hello everybody!

shaima and her family, whom i have been working with for over a year now, needs funds to keep the room that she and her disabled family members are staying in.

this room is extremely important to them, because shaima's grandmother has alzheimer's and uses a wheelchair, and shaima's 7 year old nephew is chronically ill with a kidney disease. these struggles are hard enough for anyone to deal with on top of experiencing an ongoing genocide and navigating the stressors of this new version of life.

we need to raise a total of $445 by march 03 in order to pay their rent on time. anything and everything helps us - we would deeply appreciate your support!

link to support our friends abroad is here. you will either need a paypal account or a card of some sort to donate money through this link. however, if you encounter any trouble, feel free to shoot an ask or a dm!

$43 to keep a gazan child warm for the winter!

hello everyone! i'll keep things brief. our relief aid coordinator on the ground, ahmed, would like to buy winter clothes for the children in the two refugee camps he works in.

the estimated cost for one child's winter coat is $43, and there are 30 children in the camp in need of clothing, bringing us to a total goal of $1300. one of our team members will be contributing $100 and covering the bank fee, which lowers the amount we need to fundraise to $1200.

this is the second of 3 campaigns, aiming to raise $400 to buy clothes for 10 children.

if 30 people contributed $40, or 60 people contributed $20, we would be able to make our total goal in no time!

previous campaigns & proof of donation from the last year and a half

if you want to speak to or vet ahmed directly, send us a message and we can get you in contact on whatsapp

thank you all for your generosity! we couldn't do this without you.

hello everyone! we are excited to bring you this update!

for around two months, we have been fundraising for the materials to build tents/shelters for the influx of refugees in ahmed's camp. we split the campaign into five parts to shelter twenty families; you can see our campaign posts here (part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5).

thanks to your generous donations, ahmed's team has successfully built shelters for the newly displaced families in his refugee camp!

clearing the ground and setting up the tents:

these are not ready-made tents, as ready-made tents are quite expensive in gaza; instead, ahmed and his team built shelters out of cheaper plastic tarps. this is why we were able to shelter so many families with this!

detailing the interiors:

originally, we only intended to build the shelters; however, with everyone's generosity, we were also able to obtain new bedding as well! thank you so much to those of you who helped us surpass our original donation goal!

final results:

although we try to avoid identifying pictures for the sake of safety and privacy, if you would like additional proof of donation, send us a message! we would be happy to get you in contact with ahmed on whatsapp.

and finally, a huge thank you from shimaa and ahmed...

we are truly, endlessly grateful to everyone's generosity in making this possible. this wouldn't be possible without you.

(p.s. accounting & financing details beneath the cut! )
