Hello, My name is Mosab Elderawi, and I live in Gaza with my family. Life here has become harder than I ever imagined, and Iām writing this with hope in my heart that you might hear our story.
The ongoing war has devastated my family. Weāve lost 25 family membersāeach one a beloved part of our lives, taken too soon. I miss them deeplyātheir laughter, their presence, their love. Every day is a reminder of this unimaginable loss.

We are now facing daily challenges to surviveāthings that most people take for granted, like food, clean water, and a safe place to sleep. The harsh realities of life here have replaced our dreams with the constant fight for survival.
š Lost Stability: The war has left us without work or a stable source of income. š Basic Needs: Food and water are becoming harder to afford with rising prices and scarce resources. š Dreams on Hold: Like so many here, my familyās dreams have been replaced by the need to simply survive. š¢ Unimaginable Loss: Losing 25 loved ones has left a void that can never be filled.
Iām sharing our story with the hope that someone out there might care. Even $5 can make a big difference for us, and if youāre unable to donate, just reblogging this post can help spread the word.
Your kindness, no matter how small, is something weāll never forget.
Your support is not about changing our entire situationāitās about giving us a little relief, a little hope, and a way to keep going. We are not asking for much, and we understand if you canāt donate. Sharing our story is just as valuable to us as a donation.
Thank you for reading this far. It means the world to us to know that someone is listening. Your kindness gives us strength and helps us believe in a better tomorrow.
With all our gratitude, Mosab Elderawi and Family ā¤ļø

Hussam managed to put together 100 packages of vegetables for the families in Rafah camps. They were happy about this because vegetables are quite expensive in the markets.
The packages includes tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, lemon, and jalapenos.
Thanks again, everyone, for your continued support. Donate here to make a direct impact to people in Rafah camps with NO middle man in between.

have you heard about what happened to mai rajab?
this is so so sad oh my gosh.
I saw people do this & adopted it myself, and itās actually been super helpfulāset a daily reminder to do your arab.org click of the day. It has been said ad nauseam at this point, but if each person in the thousands of people who engage on palestine posts clicked on this, weād be raising thousands in revenue towards humanitarian aid. Donāt think your one little click is unnecessary. It adds up fastābut only if you actually do it.
A lot of people asked how they can help if they donāt have funds to spare. This is the most passive way to raise donations towards Palestinian aid.

in regards to the international court of justice ruling in favor of south africa's case, PLEASE do not fall into imperialistic pessimism. this is an unprecedented moment in history. even if the icj doesn't have absolute power to dismantle colonial forces (which no institution in the world has), even if there's still a long way to go between this ruling and a ceasefire, even if there's still so much to be done, this is the first time the occupational forces in palestine have been faced with this amount of international opposition, and it is strong international opposition that causes colonial forces to fall. do not fall into the "this is a theatre", "this is just symbolic", "this means nothing" discourse. bringing about freedom to palestine, and all colonized nations and peoples, includes judicial bureaucracy just as much as boycotting, violent opposition, blockades, sanctions etc. there has to be an official international position on the matter, and this is it. the icj ruling won't stop the occupation forces, but without this ruling things would be that much harder for the palestinian cause on the world stage. let's keep going from here.
Rashida Tlaib has set up a petition to send to the White House to recognize and stop the ethnic cleansing and forced displacement happening in Gaza. If youāre a US citizen please sign. I have no illusions that this will change policy, but the public outcry against their actions must continue. We will not be distracted or discouraged from continuing to object to these humans rights violations.

