The UNRWA Is Concerned That If They Do Not Receive More Funding They Will Run Out By The End Of February

[ID: Tweet by @.MothTongue_ reading: "This is urgent! this most vital life-making infrastructure project is now on its 297th day and still not funded. the question now is: are we serious people? there's only 3 days left to fulfill this request!! we need every voice now!" a graphic reads: updated Friday 9/20/2014: $141,946.82 needed daily!! only 3 days left!!" end ID]

You may remember a few months ago when a fundraiser for Gaza Municipality's water project was being passed around. They've just passed their halfway goal, and are in urgent need of more funds to repair the infrastructure that Israel, the US, Canada, the UK et al. have been bombing. Half the wells in Gaza have been destroyed.

Several poets on twitter, including myself and @divyx, have pledged to post scary, unpublished, unpublishable poems if our donations are matched!

I will post my least publishable poem if anyone matches my donation of $100, or if several people donate smaller amounts adding up to $100.

Help Lama's family to rebuild her life

Hello, I'm Lama from Gaza, I'm 24 years old, and my husband Mohammed is 30 years old, we got married in 2022 in a beautiful, warm and quiet

Hello, I'm Lama from Gaza. As you know, we lost everything we owned...our house, our work, our car, and members of my family, and we are trying to survive. 💔😭

Our memories, our home, our lives, everything no longer exists, nothing remains as it was, and now we need your help again. My gofundme campaign has been cancelled, and now I have created a campaign on chuffed to continue and to fight in this difficult life. 😭🥶

With your presence, we will complete our lives and continue.🙏🫂🫂

This was our home before, and now we are in a worn-out tent. Help us ... Our lives have become homelessness, displacement, hunger and destruction.🙏🫂😔

.............................................................

Donate & share my campaign, I need you...🙏🙏🙏

Thinking you can "help" by donating to NGOs as the end all be all is particularly insulting because:

1) my family, and many Palestinian diaspora families, have been donating to Palestinian charities for years and look at where we are at now (ie, the systematic violence has not been addressed AND we already have been consistently donating to make a difference, contrary to what people on here claim we aren't doing)

2) reframing this as a humanitarian issue rather than a systematic violence where a people are occupied by a colonial force

By all means, donate to charities I'm not going to say they're not necessary. They absolutely are. I donate to Palestinian Children's Relief Fund myself. It's a cause near and dear to my heart. However, monetary support and a hands off approach only goes so far and does not address systematic issues that communities face. If all we do is donate, we succumb to an endless spiral of reactive responses to violence rather than preventative.

NGOs are great but to say "just donate" and then ignore the issue completely is incredibly harmful. Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank are PLEADING for you to take action, get involved, spread information. So find your niche and please help! Make art! Attend protests! Hell, even reblogging posts with the intent to educate is useful.

Remember, our goal is short term AND long term liberation! So keep Palestine on your mind! Keep Tigray on your mind! Congo! Kashmir! We need to remember that the world we live in is not ok but it could be BETTER!!!

Donate to Help little children stay safe and alive!, organized by Atef Ayyad

Help me rescue my beautiful family from the damned war on Gaza. My name is Fadi … Atef Ayyad needs your support for Help little children st

I want to bring another fundraiser to your attention. In the link above, Fadi Ayyad has told the story of his family, who lost their home in Northern Gaza and have been forced to evacuate to the south.

Fadi is a high school student who wishes to graduate and further his studies. And his father, Ayman is a well-respected and known Gazan educator, who has lost his source of livelihood during this war.

Their lives have become a constant struggle for survival, from trying to secure what food and water they can to the constant bombardment and raids by the Israeli military which threaten to take their lives at any time.

Their situation is dire. They require $35,000 to evacuate their 8 family members and after 1 month they have not even gone over $1000 yet.

Help this family reach their goal and evacuate to Egypt, where they can get back a semblance of stability and safety. Donate if you can, and please share!

You can also reach Ayman on tumblr @aymanayyad81

Yes, it's estimated that only about ~1000 Christian Palestinians are still alive in Gaza. This article was released beginning of November though so the number may be lower.
