My name is Mahmoud Al-Halaq, from Palestine - Gaza - I am 29 years old. This message is addressed to every person who carries compassion, kindness, and love in their heart. After 470 days of war on Gaza, the destruction that has occurred, the displacement we have faced, moving from one place to another, and the loss and death of loved ones and friends, I found myself alone without a home or place, and even the prices of food are astronomical. The world has changed so much that life has become gloomy and boring. Therefore, I ask for your help in rebuilding myself, my life, and my family’s life anew. You are our remaining hope in life. If there were an opportunity to work, I would not waste a minute nor ask for help from anyone, but I urgently need assistance for my family, my children, and the women to rebuild what has been destroyed and crushed in this devastating and painful war. Thank you for your time and support; we draw our strength and resilience from your support. 🍉
‼️🚨 To all supporters and backers of Palestine, I need your help and support for me and my family 🙏🍉
We are a beautiful family who lost my brother in the 2014 war, this campaign is for my family to save our lives and bring back hope to my family after I lost everything, I hope you can help me evacuate my family.
The war destroyed everything beautiful and changed our features. Every day we endure humiliation, hunger, fear, death, torment and regret. War must be cursed a thousand times. 💔🥹
This is Haitham, my nephew who lives with us and we need your support and help to save Haitham from this war so that we do not lose him as we lost my brother 🙏🇵🇸🥹
I asked every member of my family if they felt they would survive this war, and surprisingly they all gave the same answer, no, they denied that they would survive.🥹🥹
!!Don’t ignore my message, I need your time. Help me by donating
A small donation can make a big difference
I hope you will take care of us and help us evacuate quickly, as the situation is catastrophic - in the tents - and yet, for more than 330 days, my family and I have been exposed to intense bombing and missiles from warplanes in the Gaza Strip 🥹🥹😭
This campaign took a month and a few days, trying to raise money to get us out of here quietly, then to a safer and warmer place, then to a better reality and life. We deserve better than this, so help us by donating even a small amount, it will make a difference 🙏
Homeless LGBT couple needs help!!! (Anniversary Edition!)
Hello everyone!
My family and I are still dealing with being homeless and this year overall has been rough on us. I’ve been doing what I can to try and find work and a place to live but until we have some breakthrough, this situation is going to continue like this or worse. My health hasn’t improved any and it’s getting to the point where it’s hard to stay awake. I have my next appointment soon, but with my appointments getting canceled at random, it’s been dragging out. April is my wife’s and my 21st anniversary and our first year since getting married and it would really mean a lot of we can spend this month with less stress and regular access to food.
I am asking around for help covering a motel room, food, important bills, and other necessities while we look to escape this situation. The weather has been unpredictable and between the cold rainy days and the random scorching hot days, it’s making my health and pain so much worse so having shelter is important right now. Please share this where you can if you see it and any help making ends meet is greatly appreciated. My notes have been getting high lately without a lot coming in so please don’t assume that notes means we’re getting what we need. Thank you to everyone who has helped us so far.
I also have Zelle. Please, no hate or unsolicited advice. I’m exhausted and burnt out. You will be blocked.
We are about to lose shelter in the morning, and we need help getting to a new motel as quickly as possible. Extra for food is appreciated, but right now, I am desperate to avoid being stuck out all day/night tomorrow.
We are out in 15 hours.
9 hours.
We have no shelter today. Please help us get into a place to stay this week. I’m barely able to keep awake with how bad I feel.
We got into a room last night, but again, we are without shelter. Someone, please help us cover a few days so I can try and rest. Everything is in pain, and now our car needs servicing. Things are going downhill faster than I can handle it.
Hey, oomfies! This Eid, let’s spread some more love to Gaza. Grassroots orgs there are doing incredible work despite the many limitations…getting food, meds, and shelter to families who’ve lost everything. Even a few bucks can make a real difference. Donate the cost of a coffee!
On November 7, 2024, Denmark used a racist, culturally biased “parenting competency” test to remove a 2 hour old baby, Zammi, from her loving indigenous Greenlandic Inuit mother, Keira, because her native language, which uses minute facial expressions to communicate, will not be able to “[prepare] the child for the social expectations and codes that are necessary to navigate in Danish society.” This test had been recommended not to be used at the federal level before this happened but certain municipalities, including the one this happened in, chose to continue to use it regardless. Not only is this blatantly racist but also violates multiple declarations and conventions that Denmark has signed that protect the rights of indigenous people.
Please sign this petition to help Keira to get her baby back.
Hey, it’s really important for Keira to get 50,000 signatures on this petition before her court date in early April 2025. Please sign if you haven’t already to help a mother and a people stand up to colonialism and for indigenous rights.
Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.
I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.
Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔

30 days of continuous and permanent closure of the crossings in all directions, 30 days without a single morsel of food entering Gaza, 30 days of famine and the return of genocide
Eid has come to the Gaza Strip, but the Israeli aggression has not ended. The occupation is still practicing ethnic cleansing against us and our children. The situation here is catastrophic. Please continue to help.
