Hi all, as you know now Shaima and Muhammad are Wafaa's sister and brother, and they urgently need to evacuate all 10 of their children as soon as possible before they can even think to evacuate themselves and their respective spouses. This family was personally added to the vetted spreadsheet by @el-shab-hussein as family number 260, so please don't hesitate to donate.
Yesterday, Wafaa received extremely worrying news about Muhammad's newborn Salem, who is just weeks old, is suffering from severe malnutrition. Manal, Salem's mother, could not produce breast milk because of stress and malnutrition herself, and the family is forced to feed Salem cooked flour slurry, which is an extremely non-nutritious and even dangerous diet for a newborn. On top of this, because Salem was born in a field hospital, he was not able to be vaccinated; his immunocompromised status makes the current active polio epidemic in al-Mawasi camp extremely dangerous for him.
We helped raise enough money in the past two days for Zeina, who is 15 years old and has been taking care of the younger children since the invasion. Let's now try to raise enough money so Zeina's twin, Malik, could also be evacuated. As a reminder, Salem is suffering from anemia and severe malnutrition from not getting milk for days while Salma, the 5 year old daughter, suffers from intestinal infection and skin rashes have not abated for weeks now. Zeina cannot take care of all 4 of her younger siblings all by herself when time comes to evacuate.
Imagine living for months on the same meal، no variety, no choice, just survival.
We are growing up with the taste of hunger. This isn’t a scene from a movie, this is our reality in Gaza.
We are enduring the most brutal, relentless, and longest siege humanity has witnessed. We are dying slowly, every single day.
My family and I are in urgent need of your help.If you can donate, please do. And if you can’t, please share it might reach someone who can.
Your share can save a life.
Your silence won’t.
This is not just a post. This is a cry for help From Gaza, with pain. 💔🇵🇸

On the seventh of October I am teacher Mahmoud Atta. I work as a teacher teaching secondary school students.
On October 7th, I was getting ready to go to school. On October 7th, while I was getting ready to go to school, my life was completely turned upside down. Israel declared war on Gaza. After that, they announced their entry into the roads and cities and forced us to leave the city from Khan Yunis to Rafah
.
We passed through a road called the Road of Death. Tanks were everywhere. Bullets were raining down. We passed through a road called the Road of Death. Tanks were everywhere. Bullets were raining down. If you survived, your brother would not.
We've all seen the end of the world movies on the big screen. We have all seen end of the world movies on cinema screens, but what we saw was real and not imaginary. I wish it was imaginary.
We finally arrived in Rafah Finally we arrived in Rafah, the safe city as it is called, but where to go? The sea is behind us, the weather is freezing, and the borders are closed with Egypt on the other side and Israel on the third and fourth sides. I found myself making a tent out of nylon for myself and my family.
No water, no electricity, no food, no place to go to the bathroom, no life. I wish I had died sooner.
We returned after a long time to our city.After a long time, we returned to our city. The first sight was that a giant monster had entered the city and left it in ruins, so much so that I did not recognize my house or my neighborhood. Oh my God, is this Khan Yunis?
fI searched to find my home, to find my apartment, which contained my memories and my most beautiful days, destroyed. I searched to find my home, to find my apartment, which contained my memories and my most beautiful days, destroyed.
Today I stand before you to search for Today I stand in your hands to search for any help to restore myself again thanks to you.. I am waiting for your help
“In the past, my life was simple and peaceful, filled with love and safety. We were a family that lived together happily, sharing dreams and laughter. I never imagined that one day just dreaming of peace would feel like a luxury, and just surviving another day would become an achievement.
Today, I’m Mai, standing here with a broken heart. My mother is sick, and we don’t have the resources to help her. I am also unwell, but I have to be strong because my mother and brother need me. My older brother is badly injured—he used to be so strong and full of hope for the future, and now he needs someone to stand by him. We have lost everything: our safety, our home, and even the little things that used to make life beautiful.
I miss my old life. I miss the days when we were just a happy family, free from fear and pain. Back then, we looked forward to the future with hope, but now our dreams are simple—just to make it through another day together.
I’m reaching out for support. We’re fighting every day to survive, but we need someone to stand by us, to give us hope that better days are possible. Every bit of help, every prayer, and every kind word means the world to us. Please, share our story.” “Let’s reach $2k! We just need 25 people to donate $20 each. We can do this!” donate what you're able to or 5$ AT LEAST to her gofundme . for people in countries with weaker currencies, her paypal is also available and they accept any transfer amount. and i know you all afford to give away at least 1$ !

