To evacuate my family from Gaza

https://www.gofundme.com/f/ej4d3-help-my-family-to-get-out-of-gaza

Hello this is a legitimate fundraiser!

Ahmad and his family need your help to evacuate Gaza. He has a wife and 4 children trying to shelter amid the rubble. And his father is severely injured with no available means of treating him.

Unfortunately this is not the first time the Al-Zaeem family has lost their home and belongings. As their home fell to Israeli airstrikes in 2021 as well. And in 2023 and now with the invasion into Rafah, they've lost their shelter again.

Their GoFundMe is only at $332 CAD out of $50,000 CAD. Please donate if you can and if you can't please share this!

It was all predicted, and no one did a thing

Rafah is now the most densely populated place in the world, with a population of about 1.5 million and prehaps more in 64 km2. About 25 miles squere.

Hind Rajab was a 5 year old girl in Gaza who was killed while she hid alone in a car, along with the paramedics who tried to rescue her. Yesterday students at Columbia seized the administration building and renamed it in her honor.

a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.

if art gets better traction, then there’s an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.

within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gaza’s fundraiser. it’s a small effort in the grand scheme of things. it’s not a fix it. but it’s something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.

here is bashar. i’ve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all

We see a police force who won't go in to save children from school shootings, but deploy at a rapid rate to arrest peaceful protestors using their right to free speech to protest a genocide

America, you are a war mongering snake eating your own tail. You will protect and support war criminals in another country but let your own people starve and die
