last night i was on the phone with my 74 year old mother in gaza trying to explain how tumblr is helping us stay alive and she cuts me off frustrated “tumblr? what even is that? how are these people with strange names and pictures gonna help when we don’t have bread? the children are hungry. this is genocide.” so i said mama these people are real they’re donating so we can survive and she scoffed “show me one of them actually helping” so i opened tumblr and read a message “mama a friend sent us $20 yesterday that’s how we bought two loaves of bread yesterday and another one shared our story with their friends” silence then she sighed “well god bless them even if their names and pictures are ridiculous” then she goes “thank you to everyone out there you’re the reason we’re still alive and please continue donating and sharing! your support truly makes a difference”.

if you can’t donate via gofundme you can use paypal instead please note that 110 sek is approximately 10 usd and 220 sek is around 20 usd.

Falastin has been fundraising since June of this year, but has only achieved 22% of her goal! Let's fix this, please. Donate and share so her 26 family members can purchase flour and make bread. It will also show her 74 year old mother that there is hope. And make sure to pay attention the currency exchange!

$10 USD = 110 SEK!

There is also PayPal available and you can give as little as $1 USD!

Thank you @neptunerings and @cantsayidont for the additions, and to everyone who's donated and shared our story.

It’s been a tough ride since June and while I’ve only reached 22% of my goal due to my limited reach, these past 6 months have been a mix of heartache and resilience. I’ve lost one cousin leaving behind two orphaned kids and had to perform surgery on another cousin using plates from a deceased person. We’ve even had to buy a tent just to survive. But through all this chaos, I still hold on to hope.

The journey’s far from over but your support keeps me going. Every donation, share, tagging and addition amplifies our voice and makes a real difference, whether it’s helping us get bread or just reminding us that hope is still alive.

I can’t find the words to fully express my gratitude to everyone who has supported us. My family is enduring genocide, suffering, freezing cold, and high prices but we’re beyond grateful for every bit of help. Special thanks to @feluka for the sweet hashtags "#الله يحرس والدتك and #دمها سكر" and to everyone who’s left kind hashtags and sent heartfelt messages along with their donations "you’re the real MVPs, no cap". I’ll pass all your messages along to my mom, wallah, as soon as they get some internet over there!

We still have a long way to go but your support is what keeps us going. Keep sharing, donating and spreading the word every little bit helps even if it’s just sharing some bread for now.

Big thanks to everyone who’s donated, shared, and stood by us, your support means EVERYTHING! 🌟 Huge thank @afro-elf for the love and the sweat hashtag! My mom’s probably going to make a Tumblr just to follow you and follow other who donated and shared this post, so get ready for a new follower soon! 💖 I’ll pass your message along, wallah, as soon as they get some internet over there!

They’re going through a lot, genocide, cold wether, and high prices but we’re beyond grateful to everyone who’s stepped up to help. Every little bit counts so please keep donating, sharing, tagging, and spreading the word. Even the smallest act of kindness means the world.

There’s a bittersweet joy in witnessing the struggles of my Syrian siblings bear moments of hope, but it feels like a fleeting spark, a fragile light overshadowed by deeper, relentless forces. Can we call this freedom? Or is it just a brief pause in a cycle of pain that has gripped us for far too long?

For decades, the Middle East has been scarred by war, division, and unimaginable suffering. These aren’t random tragedies, they are deliberate, calculated acts meant to maintain control. As long as Zionism continues to reshape the region, inching closer to the goal of a Greater Israel, true freedom for any of us will remain a distant dream.

But freedom isn’t just about removing one dictator or another. Real freedom requires dismantling the entire system that keeps us in chains. It’s about a shift in power, a dismantling of structures that oppress us all. Until Palestine is free, until the people who are suffering are allowed to breathe, none of us can say we’re free.

This isn’t just a political issue for me, it’s personal. My family in Gaza is living through an unthinkable reality: genocide, freezing cold nights without shelter, hunger, and prices so high that survival is a struggle each day. They’re stuck in a nightmare that keeps getting worse, and their suffering is not just a faraway tragedy, it’s a pain that echoes through me.

And yet, despite the immense pain, I hold on to hope. Because I know that change is possible. Every small donation, every act of solidarity, can ripple outward and transform lives. This isn’t just charity, it’s resistance. It’s standing together to defy those who profit from our suffering. You have the power to be part of this change. Stand with Gaza. Stand for freedom. Stand for humanity.

This campaign is for 26 lives hanging by a thread, including two orphaned children and a family member suffering from hemiplegia after being hit by shrapnel during a bombing. She urgently needs surgery to replace infected plates in her body. The situation is dire, and every day is a battle. The video showing the injured family member was shared earlier in this post: Link.

