Destruction from Israeli attacks has taken almost everything from him, but he still dreams of a better future for himself and his remaining family ❤️

His campaign is currently a little more than two-thirds funded, with just under €10,000 more needed!

But the last donation was 3 days ago, at time of writing!

Please share what you can!! ❤️❤️ Thank you!!

My name is Mahmoud Al-Halaq, from Palestine - Gaza - I am 29 years old. This message is addressed to every person who carries compassion, kindness, and love in their heart. After 470 days of war on Gaza, the destruction that has occurred, the displacement we have faced, moving from one place to another, and the loss and death of loved ones and friends, I found myself alone without a home or place, and even the prices of food are astronomical. The world has changed so much that life has become gloomy and boring. Therefore, I ask for your help in rebuilding myself, my life, and my family's life anew. You are our remaining hope in life. If there were an opportunity to work, I would not waste a minute nor ask for help from anyone, but I urgently need assistance for my family, my children, and the women to rebuild what has been destroyed and crushed in this devastating and painful war. Thank you for your time and support; we draw our strength and resilience from your support. 🍉

Please donate

Happy new year! Here's the end of the 1953 EC Comics adaptation of Ray Bradbury's "There Will Come Soft Rains," first published in Weird Fantasy #17.

Earlier this year, Elaf's aunt passed away after being hospitalized with a brain stem hematoma. Her time in the ICU has left Elaf's family with $4,000 in medical debt.

Elaf would like to use some of the funds raised through her family's campaign to help kickstart a small business so her family can earn money to help pay off the debt, instead of having to rely solely on aid.

Unfortunately, very few funds are left over after her family pays for their necessary expenses. If we could help get donations coming in more frequently, Elaf would be able to save for her family's business much faster.

If they are able to start their business, it would not only help with their medical debt, but also with finalizing their legal status in Egypt. The aggressive crackdowns against refugees taking place in the country have put them at risk of being deported. Many Sudanese people have already been forced to return to Sudan, including Elaf's brother.

Elaf and her family need our help. Please donate to them so they can create some financial stability to help with these urgent expenses.

Elaf is vetted #165 in the spreadsheet created @/el-shab-hussein and @/nabulsi, and is also listed on sudanfunds.com

Anyone who is committed to solidarity with disabled, chronically ill, and traumatized people:

Fadel ( @fadel-dani ) is in his early 20s. He's chronically ill with thalassemia, a blood disorder. The price of the medicine is too high to afford, and struggles with fainting.

He and his family have been displaced multiple times in the genocide. When his family returned to their home, bombs were dropped on them, destroying his childhood home.

Fadel woke up in a hospital and learned that, while unconscious, he had undergone surgery to remove metal shrapnel that had become lodged in his body in the bombing. Because of the extreme danger and the collapse of the health system, some of the pieces could not removed at their location.

The doctor assessed his health and told his family that he needs to receive treatment in another country as soon as possible. Obviously, doing so safely requires coordination and funds for both travel and the surgical fees once they get to a hospital. He has been living in a tent and trying to raise funds since then.

After fundraising for over 300 days, he had raised €14,500 (almost 50% of the €30,000 he needs). Then April 25, GoFundMe deleted his fundraiser with no warning or clear explanation. He contacted GoFundMe's technical support, but they ignored him and didn't respond.

He has had to restart all over again with a new fundraiser. So far only €3,522 donations have come in, a mere 12% of what he needs.

(All donations were returned to their donors, so if you previously donated, please return that money to him!)

He is still suffering the physical and psychological pain of feeling shrapnel from the Israeli bombing that destroyed his childhood home embedded in his body.

He is badly injured from a bombing, leaving him with fragments of metal in his body. He is in need of urgent surgery to remove them. He struggles with constant pain from this.

He has PTSD from repeated severe trauma, including the bombing of his childhood home while he was inside which left him with the fragments in his body. There is bombing around him, and he fears for his life constantly.

He is starving. Genocidal famine is being forced on him, his family, and many other families in Gaza.

If you have ever reblogged anything about chronic illness, disability, inaccessibility of healthcare, trauma, or food insecurity, recognize your commonality and solidarity with him.

Please donate anything you can.

3,400 people shared my post. If everyone had donated at least 10 euros, I could have raised 30,000 euros (the entire cost of my surgery).
