This is my daughter, Salma, only three months old, born into this "cruel war that has been killing innocent people for two years and is still ongoing." Since her birth, she has felt nothing but fear and hunger, deprived of her most basic rights. She needs food, safety, and a dignified life that every child deserves. Therefore, I appeal to you from the bottom of my heart to support her and extend a helping hand to save her. Your donation today could make a difference in saving her from certain death. Donate here

Guys i don’t want to optimize you if you still care about genocide in gaza .

But the news saying the ceasefire agreement is done and they will maybe tomorrow Announce it .

Best thing is the isareli army will withdraw from all Gaza Strip that’s mean the Rafah border crossing will back to work again so i need your support your help so I could take my brother Mohammed out to be with his Son Zayed and his wife.

And didn’t told you before my brother Omar engaged and His fiancee still in north gaza. He asked me alot to tel you about her so he can also be with the love of his life.

Don’t think your contribution is small even the one dollar helps . Sharing also helping.

You’re helping me and my family in gaza to survive ..

I know most of you life not easy for you but any help makes a difference 🫶🏼

Waking up to the news the isareli army order the people in my neighborhood to leave called my brother he told me that’s he is not leaving.. and there’s heavy bombing

I’m so worried about my brother 😭

Tomorrow the first day of Eid al-Fitr in Palestine 🇵🇸

But in gaza will be eid of bombs and death unfortunately ☹️

Famine has begun to strike the people of Gaza mercilessly, with all bakeries closed, all sources of income lost, and all goods in the markets unavailable.

In Egypt, Eid El Fitr prayer started with,

"لولا أننا أُمرنا بالفرحة ، ما كان لنا عيد"

"If it weren't for the fact that we're obligated to celebrate, we wouldn't have any joy today"

Hearts and prayers always with Gaza

Today is Eid El Fitr is Egypt in 2025. One year later, still the same

"This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :

“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.

By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.

I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”

— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza."

‏Today's vetted fundraisers

My name is Mohammed Zaqout, a Palestinian living in the USA, and I am organizing this fundraiser to help my family in Gaza, who are facing a severe humanitarian crisis. My siblings and their young children are trapped in desperate conditions, suffering from starvation, lack of clean water, electricity, internet, and medical care. They have lost everything, witnessing constant bombings and even white phosphorus attacks. Aid is limited, and the situation is worsening, especially with winter approaching. I feel powerless, as I cannot abandon them and fear losing them at any moment. Any support to help reunite me with my family would be deeply appreciated.

How similar tonight is to last night...

As if yesterday never passed, as if nothing has changed. A ceasefire that never happened, and peace that never came.

Are killing and devastation the only solutions? Have we lost our humanity? Do we not deserve to live like everyone else? Why all this hatred? Is there no other way to resolve conflicts besides killing and starvation?

Please, do not become accustomed to the scene. The war is not completely over yet, and we must not forget the harsh days we have endured.

We need every helping hand, every heart in solidarity, and every voice to amplify our cause. Reviving life here is not a choice it is an obligation we all share. Let us come together on this journey of healing and restoring hope.

‼️‼️‼️@ala-kah hasn’t responded or seen my texts since monday please spread this as far as possible and try and get in contact with her if you can time is of the essence here and if you can please donate to her campaign‼️‼️‼️‼️

‼️‼️‼️MAJOR UPDATE: ala has just now replied she’s alright and safe for now but please repost and share since there’s still been no donations in the past few days‼️‼️

Not that it's anything new, but the "voluntary" in "voluntary migration" really drives home the utter shamelessness of the occupation.

They destroy Gazan homes, hospitals, schools, roads, universities, infrastructure, cut off their water and electricity, then when they have no choice but to escape the hell that was created for them, claim they "voluntarily" chose to leave their land behind and have no right to return.

When Nakba deniers claim that Palestinians "chose" to leave their land, remember this.

Amal's baby daughter, Mariam, has known no childhood outside of surviving this genocide. She will soon be of age to attend school. Last we spoke, she had a very close call during the most recent bombardment. If she wants to give her daughter a chance at normalcy, security, education, and a decent childhood, but those options have been taken away from Gaza, is this voluntary migration?

Mahmoud wants to continue his education. He has been able to scrape by through remote learning online, but every day it becomes harder to even find reliable internet access. Last we spoke, he was trying to pay his fees in time, so that he would be allowed to enroll in this semester. If he wants to pursue his degree, but the conditions in Gaza have made that impossible, is this voluntary migration?

Dr. Anas is a cancer patient. His physical and mental health have been obliterated by this genocide. Last we spoke, he told me that after making some recovery during the ceasefire, he's now back to square one. If he wants to live, to continue his job as a doctor, and to recover from depression, which is impossible to do during bombardment, is this voluntary migration?

Samir is severely injured, and in immediate danger of losing his leg. Last we spoke, his sister told me that the bombardment in their area are more intense than they've ever been. If Samir wants to undergo surgery to save his leg, but there are no such options in Gaza, is this voluntary migration?

Please don't abandon them like our administrations have. They shouldn't have to rely on our generosity, but they must.

Donate: Amal, Mahmoud, Anas, Samir

I am close friends with the Al-Habil family, whose situation I have discussed under our “#ibtisam al habil” tag. There is still a lot of concern for the youngest child Nour, who is a disabled teen about whose situation you can learn more under our “#Nour Al habil” tag.

Torrential rains have flooded the streets of Gaza and all but destroyed the family’s tent. They are inundated with freezing, extremely contaminated water, which is extremely dangerous for 15 y/o Nour.

Nour is immunocompromised due to her heart condition. These flood waters carry gangrene, cholera, and polio bacteria among numerous others, as well as many viruses and pollutants.

We were about halfway through raising the funds for the tent when Nour’s mother, Ibtisam, suffered a herniated disc after sustaining an injury while moving a barrel of water. She is in severe pain, and can barely move. This is not only miserable and unhealthy for her, it also prevents her from caring for Nour.

In addition to the ongoing $2,000 USD needed for shelter, the family now needs $300 USD (about $433 CAD) to help Ibtisam manage her pain and be able to move.

New temporary goal: $52,971 CAD

Currently: $50,804 CAD

Need to raise: $2,167 CAD (about $1,500 USD)

VERY URGENT SUPPORT NEEDED!! Teen girl in danger of organ failure!!!!

An unknown individual hacked the family’s bank account and stole $1000 about to be used for Nour’s treatment!!

Nour needs to receive this treatment IMMEDIATELY!!!! The treatment costs $800 USD, about $1,142 CAD. We need to raise this money URGENTLY or young Nour could go into HEART FAILURE!!

PLEASE donate what you can, and share the family’s campaign as widely as possible!! Copy and paste this link across all your social media platforms and ask your followers and friends for support!! LINK: https://www.gofundme.com/f/4qzqg-help-a-family-from-gaza

Currently: $56,240 CAD

New temporary goal: $57,382 CAD

Need to raise: about $1,142 CAD or $800 USD

Progress: $60 out of $1,142 CAD, or about $42 out of $800 USD

Thank you to our anonymous donor for your support! Please continue to share this post and donate anything you can, even $10 CAD (about $7 USD) helps!!!

Progress: $110 out of $1,142 CAD, or about $77 out of $800 USD—just under 10% of our goal

Thank you so much to another anonymous donor!!

PLEASE keep sharing!! Nour desperately needs you, this is a matter of life or death!!!