Wafaa has made the difficult decision two days ago to raise her campaign goal from €50k to €60k, because of a series of aggressive iof bombings in Khan Younis that started in the early morning, extremely close to where Wafaa's children and grandchildren were (details linked in the post). They desperately need money for food and supplies for relocation to a safer place to live.
Wafaa has been largely bed-bound for the past two days because of paralyzing fear for her family's safety but also because of her own debilitating illness. As many people know, Wafaa evacuated for her own health in November of last year to get treatment. And yet Wafaa is now skipping medication and doctor's appointments for months just so she could send all the money she earns back to her family. It is up to us to help them raise whatever we could to lessen Wafaa's burden.
Here is a message Wafaa has sent to me to relay to all of you:
"Evacuating by myself was the hardest thing I had done. After going to Egypt, I suffered a lot in loneliness during my illness. Feeling pain and not being able to talk to anyone about your pain, so you feel lonely and alienated when you suffer and do not have money for treatment. It's hard to pay money on a house that I could live in. You always feel the desire to embrace your family and smell their scent, and the most difficult thing is to hear on the news about bombings near them. When you struggle to reach them but are unable to reach them due to the lack of means of communication. You stay up all night exhausted and tired, crying alone and in pain alone. I don't like to explain this pain to anyone. But this is my reality for months now.
I'm really very tired and I'm trying to get back to my strength, because I want to be strong to make a post about my children's campaign, but also my brother and sister's campaign." (more about Wafaa's brother Muhammad and sister Shaima here! campaign to be released after this current one reaches its goal)
Please continue to support Wafaa's campaign by any means you have. Wafaa's campaign has been seriously stagnating, at certain points yesterday the campaign would be stagnant for more than an hour at a time. Please donate to the best of your ability.
Once you've donated, there are two currently open raffles for Wafaa that you can participate in:
Opportunity to win a beautiful journal hosted by @turian (more details for receipt submission at @journalsforpalestine), for a donation more than €5, enter before July 31!
Opportunity to win a cozy crocheted sweater handmade by @terroristiraqi for a donation more than €5, enter before August 4!
Israel has destroyed every university in Gaza but despite that, many students have continued their education thanks to Palestinian universities in the West Bank
We live in the midst of the ongoing hellish war in Gaza, trapped between walls of fear and despair.
We struggle daily to survive in an environment filled with threats and dangers.
We are originally from Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, but at the beginning of the war we were displaced several times without any shelter. Our house was completely destroyed, and we are now homeless.
We urgently appeal for your moral and financial assistance to cover the necessary costs for escaping to a safe environment, where we can build a better future for our children and ensure our family's safety.
We are in desperate need of your support. Any donation, no matter how small, can help save our lives. Thank you for your attention and support during these harsh times.

Imagine this:
It's a place where the living reside, but they're dead! They're doomed to die, either quickly through direct targeting or slowly due to the absence of vitality in their city
Wherever you turn, you find nothing but death, displacement, homelessness, destruction, hunger, thirst, ignorance, disease, and rampant infection.
It's my city! It was fully with life until the butchers passed through it! Since the beginning of the massacres, I've been struggling to save myself and my family.
I am Mohammed from Gaza I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.
a 31-year-old living amidst the war in Gaza, a place deeply affected by conflict and hardship. I hold a Bachelor degree in Medical Laboratory Sciences , I graduated with very good But Unfortunately, I did not get a job opportunity.
my family
Before the outbreak of war, my family and I had a comfortable life in our beautiful home filled with cherished memories. However, since the conflict began, our lives have been turned upside down. We now find ourselves living in a small tent, exposed to the harsh elements and constant threat of violence.
Our home, which once embraced us, is now destroyed It became a remembrance
👉 Watch the video
A picture of me and my family in front of our destroyed house.
👉Our house was bombed in the 2008 escalation and we built it, and also in the 2014 escalation the house was destroyed again and we rebuilt it, and in this 2023/2024 war the house was also destroyed.
We can't stand it anymore
The situation here is dire. Food and basic necessities are scarce, and famine and malnutrition have become rampant. Our lives are hanging by a thread, and we fear for the safety and well-being of our children every single day.
The cost of living here has become extremely high. All of our resources are going towards securing food and trying to escape from disaster, desperately seeking a lifeline.
However, the cost of traveling to a safer area was beyond our means.
Each ticket cost $5000 per person,
a sum that was impossible for us to bear. Now, the border crossing is closed, and things continue to worsen.
We want to collect donations to leave Gaza if the crossing opens
That's why I am reaching out to you, dear friends. Your generosity and compassion can make all the difference for me and my family. Your donations will enable us to flee this war-torn region and start anew, away from the horrors of conflict and instability.
$5 may seem small, but for us, it’s a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists. ❤️
