certainly this is not an exhaustive list, so please feel free to add on other projects or organizations that i didn't include. and as always, please take the time to donate if you can and share. it truly makes all the difference.
its fucked up to see people who are around my age live through a genocide and have to market themselves as someone worthy of being saved to get people to donate to them.
it just seems so dehumanising. like is one supposed to worry about their current conditions or think up new marketing strategies.
no aid has been allowed in gaza in 70+ days. people are starving. it's so messed up to have to market oneself during all this in order to afford food.
it's heartbreaking to see young children going without proper food and nutrition.
please help @abdalsalam2000. he's around my age and has nieces and nephews who are very young. they don't deserve to go hungry. his old gofundme was deleted without any reason and he's trying very hard to advocate for his family's survival. please have heart and help him in WhatsApp way you can.

you guys made luigi mangione trend for days and I need to see the same energy for brianna boston. she is a 43 year old mother of three who ended a phone call with blue cross blue shield (after being denied a claim) “delay deny depose, you people are next” and is now being held under a 100,000$ bond and could face FIFTEEN years of prison if charged. she has no weapons, her record is clean, and yet she is being held behind bars. they are afraid of the public and are trying to subdue. do not let them!!!! be outraged that our freedom of speech is being threatened!!!!! deny defend depose! free brianna boston!
emily gwen, the creator of the sunset lesbian flag that we’ve come to commonly use, still continues to live in poverty.
multi-billion dollar companies have used their design and made profit from it, and yet they have not seen a cent for their creation.
i’ve been friends with emily for years, and i have not once seen them be financially stable the entire time. i’ve seen them homeless, unemployed, starving. right now, they need our help more than ever.
please consider donating to emily’s ko-fi, especially if you’ve used their design to create something and profited from it.
every year after you turn 17 you get further away from being the age of the dancing queen and that’s my least favorite thing about growing up
Woman Reunites With Cat Years After It Went Missing During Earthquake
I know I'm like poor as fuck and so close ro being homeless but with the devastating blow the other night when i woke up this morning for hours I felt like there was another black woman who needed something from me. I messaged a black birth worker I'm acquaintances with and was like there is something on my heart saying to send another black woman like $20 for lunch or something and I thought of you.
Y'all I could fucking scream bc the universe always knows. She knows. She knows when my sisters need help. She told me she didn't even know how she was gonna feed herself and her kids tonight bc her stamps don't reup til tomorrow.
This why I be so mad when y'all try to deter direct mutual aid in favor of these white ass funds that y'all KNOW aren't gonna even think abt black women and kids. Direct aid will ALWAYS win out bc them babies was hungry tonight. Not 3-5 business days later when a fund MIGHT select her name from hundreds to dispense funds.
And before a stupid bitch come up in my inbox again like before and call me a dumbass for being poor and giving money, bitch poor people are all other poor ppl got. We have to look out for each other because the wealthy don't give a fuck. Passing around a $20 back and forth between us when needed is better than nothing and I always rather have a heart for other poor folks than nothing. Someone will always be worse off than me and I have to do my part too.
'“Questions haunt our minds, but no one gives us answers,” 29-year-old Mahmoud Sharfi told me. “Where will we live? There are no homes left in Gaza. Are we supposed to live in tents forever? What about our future? What about our children — where will they study?” (...) The main challenge in Gaza now is to survive the days ahead: how will we live without homes, without resources, and without the basic necessities of life? How will we carry on without our families?'
before nader & his family went back north, we spoke about what comes after. like so many, it was unfathomable to him that he would ever leave his home in gaza. but the wholesale destruction of every aspect of their life, and uncountable losses has made both nader & his wife feel there is no other alternative.
their children are painfully young (their eldest is just 7), and in one year, they've suffered acute malnutrition and dehydration, displacement, living in a tent for nearly a whole year, barely escaping death from bombs. returning home for them meant returning to ruins & the daily battle for just basic supplies hasn't ended.
for both parents, all it means is a continuation of suffering neither can put their children through, especially when there is no certainty of the ceasefire holding. please help my friend & his family to evacuate

Mohamad has endured immense loss and is now burdened with debt while trying to protect his sister and her five children. He desperately needs our help to secure their safety and give them a fresh start.
We’ve reached 18% of our goal (€3,509/€20,000), but there’s still a long way to go. Every euro makes a difference. Every share spreads hope.
This isn’t about names, backgrounds, or beliefs. It’s about humanity.
