hey everyone - its not a secret to anyone that ive been on The Grind for the past few months. at the moment, ive been putting all of my energy into finishing my diploma work, as the defending date is getting really close.

because of that, i wont be able to take june commission slots; however, i still gotta eat & pay bills, so im heavily relying on your help. im letting quite a lot of details down as i dont want to deep dive into my mental health problems, but its... been really bad. thanks to my upped medicine dosage i started properly balancing my chores/work/rest, but my emotional regulation still has been shhhhhiit.

anyway, thank you for reading! spreading the post will help me a lot 🙏

GOAL - €0/150

I am speaking on behalf of @eslamfa1, who has her own campaign for her and her family so they may survive under the harsh conditions in Gaza. She is very thankful for all the support she's had, but she needs more help.

She has asked me to host a fundraiser for more of her family, namely for her parents and siblings who desperately need funds for food, water, and medical treatment. They have been displaced multiple times and have only been able to contact Eslam through an unreliable internet connection.

Here is their story as written by her sister, Aya:

"Hello friends, we will tell you our sad story

I am Aya, an outstanding high school student. I was very happy to be on the verge of achieving my dream of finishing my school studies and achieving what I aspired to, which is to become a doctor.

My family of 8 and a beautiful cat named Katie were living a beautiful and peaceful life, each of us striving to achieve our dreams.

We had our beautiful house in Khan Yunis. Recently, we were celebrating my sister Heba’s fourth place in the Gaza Strip in the Arabic language recruitment exam. Our life was like material and emotional perfection. We did not feel deprived or lacking anything.

My sister Lina is a university student. Her dream was to become a psychologist to help mentally ill people in the Strip.

My brother Ahmed was the most beautiful gift from God. He came after 20 years of being deprived of male siblings. After completing his studies, he became a water carrier and took on a great responsibility beyond his capacity.

We also had two little butterflies, the apple of the house, and Jana, the favorites of their teachers and friends at school.

Then the war broke out and everything was turned upside down. We were forced to leave the house after quadcopters surrounded us, tanks surrounded us, and we saw death right in front of our eyes, but we miraculously escaped.

We were displaced several times on foot. Feet, then our end was in a tent that did not protect us from the cold of winter or the heat of summer, and there were poisonous insects and scorpions around us, there was no clean water or healthy food, so my family and I got hepatitis and a lot of intestinal infections.

We were shocked that our house was bombed and destroyed and the features of the house disappeared from the face of the earth, so we felt very sad and despair took over us.

Life here in Gaza is expensive, we cannot buy the minimum necessities of life, imagine that the price of a kilo of tomatoes is $50, and the price of a bag of flour is $200, life here is like a famine! My father is a nervous patient and my mother suffers from chronic pressure and they need continuous treatment and medications. We suffer from bringing water from long distances, and from the high prices of food and cleaning materials and water pollution. What we have suffered most in this war is the loss of members of our family, and this is the hardest thing we have been through. We have lost 20 members of our family. Please help us bear the very high cost of living until we evacuate from Gaza and save our lives. The cost per person is $5,000. Help us, you are the only hope left."

These are some of the photos she's managed to receive of some of her family (Aya, Ahmed, Hala, Jana, and their cat) and of the conditions of the areas they've been displaced from and to:

Note: Due to mentioned lack of internet connection, Eslam has not been able to receive more photos yet. There will be more updates to come when, hopefully, more communications are made.

PLEASE DONATE !!!!! Aya, Lina, Ahmed, Hala, jana, and their parents' well beings are at stake! Starting goal is $10,000

So far, there's only been $1,844 donated to Aya's gofundme, and while we are grateful for what we've re4cieved so far it is neither enough to cover the costs of living in the Khan Younis camp nor is it currently accessible!

gfm has been pausing transfers to many Palestinian relief effort accounts, our own included, despite abiding by their guidelines. Hopefully, I will be able to sort it out soon and unpause transfers but in the meantime I've made an additional fundraiser on the much more Palestinian friendly service Chuffed (As I've heard from Eslam).

Please place donations here for now so that the Gheelans may get the funds they need!!!!

and with the news that the rafah crossing will be opening we need more donations for aya and her family can safely cross!!! And for continued living expenses as well ofc

no real way of paraphrasing it, my friend kole is in a very precarious situation right now and i would like to help her. please read the gfm's description.

every donation above a 50$ will get you a fully rendered work of one character, 100$ - of two, etc. smaller donations are just as appreciated and will result in sketches, plain and colored.

kole is one of my best friends and seeing her and her family like this destroys me. any, any help is welcome: please share this with whomever you can, with people who are in the means of donating especially. if all of my followers donated 5 bucks they would be way over the goal. thank you all for being here.

rules for commissions + more examples undercut and in my #yaurt tag:

i need 50 more dollars by monday + ideally a little more to cover the taxi fee so ill keep these open for a bit. dm me a screenshot of your dono and whatever you want drawn and ill get to work. this is really important. thank you.

hi! so in case you haven't noticed there's been a general lack of... uh... art, lately. needless to say I've been really busy with my studies... that and I made the decision to transfer to art school after a little mental breakdown at the end of my last semester. happens.

thankfully, I've been accepted to my school of choice, and get to stay in a state where I can stay on HRT! ...unfortunately now I have to pay two separate deposits by May 1st! haha. hm.

my family is helping a little but my parents are both disabled so I am definitely going to need to supplement things. On top of the housing and tuition deposit I need to pay a chunk of the tuition for the college I'm currently attending, so I'm looking at about $500 USD for the first milestone. If we could get more than that I'd be super appreciative but that alone would help massively.

That being said, I'd like to incentivize things a little bit!! For every $20 donation or higher, you'll be entitled to a commission of your choosing!

important to note but obviously I won't be able to get to these right away, the queue will start up as soon as I'm on summer break (around the middle of May) on a first-come first-serve basis.

any help would be much appreciated, and I know we're all broke as hell so feel free to just reblog if that's all you can do!! love u all. expect more art soon. mwah
