I would like to share the story of Khaled Smeer, who once lived a stable life as the manager of one of the largest malls in Gaza. In addition to his management role, Khaled worked as an English translator, leading a busy life filled with activity and interaction with others. He lived in northern Gaza with his family, and everything was going well until the war broke out.
As the conflict intensified and the bombings escalated, Khaled’s home was completely destroyed. In a matter of moments, he and his family lost everything they had; no home to shelter them and no resources to rely on. Life was no longer the same. Now, Khaled lives in northern Gaza, where conditions worsen every day. They are struggling with severe hunger, with no access to the basic necessities of daily life—no food, no clothing, and no safe place to stay.
In the face of this tragedy, Khaled decided to start a campaign asking for help. He isn’t just asking for himself, but for all those who suffer like him. Khaled is trying to leave Gaza in search of safety and a chance to start over. However, he faces a significant obstacle: it costs 5,000 USD per person to leave when the border crossing opens.
Khaled’s words are filled with both pain and hope. Today, he is asking for your help, whether by sharing his story or donating to his cause. Every small contribution makes a difference. Thank you to everyone who reads Khaled’s story, and to all those who offer any form of support for Palestine. ♥️

Hello my friends Sorry to bother you, but please bear with me for a little while and read, perhaps the solution is in your hands
We launched the donation campaign over a year ago. We dreamed of escaping the genocide, but unfortunately our dreams evaporated. We only raised a small amount, so our goal changed from escaping outside the Strip to building a simple house in place of our bombed house. But this goal also evaporated because we did not raise enough. Now our only goal is to buy food, restore some semblance of life, and complete the construction of our tent, which was bombed, as shown in the Al Jazeera News Channel video that documented the bombing of our tent and interviewed me in the last minutes of the video. Share our post so it reaches everyone, and donate to us if you can. Remember that my four children go to bed hungry and wake up hungry, and my youngest is Habeeba, 8 months old, who was born during the war in very harsh conditions. Please support us so we can continue the struggle for survival.

Due to some bullshittery on gofundme's part, Musab has lost access to all the funds they had previously gathered and is one of the many Palestinian who now must restart their fundraiser from the ground up at 0.
And due to Tumblr's bullshittery marking multiple posts as "sensitive content" for no discernable reason and targeting Palestinian fundraisers to hide them, I will instead hyperlink to Musab's fundraiser instead of a direct link in order to try get past the flagging.
The amount of times I have gone “Huh, it would be fun if this were canon” and then I remember that I made the story. I can make canon whatever I want and no one can stop me.
Sometimes I'll make a headcanon for a character and then remember that it's my character so it's just canon
Hi, my name is Mosab, and I just want to take a moment to say thank you. Your kindness, your generosity, and your willingness to listen have meant more to me and my family than I can ever express.
When I first shared my story, I didn’t know what to expect. I was scared, exhausted, and uncertain if anyone would care. But you did. You showed up. And because of you, hope feels a little less distant today.
With your support, we’ve been able to find small moments of relief in the midst of overwhelming hardship. Every donation, every share, and every kind message has given us the strength to keep going.
But our struggle isn’t over. Every day, we are reminded of what we’ve lost and the challenges that still lie ahead.
🏠 Still Searching for Stability: We are doing everything we can to secure a safe and steady future. 😢 The Pain of Loss Never Fades: The absence of 25 loved ones weighs heavily on us every day. 💔 Dreams Still on Hold: Survival takes all our strength, but we still believe in rebuilding.
Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:
💛 A $10 donation may seem small, but to us, it’s a lifeline. 💛 A reblog can help us reach someone who can support us.
If you can’t donate, just sharing this post helps more than you know. Every share is another chance for someone to see our story, to care, and to help.
Your support isn’t just about donations—it’s about reminding us that we are not forgotten. That there is still kindness in the world. That even in the darkest times, there are people who care.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping us get this far. You are part of our story now.
With love and endless gratitude, Mosab and Family ❤️
Imagine living for months on the same meal، no variety, no choice, just survival.
We are growing up with the taste of hunger. This isn’t a scene from a movie, this is our reality in Gaza.
We are enduring the most brutal, relentless, and longest siege humanity has witnessed. We are dying slowly, every single day.
My family and I are in urgent need of your help.If you can donate, please do. And if you can’t, please share it might reach someone who can.
Your share can save a life.
Your silence won’t.
This is not just a post. This is a cry for help From Gaza, with pain. 💔🇵🇸

Wonder how long before the Israeli media tries to claim that these folks were affiliated with Hamas.

Hi friends… My friend Saeed needs your help after he lost his home and his job in the genocidal war on Gaza, and with famine and the spread of diseases, all members of the family became infected with hepatitis. Every contribution and participation from you helps the family to withstand and face the difficulty of life under war I am grateful to everyone who supports and shares the story on their page.

I am consumed by fear that my mother might die in Gaza while I am far away, unable to help her. The thought of her suffering alone in such a dangerous place breaks my heart. I feel so helpless and terrified, knowing I can't be there to protect her or bring her to safety. Every day is filled with anxiety and dread, as I hope and pray for her survival amidst the chaos.
