Fadel survived the bombing of his home over 800 days ago, and has still not raised enough money to get to a hospital where they can remove the shrapnel from him. He has raised 25% of his fundraising goal of $60,000, but all of these funds have been used on water, food, medication, and hospital bills. The longer it takes him to raise these funds, the more his health deteriorates, and the more expensive survival becomes. Please donate as soon as you can. Help him stabilize!

This is how the genocidal occupation tries to kill him and other disabled Palestinians every day. When people survive bombings, they are prevented from healing and stabilizing. It is continuous, systematic cruelty on every level. @fadell-aldany needs support to survive this.

My friends, You are my last hope. I am still in the hospital and my health is verv poor. I need money for my hospital stay and my medication You are the onlv ones who can save me. please stand by me.

july is disability pride month. it is also summer in the northern hemisphere, and this summer we have seen record breaking hot temperatures across the globe. it might be apt to remember that disabled people are a population vulnerable to extreme weather, and significantly more at risk of death or health issues during a heatwave. "the global mortality rate of people with disabilities in natural disasters is up to four times higher than people without disabilities." (source). disability may increase the relative risk of a heatwave more than old age, socioeconomic status, and being outdoors (source). even in the places most affected by the rising heat, disabled people are barely included in action plans for public safety, if at all (source). global warming is a an issue that affects a wide range of people, but let's not forget it is also a disability rights issue

notice how its littlest pet shop and not littlest pet shelter, littlest pet adoption center, littlest pet rehabilitation. really twisted.

The world sees statistics. I see children with names, dreams, fears, and hungry stomachs. My children deserve the same chance to live, learn, and grow as any child anywhere else.

The war took away our home, our stability, and our source of income. Today, my wife, my four children, and I survive through the kindness of people who have not forgotten us.

If you are able to help, please do. If you cannot donate, sharing our story may help us reach someone who can.

as a regular donor to Gaza Soup Kitchen I get their email updates, and they said today that while they've continued to be able to expand, donations are slowing down as Gaza gets less coverage. If you have a few dollars to spare, I encourage you to send them here to continue the amazing work that Hani and his team are doing.

This website will be updating information on ways to help for those outside Venezuela. It is in spanish.

Estimates from people on the ground are around 40,000 people missing.

The sheer roundness of this kitten must be admired.