Hey queen. You seem v knowledgeable about pro-Palestinian charities. Would you mind making a post or giving some info on which ones are really effective and honest abt their work? I've been hearing some problematic things about UNRWA, and Save the Children seems to be doing very little (as far as I am informed). I donate to PCRF and MAP, but don't know any other, smaller orgs that may also need more awareness? Thanks ā„
hello, thanks for sending this in. so i've been trying to find smaller orgs for palestine that are specifically for helping gaza, but the issue is not much aid is being let in. PCRF is a really good org in my opinion, I'd always donate to them regardless.
There's also the Palestine Museum, which does really great cultural preservation work.
Palestine Legal is a legal aid group that helps palestinian and palestinian advocacy facing legal challenges.
Palestine Action is a direct action group that helps do disruptive protests.
Samidoun helps palestinian prisioners around the world and keeps and eye on them.
Within Our Lifetime is an NYC based palestinian led organization.
Palestinian Youth Movement is a favorite for Turtle Island led Palestinian resistance.
Palestine Feminist Collective is a Turtle Island feminist movement that works to spread culture and information.
Good Shephard Collective seems to be doing good work in Bethlehem as well.
I would mostly look for mutual aid groups for people from Gaza if you want to donate to them. Aya Ghanamah retweets mutual aid groups a lot.
I might share more groups in a second reblog after I hear back on best ways to help them.
yall better be just as outraged about this as you were about notre dame

A trope that gets to me: 'guard dog' character and their partner who are both fully aware of it and honestly don't care/kind of like it. Someone says "call your guard dog off" and their partner does call them off. That person, their 'guard dog', is someone who is unreservedly, irrefutably loyal to them. Someone undoubtedly dangerous who is willing to kill, to maim, to obey, simply because of their love for one another. There's no manipulation involvedā it is loyalty, brutal, dogged loyalty. And it goes both ways.

Hello, all:
Swallowing my pride and asking for help is a very hard thing to do, and I hate that Iāve had to do it so often in the last year. But unfortunately, for the happiness of me and my family, itās something that I will have to do again.
For anyone that doesnāt know -
Since the day he was born, my son Julian has had a smile on his face; heās a bright, loving child who never stops laughing and running around.
In the spring of 2022, however, that changed. Suddenly, he was in constant and agonizing pain - he stopped smiling, stopped laughing, stopped running around, stopped being the little ball of sunshine weāve always known him to be, and couldnāt make it from his bed to the sofa without being carried.
He couldnāt even make it through a single night without waking up screaming in pain.
He was four years old.
After months of tests and chronic pain, Julian was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and has been going throw daily chemo and other cancer treatments since then.
Being a single parent, I havenāt been able to work; Iāve tried my best to save as much as I can, but obviously money has been tight. We are based in England at the moment but have been planning on moving to the United States as soon as the doctors say it is safe for Julian to travel to be close to my own family. Unfortunately, the various travel costs are too high for us to afford at the moment.
These costs include sending our belongings overseas, the travel itself, and - most importantly to Julian - shipping his beloved cat.
Itās been hard to properly explain to Jules what heās been going through - heās autistic, and oftentimes canāt comprehend why heās feeling the way heās feeling. Because of this, the emotional support Julian receives from Fabien (shown with Julian above) has been just as important of a support system as our friends and family.
Fabien, lovingly called āBaby Catā by Julian, has been with him through it all; the idea that Iād have to separate them solely because I canāt afford to ship him breaks my heart - I need to somehow find close to $6,000 to afford all the travel costs.
My paypal is here and my ko-fi is here.
Any and all assistance that anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated - even if thatās just sharing this post.
Hey guys, happy black history month!
I hate to beg but I recently went back to college and Iām paying super high interest rates for loans because Iām an immigrant and I donāt have a super lengthy credit history.Ā
You might recognize these from edits/pinterest/telegram etc. I made them! So if youāve ever wanted to support my work, you can share this post around and/or tip me on ko-fi. anything is super appreciated and goes towards my student loans ā”Ā
As an Iranian girl, I want to tell you, Mahsa Amini's hijab was much more decent than my own everyday outfit. It might've been me, my mother, my sister, my friend or anyone.
Then they kill 100 more to prove they didn't kill 1? Where is the justice in that? Who can we go to when the police is the murderer?
As a feminist, as a human, send our voice across the world. We're fighting, and this time, we are not giving up!š®š·š
