Raneen, @a00h2, is my friend. She is trapped in Gaza, Palestine, with her family. She lost everything in the bombings and is now in poverty and homelessness. Her 1-year-old baby is in a respirator; he has very dangerous lung cancer. There is no treatment in Gaza that can save him. She needs to pay $700 more before next Thursday to get the baby out of Gaza, so he can receive proper treatment.

My friend doesn't have that money. She can't help him alone. Please, I beg you, don't just reblog. Donate, whatever you can. $40, $20, $10, $5, whatever you can, it will all be useful. Thank you so much.

Her account is vetted by @90-ghost here, by @gazavetters (#576) , and by @bilal-salah0. This Chuffed fundraiser goes directly to her; for transparency, you can dm @a00h2 if you want to confirm it.

IMPORTANT!: WHEN DONATING TO THE CHUFFED, PLEASE DO IT THROUGH PAYPAL IF POSSIBLE. Other methods are still ok, but they risk taking too long to arrive.

PLEASE, HELP SAVE THE LIFE OF MY FRIENDS' BABY!!

$4,700/$5,400

I'm here after a long break, due to many circumstances, it's been a very difficult period, guys.

I hope everyone is well and safe, I miss you, I am here now because I need you at this time, as you know, my family and I live in a house we have rented and at the beginning of every new month I collect the costs here with your help, so that I can pay the rent and maintain the shelter that shelters us all.

I've done it many times, and you guys haven't let me down, but honestly I don't get much attention lately, and that's why I'm not always active here, but I love you from the bottom of my heart. My family has always been fine thanks to you, please guys, we need you so much now.

I only need $700 so I can pay the rent and keep my family safe.

Any delay from the payment date will be kicked out on the street homeless, life is very, very difficult, I use you guys.

Payment date will be on 10/06/2026

I will not prolong much, this is the purpose of the publication, as for the circumstances I went through, I will not bother anyone here, whoever wanted that, I can write to him privately and reveal all the details, I was injured two days ago, and I hope to be fine in the coming days.

Today, two rockets struck a house near our tent. My children were terrified, trembling and crying uncontrollably. They are living surrounded by danger, explosions, rats, insects, and constant fear. Instead of enjoying a peaceful childhood, they are growing up burdened by fear and trauma.

As a mother, it breaks my heart to see them suffer while I am unable to provide the safety they deserve.

Please help us leave Gaza and reach a safe place. Every donation and every share gives my children a chance to live with safety, peace, and hope. 💔🙏🏻https://chuffed.org/project/173104-save-my-family-in-gaza

Diala never imagined her life would turn into a daily fight for survival.

Diala is 31 years old, from Gaza.

She graduated in Health Administration in 2017, got married in 2019, and is a mother of three:

Hisham (6 years old), Moamen (4 years old), and little Taj… her miracle baby.

Before the war, her life was stable:

a home, a car, jobs for her and her husband, and a sense of security.

But in a moment… everything was lost.

With the war, Diala lost her home, her stability, and her livelihood.

As famine spread, her health severely declined due to malnutrition, leading to kidney stones and the placement of a stent to ease her pain.

Despite everything… she was pregnant.

On May 7, 2024, Diala suffered a serious head injury, resulting in a skull fracture while she was in her fifth month of pregnancy.

Doctors faced a heartbreaking decision… her life or her baby’s.

But against all odds, Taj survived and was born—a symbol of life in the midst of suffering.

Today, Diala and her family of five live in a tent that cannot protect them from the heat of summer or the cold of winter.

And her struggle is not over…

💔 She urgently needs two surgeries:

The first: reconstructive surgery for her head injury

The second: removal of kidney stones and the stent

💔 Her family also needs at least $50 per day just to cover basic food and essential needs.

Still, Diala continues to hold on.

She is not asking for luxury… only:

a safe place, a chance for a dignified life, and a stable source of income to protect her children from hardship.

Her goal is to raise $25,000

to start over… and rebuild a life for her family.

🤍 This is not just a story… this is real life

🤲 Any support, no matter how small, can make a real difference

📢 Please share this story—someone out there may be able to help

i can’t be the only person who’s noticed a steady decline in tolerable, well-written women in fanfiction (referring to both OCs and f!reader categories alike). i’ve talked about this already, but the "coqeuette, bimbofied, daddy’s little princess" trope has taken over my entire feed. it’s a freudian example of one of the many international consequences of lana del rey and choice feminism. but it isn’t just that trope entirely. it’s the half-assed attempts at different archetypes made to write the reader off as an empowering, dominant badass or sultry femme fatale, and failing because it all falls flat with snarky one-liners and glorified combat instead of any actual substance.

mind you, the same authors will praise male characters like leon kennedy and joel miller for being well-written and criticize women who goon to them without "appreciating their depth", as if PTSD is some generational, ground-breaking, never-before-seen character trait.

i’m looking forward to an increase in—not only well-written female characters—but ones that explore actual flaws that make the characters borderline evil. the normalization of docility, obedience, and abusive undertones that are somehow always followed by the same "it’s a kink, don’t be judgemental" excuse, is exhausting.

