Due to the HUGE influx of refugees, Hussam’s farmer neighbor had to convert a greenhouse into a shelter as there are no tents!! There is no water or electricity for him to plant anything anyways.
Your donations help keep families warm and fed in the midst of this harsh Gaza winter with little to no shelter protecting them from the elements!
So far these are rough prices of items, so that you may know how essential each and every donation is! Please know that prices change depend on both supply and demand and may fluctuate:
Flour: As high as $70 USD but currently $25 per bag
A 5 centimeter thick mattress: $35 USD/mattress
Blankets: $20 USD/blanket
For those of you who have been following this, my tumblr 'helpgazachildren' was deleted for unknown reasons.

Please consider donating today. Your donations go directly to people in need with NO middle man in between. No donation amount is too little, or if you're unable to donate please spread the link today!!!

A NOTE TO THOSE WHO MAY BE PARTICIPATING IN PRO PALESTINE ACTIONS IN VANCOUVER.
Please, even if you don’t live in Vancouver, reblog to spread awareness. The canadian media isn’t covering the protests, let alone the hostility protesters face, so we can only rely on each other to get news like this around!
A soldier from the Israeli occupation army destroys civilians' cars in Gaza and posts a video of it on his account with sarcastic dialogue.
Daily and documented war crimes at a time when USA, UK, Germany, Canada, Finland, Italy, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Australia suspend aid to UNRWA and punish more than 2 million refugees and displaced people merely for investigations into the celebration of 7 Palestinian employees of the Al-Aqsa Flood operation, while those countries did not act on the killing of 102 UNRWA employees in Gaza due to Israeli bombing.
That is one issue, and this is another.
جندي من جيش الاحتلال الاسرائيلي يقوم بتدمير سيارات المدنيين في غزة ويقوم بنشر فيديو لذلك على حسابه مع حوار ساخر.
جرائم حرب يومية وموثقة في الوقت الذي تقوم فيه أمريكا وبريطانيا وألمانيا وكندا وفنلندا وإيطاليا وسويسرا وهولندا وأستراليا بتعليق المساعدات للأونروا ومعاقبة أكثر من 2 مليون لاجئ ونازح لمجرد تحقيقات في احتفال 7 موظفين من الفلسطينيين بعملية طوفان الأقصى في الوقت الذي لم تتحرك فيه تلك الدول لمقتل 102 من موظفي الأونروا في غزة بسبب القصف الإسرائيلي.
تلك قضية وتلك قضية.
This year’s Israeli Apartheid Week will be the most important since IAW was launched 20 years ago! With the ongoing Nakba at its height, Israel is carrying out the world’s first ever live-streamed genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza while it continues to entrench its 75-year-old settler-colonial apartheid regime against all Indigenous Palestinians. Over the past few months, people around the world have carried out inspiring actions building people power to end state, corporate and institutional complicity in Israel’s #GazaGenocide and contribute to the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice, and equality. With the failure of the international system, under US and Western hegemony, on full display, we will organize IAW throughout the month of March to bring justice from below. Save the date - March 1st - March 30th; an entire month of action and BDS mobilizations to end complicity in genocide, build grassroots power towards liberation and the dismantling of Israel’s settler-colonial apartheid regime. Let’s make this year’s IAW our most impactful ever!
In anticipation of the upcoming Israeli Apartheid Week, BDS has called for an escalation of our boycott campaigns.
To find out how you can join a specific BDS campaign, or how you can contribute towards IAW, you can use the search function on their website to find a BDS-affiliated organization in your country.
If you and your organization have an event planned for Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW), you can register them with BDS here.
Boycotting all products from Israel and from companies profiting off the occupation of Palestine. Here are the official BDS targets. For a more extensive list of products, check in with one of the BDS affiliated organizations in your country (they might tell you, for instance, what processed food items at your local grocery store should be avoided).
Share information about BDS on social media, with friends and family, and with your local community.
For BDS targeted brands, refrain from making or sharing any content that helps that company's outreach and branding. No more memes mentioning the brand, no pictures showing their logo, no more free advertising. Boycotting here isn't just about the loss you as a costumer can inflict on the company by not purchasing their product, it's also about damaging the brand's reputation, and limiting their customer outreach.
I highly encourage you to join a BDS-affiliated org, but if for whatever reason you can't, then these are concrete and actionable steps you can take.
Again, for more information about BDS and Israeli Apartheid Week, you check in with the official BDS website.

She points at her drawing on the chalkboard, which is a drawing of an Israeli warplane dropping missiles over two stick men running away from their houses. The stick men are running towards a drawing that reads ‘ملجأ' (Mal-Ja’) which translates to refuge shelter. There is an arrow pointing to the warplane that reads ‘خطر' (Kha-Tar) which translates to danger.

