31-year-old living amidst the war in Gaza, a place deeply affected by conflict and hardship. I hold a Bachelor degree in Medical Laboratory Sciences , I graduated with very good But Unfortunately, I did not get a job opportunity.

Before the outbreak of war, my family and I had a comfortable life in our beautiful home filled with cherished memories. However, since the conflict began, our lives have been turned upside down. We now find ourselves living in a small tent, exposed to the harsh elements and constant threat of violence.

Our home, which once embraced us, is now destroyed It became a remembrance

👉 Watch the video

A picture of me and my family in front of our destroyed house.

👉Our house was bombed in the 2008 escalation and we built it, and also in the 2014 escalation the house was destroyed again and we rebuilt it, and in this 2023/2024 war the house was also destroyed.

Every time we start again, the Israeli occupation destroys us again

Life is unbearable. It has become hell for us. destruction, no education, no future

We can't stand it anymore

The situation here is dire. Food and basic necessities are scarce, and famine and malnutrition have become rampant. Our lives are hanging by a thread, and we fear for the safety and well-being of our children every single day.

The cost of living here has become extremely high. All of our resources are going towards securing food and trying to escape from disaster, desperately seeking a lifeline.

We are yearning to escape this nightmare and rebuild our lives in a safe place.

However, the cost of traveling to a safer area was beyond our means.

The border crossing is currently closed, but Netanyahu has decided to open the Rafah border crossing to allow people to leave the Gaza Strip in the coming days.

We want to raise funds to leave Gaza if the crossing opens, so we can live in safety and peace, and secure a future for ourselves and our children.

That's why I am reaching out to you, dear friends. Your generosity and compassion can make all the difference for me and my family. Your donations will enable us to flee this war-torn region and start anew, away from the horrors of conflict and instability.

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

Stop for a moment; you could change a family's destiny!!

We've reached a point where we barely have the strength to ask for help.

The end of the year is approaching, and my lease is due for another six months. My children also have monthly school fees, which are a significant expense. I haven't received any support in a long time. Please don't underestimate the importance of sharing this.

I previously posted a request for donations to repair my tent, as it became uninhabitable due to the rain, but I received no support. I was forced to rent a room with a bathroom and kitchen, and I asked for help again, but still received nothing. I also asked for help with my children's school fees, and again, I received no support.

Please look upon my children with compassion. 🙏🏻❤️

Hello everyone, my name is Marwa from Gaza. I have a heart condition and need ongoing treatment. I'm responsible for two children and I need your support. You can donate $5 or $10 through this link. Thank you. As you know, we have nothing left after this war. Our lives have been completely destroyed. We've been displaced and forced to move from place to place multiple times. We spent the summer in tents and the winter cold without shelter. We need a tent that isn't torn, blankets for my family, and access to treatment, food, and daily necessities. Thank you so much for your support and generosity. I hope you can donate if you can.🍉🇵🇸😢🙏

I believe this campaign is vetted

This campaign seems to be vetted by association, and I'll show the proof below

I'll tag some vetters @gazavetters @gaza-evacuation-funds @bilal-sala7

(I am not a vetter, I am just passing on the information I have found)

Last Donation was 22 Hours Ago as of this reblog

(All vetting information is in my reblog chain)

This video I filmed for children my prathar while they were playing in one of the amusement parks in Gaza. I was looking at them and I was happy because they were happy, as if I had everything when I saw my children playing and laughing. But when the war happened, I almost felt helpless because I was unable to provide them with safety That's when our house was bombed and we lost many of my family members. I, my children, and the rest of the family miraculously survived. Then I was struck by a feeling of fear and helplessness. where I go ? Where can I find a safe place for me and my children?

I run from one place to another and there is hardly any safe place So as not to be too long for you, words are too small to describe this feeling as you see your children living in a bitter reality where there are no necessities for a normal life.

Please share my story so I can reach my goal raising €30,000

@nabulsi @awetistic-things @blackpearlblast

After visiting the hospital and seeing the doctor, it became clear that Ahmed needed urgent surgery, but the cost was expensive and we didn't have enough money. I don't know how long Ahmed will be able to endure the pain. Please help me get the surgery. Ahmed was born through IVF and was admitted to the incubator due to holes in his heart. He was exposed to artificial oxygen, which affected his eyesight and caused vision problems. You are my only hope with your donation and sharing this post.

We need your help. The situation is very difficult. You are our last hope. Food, clothes, milk, rent, everything has become very expensive. My son Ahmed needs heart surgery and eye surgery. Save my son so he can complete his treatment and undergo the operation. In addition to my family in Gaza, my father, mother, brothers and sisters are living in very difficult conditions as a result of the war and continuous bombing. We hope you will help by donating and sharing the post 🙏🙏

Please help me

My wife, children, and I are still stranded in Egypt. The situation is extremely difficult, and we have no income except through your help and donations. My son Ahmed needs surgery and ongoing medical follow-up. I suffer from a back injury that prevents me from working. Your donations, even small ones, will protect my children and enable me to cover Ahmed's medical expenses and provide for their needs. You are our only hope. Please donate and share this post.

My dear friends,

I’m heartbroken to say that I lost access to my last donation campaign. Since then… our situation has only gotten worse. My little sister Sela is still suffering. Her body is still weak from hunger and malnutrition, and now she has to face the cold winter in a torn tent… no warmth, no protection, nothing but the freezing wind around her fragile frame.

These past few weeks, I’ve searched desperately for any kind of job—anything to give my family a chance to survive—but the destruction here has left no opportunities. The market is barely functioning, and hope is slipping through our fingers.

Please, if you can… help me. Help Sela. Help us survive this winter.

With all my heart—thank you.

Even a small donation can mean warmth, medicine, or food for my sister. Your kindness can save us.

Now, you are my last and only hope.

May you never know this kind of pain.

Please don’t skip but donate and spread awareness

Christmas Without Warmth in Gaza

While the world lights up Christmas trees, we are spending this holiday inside a cold, torn tent that cannot protect us from rain or wind.

My children do not know the meaning of gifts. Their only wish is to sleep without freezing, and to wake up without hunger or illness.

Christmas is a season of mercy, of family, and of saving lives before it is too late.

With your support, you can give my children warmth, food, and a chance for life beyond this endless pain.

Your donation today could be the greatest gift to children in Gaza. 🤍 Thank you to every heart that chooses to be a light in this darkness.

Masaki Suda as Kuranosuke Koibuchi in 海月姫 Princess Jellyfish (2014)

what if it's not me?

In this world, there exist a few blessed people known as "Jewels." Gifted with beautiful jeweled eyes and the ability to grant wishes, they reside in a sprawling mansion called "The Jewelry Box." Yuni is the newest arrival to The Jewelry Box, but with her "rusted iron" eyes, she couldn't feel more out of place. Still, Yuni is determined to grant someone's wish. In trying to achieve this goal she encounters a fellow Jewel, Alclaire, who asks for her help in exposing the dark truths that lie beneath the beautiful artifice of The Jewelry Box.

Iron Rust and 1000 Carat has an interesting premise and a breathtakingly beautiful artsyle. Besides the full color illustrations, the artist will occasionally use spot color for emphasis during a scene and it's incredibly effective. I already like the dynamic between Yuni and Alclaire, and I'm curious to see where exactly their relationship will go. Anyone looking for a unique shoujo manga should definitely give it a try!
