Hello, I'd like to ask that you spare Mohammed some money. He's been raising money for his family of 5 since last year, the youngest of which is only 6 years old. Israel's violation of the ceasefire, he once again needs help to be able to afford basic goods for his family.

Vetted by GazaVetters, No. 77 (the fundraiser is in his youngest brother's name)

Donate to the GoFundMe or directly to PayPal

Just because I'm from Gaza, does that mean no one will agree to work with me, even on something simple?

As soon as they know (I'm from Gaza),

you'll find they suddenly change their mind and refuse the opportunity to collaborate, whether it's work or a service.

This is what I'm suffering from in my freelance work online. This is all in addition to the fact that the company I used to work for cancelled my contract at the beginning of the war.

That's why I've been forced to ask for your help...

I've honestly stopped saying (that I'm from Gaza)

because I'm afraid that once they know there's a war going on, they'll decide they don't want to work with me anymore.

This situation creates a huge challenge for me, especially with the war starting again. There's a great need for work to cover the exorbitant expenses after the price increases.

Please stand with us, just this once!

We have many talented people who work under the most oppressive conditions in the world, and don't let them become helpless. It's enough that we're being fought against by the whole world.

it’s funny they’re trying to make this app more like IG which is trying to be more like TikTok which is trying to be like Twitter which is. one big failure

Reminder that notes/online attention are not a reliable indicator of how well a campaign is going.

You might see fundraising posts with thousands of notes on your dash daily and think to yourself "this person must be doing fine!"

I wish that were true. I saw a post earlier referring to people with fundraisers as "those fortunate enough to have internet clout" but unfortunately internet clout is not a currency that can buy food and other necessities. It's only a testament to how much effort that person spends desperately networking in order to make ends meet, and often not succeeding at that. These people do not have an advantage.

I spotlight for @dr-anas96 and his posts consistently get a lot of notes. He's vetted here.

And where does that get him?

He's barely at 19% of his goal, as of today, December 13th, which marks 6 months since he started fundraising.

Anas is slowly dying of starvation and of his illnesses that he cannot currently get treated for. Don't be fooled by the amount of notes this will get. If you can spare a dollar please don't hesitate to donate here.