Please help us ! Donate and reblog this post to spread our story.

If, for some reason, you couldn't donate via GoFundMe, you can donate via PayPal instead. Please keep the conversion rates in mind when donating through GoFundMe. Every 100 SEK is equivalent to 10 dollars, and 200 SEK equals 20 dollars and so on.

Only 1 donation has been made in the past 24 hours. As Falastin has written above, this fundraiser supports 26 family members! They have no source of income and this is their only way to support themselves financially during this extremely dangerous time. So please donate and share! And make sure to double check to the currency exchange when you're donating to the GFM.

$10 USD = 110 SEK!

There is also PayPal available and you can give as little as $1 USD!

Only 3 donations in the last day after two days of nothing.

Please remember that those who are donating via gofundme, the currency is set to krona. Exchange rates matter a lot, because 5kr is just a few cents. The exchange rate is $10 USD = 110 krona SEK.

IT HAS BEEN A WHOLE DAY SINCE THE LAST DONATION.

There has been only one donation in twenty one hours today. I would also like to remind you that Falastin mentions that every 100 SEK is 10 US dollars

@buttercuparry, @paparoach, and @neptunerings, thank you for amplifying our voice and for your incredible support. We’re enduring genocide, unimaginable suffering, cold weather, and high prices but we’re deeply grateful to everyone who has stepped forward to help.

p.s. she still think emojis are hieroglyphics but she’s been sending them to everyone so we know she’s on board. 😅

grinding for gaza while trying to keep my sanity intact. i'm just here on tumblr writing post after post, asking, begging for donations, for help. i craft these words carefully hoping someone somewhere might care enough to hit that reblog button or send a few dollars. then i go hunting for the tagging list hoping someone with a bigger reach than me will help amplify my voice because seriously what else can i do? message after message, waiting for a reply, a reblog, anything. the silence is deafening. i wait for the donation notification to pop up like it’s some kind of life raft. maybe just maybe it’ll float my family out of this hell. but mostly i’m sitting here clicking, praying, hoping while my phone keeps buzzing with more bad news. sighs deeply. well back to the grind i guess. shuffle away quietly. maybe trip on a rock this time. who knows.

Yoav Gallant wanted for crimes against humanity is warmly welcomed in Washington, while Gaza suffers through genocide. The same leaders who host war criminals dare to lecture the world on justice and human rights. This hypocrisy isn’t just staggering, it’s deadly.

My family in Gaza is enduring a nightmare no one should ever have to face: genocide, freezing nights without shelter, hunger, and prices so high that survival itself feels like a constant fight.

This campaign is for 26 lives hanging by a thread including two orphaned children and a family member who, after being struck by shrapnel, now suffers from hemiplegia. She urgently needs surgery to replace infected plates in her body. Every hour that passes brings her closer to death.

The world’s silence deepens our suffering, but you can be the change. Your donations will provide food, medicine, and the care they desperately need to survive. Every single act of kindness counts. Every donation helps keep them alive.

Thank you so much, @lesbianmaxevans, for reblogging again and for your continued support. Please know your actions are deeply appreciated.

To everyone who’s donated and shared, we’re so grateful. The last donation came 13 hours ago, and even $5 or $10 makes a huge difference. Please keep sharing and donating..every bit brings us closer to hope.

We really have to hand it to kids' drawings. They're like little emotional time bombs, chaotic, pure, and ready to explode with meaning at any second. My son’s masterpiece? It’s got all the feels: hope, resilience, and a superhero vibe that makes you believe a pencil can save the world.

Then there’s my friend’s version, same idea but polished, powerful, and radiating strength and determination. One full of innocence and love, the other showing how far we’ve come in the fight for survival. Together, they remind me that even in the darkest times, there is light.

Maybe these drawings aren’t enough to stop you in your tracks. Maybe they’re not “good enough” to inspire donations or make you share this post. But behind each one, there’s a story of survival, resilience, and unshakable hope. This campaign isn’t just about me. It’s about 26 people, 26 lives hanging by a thread. That includes two orphaned children and a family member who’s suffering from hemiplegia after being hit by shrapnel during a bombing. She urgently needs surgery to replace infected plates in her body. The situation is dire, and every day is a battle. The video showing the injured family member is shared before in this post: Link.

Still waiting for a sign? Well, here it is. Resilience is great, but it doesn’t exactly cover surgeries, medicine, clothes, or food. Please help us ! Donate and reblog this post to spread our story.
