hi everyone, muhammad (@zeanyahya5) has reach out asking me to share his family's story to you all. he is a father of two young boys, zean and yahya.
he is currently responsible for their safety during the genocide, as well as for his wife and his two elderly parents. his family has been displaced NINE TIMES, and they struggle every day in the face of death, injury, disease, and lack of basic necessities like food, clean water, and medical care. muhammad hesitated at first to begin fundraising to leave gaza, but after losing friends and loved ones to the genocide, the thought of losing his family became too much to bear.
any amount you can spare to them makes a difference; as of 8/21, he has currently raised only €5,996 of his €25,000 goal since opening his fundraiser in EARLY APRIL. so please, donate whatever you're able, and share if you can't. give muhammad and his family hope that they can reach safety and apply for asylum once they are safe. make a difference in their lives and safeties.
there is something so incredibly poetic about leftists/tankies claiming to care about anti-imperialism whilst frothing at the mouth to stomp on any oppressed peoples that get hurt by a non-western gov.
they have no concept of empathy. all they know is “usa bad,” so they will actively assist and promote other genocidal states as long as they hate the us. its amazing, right?
When people call from charities asking for donations or for me to increase my monthly contribution, I get high off the change in their mood when I can say yes. They always sound tired and hopeless while trying to hide it at the beginning and then they're so energized and I can hear the smile in their voice. It's like "fuck yeah, I did that." I have no idea what the success rate is for those calls, presumably low, I might've just made someone's whole day and helped a good cause at the same time.
Fuck altruism purists. I say it's right and good to feel good about doing good.
P.S. join me and donate to a Native charity this Thanksgiving.
Pre-order will end on December 11, 2024 so get them while they're hot!!
GET STICKERS HERE!!!
100% of funds will be donated to families in Gaza! Check out their fundraisers below, and please consider supporting them!!
Ameera's family: They currently live in North Gaza that has been experiencing dire Israeli-made starvation. Her young kids, youngest of which is 2 years old. She has spoken to me about how she hasn't been able to find anything for her kids to eat, like milk for her baby, and getting funds would really help her afford to feed her family.
Ahmed's and Dina's family: A family with 3 kids and one newborn. Urgently needs funds for medical treatment and essential goods. With winter approaching, these funds become crucial for affording winter clothes.
Rawan's family: $8k urgently needed to help take care of her mother, who needs treatment for a tumor. The funds will also be going to support her family as they await the crossing to open for evacuation.
Alaa's family: She is trying to care for her two very young kids, the younger of which has a skin infection that needs to be treated. She is facing constant bombardment and needs help.
Aya's family: She is helping to take care of 19 family members, including 9 children.
Walid's family: Walid is 3 and has two sisters, Layan (2) and Toleen (6). He is disabled and needs treatment.
Rawan and Yemna's family: two sisters and their father who need access to essential goods to live.
All of these campaigns are equally urgent and I can understand the difficulty in choosing one to donate to, especially if you don't have much to spare.
But it's better to choose one than to let indecision keep you from choosing any.
Also, your one donation won't solve everything (unless you're a millionaire and can spare tens of thousands at a time LOL) so, and I say this in the nicest and most gentle way possible, get over yourself! Pitch in whatever you can spare like the thousands and thousands of people donating to these fundraisers every day, and acknowledge that you can't save the world BY YOURSELF - but with many others acting with you, you can make a difference!
As always, free Palestine and all oppressed peoples of the world!
i cannot draw water 🙃
for anyone who isn’t aware, friendsofthecongo.org/campaigns contains a list of actions you can take to help the democratic republic of congo, including pdfs of postcards you can print and send to a list of tech companies to tell them to stop using child miners AND a letter you can sign and send to your reps (+ potentially incorporate the main points of that letter into any scripts you might already be using for emails or calls to your reps!). friends of the congo also has a volunteer application form and a youtube channel
i request all of you to remain steadfast in your support for palestine. the last fifteen months have been incredibly traumatizing and deadly for the people of gaza. please continue to show your love and support them by doing what you can.
every single hospital has been attacked multiple times in this genocide and the health facilities are incredibly fragile. please help families who need medical help and aid.
mohammed is a disabled child who was denied access to his physical therapy due to the genocide. his mother is fundraising to provide him with the medical help he desperately needs. please help him if you can. he is just . the fundraiser has been verified.
please donate here
It is a tragedy that Palestine is still enduring the same nightmarish conditions that they were this time last year. There has been little to no improvement in things as Israel continues to break ceasefires and block incoming aid as they try and continue their genocide. We would like to once again rally our community and as many others as we can reach to give what support we are able to to Palestine's people.
Like last year, the event will not be a traditional stream fundraiser, rather than pointing people at one donation point, we will be suggesting a number of different recipients for support. However, this year may be organized slightly differently than the way we did it last time; more information regarding that will be shared in the next few days once we confirm our plan. Overall, it's the same idea: all donations to Palestinians and aid groups will be tallied into our grand total for the event.
The all-day, all-weekend streaming event will once again feature a rotation of hosts from Radio TV Solutions putting on all kinds of events. Themed segments, classic segments, crazy gameshow-type beats, chill segments, gaming w/ Da Whole Crew and MORE await you. The event will be hosted at http://stream.rtvsfundraiser.live/. Mark your calendars, tell your friends, and GET READY!