I still see people defending the IOF's bombing of hospitals, schools, and homes in Palestine by saying, "there are tunnels underneath them that Hamas uses" or "Hamas uses the people as human shields," so I thought I'd try to share something with them.
This is the building in which Saleh al-Arouri, the founding commander of the Al-Qassam Brigades of Hamas, was assassinated by Israeli forces on January 2, 2024, along with six (6) other Hamas members, adding up to seven (7) deaths.
Love them or hate them, that's not my point right now. My point is: look at the building.
Do you notice how it's still standing?
They targeted a single apartment flat, and the whole building is still standing. There are other apartment flats in the same building that look relatively untouched. The building next to it looks fine.
Additionally, only seven (7) people were killed in this strike, all of which were announced by Hamas as its members.
This is the kind of technology at the Israeli forces' disposal. And yet, when they bomb Palestinian schools and hospitals with the pretense of targeting Hamas soldiers, hundreds die and the entire building goes down, if not several others.
Maybe the IOF can be precise when they want to be.
But maybe, when it comes to Palestine, they don't want to be precise.
After the ICJs ruling on provisional measures, the headline you would have expected is that western countries ceased funding and arming Israel.
Instead, they are pausing funding for a UN agency for Palestinian refugees, when there are almost 2 million of them in Gaza who are in dire need of humanitarian assistance as acknowledged by the ICJ itself!!!
All because of Israel allegations that 12 out of 13,000 of the agencies employees MAY have been involved in Oct 7th.
Even IF this were true, this amounts to #collectivepunishment of Palestinians in Gaza and failure to abide by state’s obligations to prevent acts of genocide.
Please consider donating directly to unrwa so they can continue their life-saving work. You can find the donation link in their instagram account or webpage.
Please also make your voice heard; demand your government resumes\continues funding unrwa and don’t stop speaking up for Palestine.
In our thousands, in our millions we are all Palestinians!! 🇵🇸❤️🍉
in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient enough in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.
we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.
at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.
there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.
it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution counts, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.
Did you see the video where Israeli soldiers dressed up like Muslim women and doctors and stormed the hospital in the West Bank and assassinated 3 young Palestinians?
Did you see the bloody pillow with the bullet hole in it?
THIS IS WHO THEY MURDERED IN THAT BED. A paralyzed CHILD named Bassel.
This video was taken just one day before Israel literally shot him in the face in his bed.
Just when you think they can’t get any lower, they do. I don’t care what lies they tell about this child, it is illegal EVERYWHERE to do what they did.
This kid had nothing to do with October 7th. And anything else he did, you simply aren’t allowed to go into a hospital and murder a paralyzed child.
It’s CRAZY that we even have to say this.
And the White House actually defended this today, but it was before this video was released.
Because my last post about this didn't get much traction, I'll say it in a text post.
There is an upcoming global strike for Palestine. February 18th to the 25th. Talk about Palestine and other injustices, call your representatives and email them, boycott companies and limit spending during the week. Get your grocery shopping in now and only buy essentials during the week, please. Limit interaction on posts other than injustices around the world. If you can, skip work or school, though this is a privilege not everyone has.
Edit: It is 18th-25th not 18th-24th!! If you've already reblogged this, please reblog this version instead, edits don't show on past reblogs
February started with false hopes of a ceasefire.
It is now February 15 and the largest medical facility in South Gaza, which sheltered ~2,500 people and had been under siege for two weeks, has been attacked. It is now completely out of function.
We are 21 days away from marking 5 months of ongoing genocide.
Here are several posts with numerous donation links & other ways to help. I’ll also include the tag I use for those posts, where you’ll find individual gofundme’s listed as well. There is also Operation Olive Branch, which has an excel sheet of numerous families in Gaza & how to donate to them + how to contact them. If you can afford it, please consider donating and please, please remember to scroll down to donate to families at the bottom of the list. If you cannot give, please simply share as many resources as you find.
Watched The Texas chainsaw massacre and had some thoughts because my brain is filled with worms

I don't think people truly understand the gravity of Rafah being bombed.
There is nowhere left to go.
The lowest cost is $5,000 USD to flee to Egypt. There has been people paying over $10,000 USD.
That is the only option
Pay or die.
Rafah was the only place in Palestine promised not to be bombed. That promise is broken.
1.5 million people have nowhere to go!
Reminder, if possible, please donate to the PCRF, ANERA, Islamic Relief, Palestine Red Crescent Society, Medical Aid for Palestinians, Defense for Children International - Palestine, Doctors Without Borders, and all other trusted organizations.

You don't have to be the person who feels like they can't help the situation in Gaza because they're thousands of miles away. There is plenty you can do!! SAVE THE ZAQOUTS!!!
i dont think there is a word yet that can describe how absolutely vile israel is. they killed thirsty children by targeting a water tank.
how inhumane do you have to be to support this, to fund this, to excuse this, to ignore this and pretend as if it isn’t going on?
Here’s another fundraiser I can vouch for. It’s run by a friend of my sister’s. It’s for a family of 9, including elders with chronic conditions who can’t access healthcare. Please share widely across social media platforms 🖤

hi everyone, my dad and his siblings have been desperately trying to get my aunt and her whole family out of gaza. I’ve watched him have multiple breakdowns over seeing the conditions they’re living in. they haven’t seen each other in person in literal decades. my aunt’s home in gaza city was completely destroyed and her family have had to repeatedly flee from the devastation. they deserve a better life than this, her kids deserve a better future than this.
it costs an insane amount to get over the egyptian border. please, donate if you can or rb this, it would mean a lot. thank you
Noony_boony from Twitter, aka Noury the jjk fan artist from Gaza, posted a fundraiser to help treat her and her family’s injuries after the IDF attacked them with a tank shell as they were sheltering in a school. She and her parents and brother are suffering from terrible under-treated injuries: lost eyes, broken bones, major damage to tissue/muscles, open wounds, etc. Shes fundraising to send the money to her family in Ireland so they can provide aid from there when the war hopefully ends, I’m posting this here to spread its reach as much as I can.
Please share + donate if you can.
listening to chemtrails over the country club while thinking abt hoffstrahm made me feel so many things
Palestinian women and girls are actively being denied uterine and gynecological care. they have to use tent remnants as tampons and pads. they’re also getting infections as well. israel is actively denying them humanity. they have 0 access to care they need.