In addition to Ayla’s ongoing health struggles, she now has to worry about rats and insects. Recently Gaza has become overwhelmed by vermin, which carry diseases and will even bite or eat human flesh. Unfortunately, the only solution available to families is to deploy pesticides around the living space. However, pesticides are difficult to obtain and therefore very expensive in Gaza, about $850 usd for the amount Ayla’s mother Bshaer needs for their living space. Bshaer needs your help to procure this unfortunate but very necessary item, as the only alternative is the increased likelihood of bites and diseases.

There has been no progress on their campaign in several days, and on top of this expense, they still need to treat Ayla gastroenteritis. They are in a really, really tough place right now and they need your help!

Its walls are worn out, and the cold seeps through every night as if we have no shelter at all.

Rodents are everywhere, getting close to our little food and frightening my children in their sleep.

I try to stay strong for them, but fear and exhaustion weigh heavily on my heart each day.

We are in desperate need of help… any kind hand that can restore a sense of safety and give my children a chance to live with dignity.

My pregnant wife was shot in the chest as she prepared to receive our first child.

I never imagined that I would write these words or live this nightmare.

My wife is in her fifth month of pregnancy, and she was trying to live simple moments of joy in the midst of the war. I went out that day to see some of the children's clothes and prepare the needs of our first baby that we are waiting for impatiently.

But instead of returning home carrying clothes for our child, she returned to the hospital soaked in her blood after being shot in the chest.

In moments our dreams and joy turned into fear and terror. We ran to the hospital where she underwent emergency surgery to check on her life and the life of our unborn child. Due to difficult conditions and lack of medical capabilities, doctors have not been able to remove the bullet, and it is still stable inside its chest until now.

If you were able to help or share our story with others, you would have given our family hope at a time when hope has become scarce

Maha and her family previously had a verified GFM to pay for basic necessities like food, medical care, and some form of shelter. Horrifically, the person running their former GFM has stolen from them and hijacked their campaign.

Below is Maha’s new GFM. Her previous GFM was vetted by el-shab-hussein and nabulsi on their vetted campaign master list, on line 163.

Maha has been hospitalized due to serious complications from an infected tooth. She is particularly vulnerable to this type of infection, which almost killed her last year. Thankfully her husband has returned from Egypt, but both he and Maha are unable to work and thus cannot pay for her hospital bills. They are over $700 usd in debt for her treatment and Maha is about to be kicked out of the hospital.

As I said, last year a very similar infection almost took Maha’s life. If she is expelled from the hospital, a worsened infection is an inevitability. She still has a high fever and needs to remain hospitalized. PLEASE help her continue life-saving treatment!!

Current: €1,679 out of €2,176 (1 June)

19-year-old Khalil Al Habil's liver and kidneys are failing. Shrapnel damage from the bombardment that killed his baby brother Omar has gone mostly untreated due to a lack of funds and resources. The ill effects of this damage have progressed to the point that the organs are losing their ability to function. Khalil urgently needs 3 rounds of treatment to combat the effects of his deteriorating liver and kidneys.

We've paid off the first round of treatments but Khalil has two treatments that he still needs. The second costs about $1,250 usd, but we haven’t made much progress in more than a month and his condition is getting progressively worse. We need to meet this second goal ASAP!!!

Current: $10,052 out of $10,407 usd (12 May)

A few days ago, I lost a large amount of blood due to a sudden and severe hemorrhage, and I fainted without feeling it. I was transferred to the hospital, and I did not wake up until the doctors had stopped the bleeding and provided me with blood units and the necessary treatment.

I spent a full week in the hospital receiving treatment under intensive medical care, after my condition and my fetus’s condition were extremely critical. 💔😥

I was discharged from the hospital, but I am barely able to move. I need someone to support me so I can walk. 😢

My fetus, now in the seventh month, is still in a difficult condition. The doctors did everything they could to save him; they gave me injections to stabilize the pregnancy and others to complete the lung development, in addition to many other medications.

All that has happened to me is a result of the harsh conditions we are living in Gaza. 💔😓

Exorbitant prices for providing food and water, and difficulty in obtaining medications and nutritional supplements, and the life of tents that no human can endure, especially with the bitter cold and the continuous rain.

Please… I need medical care, medications, and special nutrition, so that survival may be written for me and my fetus. and this cannot happen without you extending your hands to save us once again. 🙏🥹
