I need to once again ask for you all to help my friends Ahmed and Dina Alanqar and their four young children in Gaza. Unfortunately they've been struggling to contact GFM about issues transferring funds, so they needed to begin a new campaign from scratch.
Ahmed tells me the situation is becoming worse by the day now. Bombs are falling around them and the price of food keeps rising.
When they tried to return to their home they found their childrens clothes were burned and torn in rubble.
Please assist in their continued survival and ensure they have a chance to escape when they can. Donate and share! ♥️
please donate!!! the situation is becoming more urgent and its a terrible shame GFM is keeping life-saving funds from Gazans. the goal is now $22,000 - we've been able to raise far more before, so let's keep standing by Dina and Ahmed's family!!
The flames consume bodies—or do the bodies fuel the flames? The UNRWA clinic massacre in Jabalia just happened, taking the lives of 19 people, including 9 innocent children. As a mother in Gaza, I live in constant fear, with no safe place to turn. My baby, Qais, was injured in this cruel war, and I have no money to afford his treatment. Please, I beg you to help us. Your donation could save his life.
1. Children Are the Victims – 9 of the 19 people killed were children, caught in a place meant for healing.
2. Nowhere Is Safe – Even clinics and shelters are targets, leaving families with no refuge.
3. Urgent Medical Needs – Injured civilians like my son are left untreated due to the collapse of the healthcare system.
How many more must die before the world acts? I ask you from the bottom of my heart: help me save my son. Qais is still so small, still learning to speak, and he deserves a chance to grow, to heal, to live. Without support, I fear I will lose him. Please donate—your kindness can be the difference between life and death.
After experiencing complications with gofundme, Mohiy and his family are now relying on paypal to receive donations. Please support his family through the link above and share.
Most of the funds Mohiy was able to raise on gofundme have gone towards his family's survival. With the rising costs of goods, they need continued support to be able to meet their most basic needs. Resources are scarce and expensive as it is, but winter has added to the suffering of everyone in Gaza, making the needs for things like warm food, warm clothes, and shelter even greater as cold and rain worsen already dangerous living conditions. Mohiy's mother, who suffers from chronic illness, is especially vulnerable right now due to the freezing temperatures.
Please donate and share to help offer Mohiy and his family some relief. Every contribution helps, no matter how small.
still sometimes think about how when my apartment got raided by cops back in 2021 i had a massive neon sign on the wall of my living room that just said "crime"
ik it's an old-ass joke but the ability of ppl on this site to Not Know Who They're Following. like it was on the news. not the local or even the national news . this was a global scale international diplomatic incident
luigi mangione facing the death penalty just seems like a bad decision for america. so there's this guy that everyone loves and considers a hero, and we arrested him after very obviously planting fake evidence. and now we're going to subject him to an unfair trial and kill him at the end. there's no way anyone will be mad about that right
I contemplate the happy faces of people around me here in Ireland and reminisce about the happy normal life my family and I had before the war. A life that turned into a distant memory for us and was replaced by an unending series of horrible nightmares.
Unlike my family in Gaza, people here have access to drinking water, all types of food, electricity, and a roof over their heads. Above all, they are safe, and I cannot help but wonder if they genuinely do appreciate these blessings in their lives enough.
People seem relaxed and laughing wholeheartedly around me in Ireland. I wish I could laugh too, but I am crushed way beyond recovery on the inside. I was evacuated by my Irish college after five months of living the horrors of war in Gaza. I hope you will never know what it feels like to live in constant fear and worry and be horrified by the most sickening and scary nightmares every single night while you are far away from your family in such circumstances.
When did my people in Gaza cease to be human beings worthy and deserving of a normal life? Has it become normal now for my family in Gaza to be starved and killed while the whole world is watching the genocide? If that is the case, then you will have to excuse me if I seek every avenue to bring them to Ireland and start a new normal life like all people here around me.
I was assured by the Irish Reugee Council (IRC) and lawyers in Ireland that there is hope I can reunite with my family in Ireland. In difficult times, it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. For me and my family, you are literally our light and hope for a better life.
