Have you ever felt the pain of loss? Have you lost someone close to you, someone dear to your heart? Have you lost a family member? I hope you haven’t, but for my family and me, it’s our daily reality. Every single day, without exaggeration, we lose someone we love.

Last week, I lost my uncle, my mother’s brother. He was walking down the street, just like anyone else, when he was struck by a missile from a drone. And today, we lost more loved ones—my uncle and his son. They were sitting together in a home that had already been destroyed by the Zionist war machine. Not only was the house obliterated, but its residents were killed as well.

I don’t think this genocide will stop here. Even at this moment, more people continue to die. The number of martyrs has exceeded 50,000, not including those still trapped beneath the rubble. We might be the next names added to the list of the dead.

Please, I beg you, save what’s left of us. Don’t just scroll past this post. Share it, and if you can, donate. Every donation you make can save an entire family from death.

Please all share it and tag your friends.

Please don't let this post stop with you, share it with your friends, tag them, please all of you save us from death

Thanks to everyone who shared this post, but even though this post has received many views in a short time, there are no donations. Please do not leave us alone in these difficult times. Donate even 5 euros, it is a big deal for us. Thank you.

Please, my dear friends, please donate. Please donate to us. We need every donation. Don’t let it stop with you. Send it to all your friends so they can donate. Please donate to us so that we can get out of this genocide.

-Layan and Sarah drew this during the war and asked me to share it as a thank-you to all of you, Tumblr community.-
These drawings were also made possible because of your support. They were safe and able to draw and dream of hope, simply because you stood by us with your words and donations.

Let it be in my own words: I, Engineer Mohammed from Gaza, write:

  • My wife’s first act after the ceasefire agreement is announced will be to walk through the streets, crying.
  • Layan’s first act will be to visit her school, my cousin’s grave, and my uncle’s grave.
  • Sarah wants to stay out in the street until midnight, without fear.
  • Adam wants 100 shekels to buy many things and toys and to visit the beach.
  • And all of them want to go on a long drive in the car.
  • As for me, I just want to cry and sleep for a long time.
  • To cry for dozens of loved ones, and to sleep for the first time without fear—because we are truly exhausted.

Heartfelt gratitude:
This photo was taken especially for you.

Since my first day with you in the Tumblr community, you have been my family and the family of my children. No one hesitated to support us—everyone, without exception. From those who helped by sharing posts and spreading our story, to those who reached out to check on us, supported us with kind words, and many who donated for our sake.

You have been a family to us, and the reason we have remained safe until now. Your support has kept us alive and enabled us to afford basic needs, even with the soaring prices.

Thanks to you, we are closer to safety. My wife, Enas, my daughters Layan and Sarah, my sons Adam and Amir, and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts ♥️.

Now, we are hearing good news about the imminent announcement of a ceasefire in Gaza, as well as the entry of proper caravans for living instead of tents and our destroyed homes. There’s also news about more substantial aid being delivered and heavy machinery arriving to rebuild roads and restore life.

Additionally, there are preparations underway to hand over the Rafah border crossing with Egypt under European supervision. We hope this happens soon so that Layan, Sarah, and Adam can return to school and education after traveling.

With your support, we are just a step away from achieving our goal, as mentioned in previous posts regarding financial details and expenses.

We urge you to share this post as a message of gratitude to you all, and as a final push for this campaign so that we can start a life full of hope with you, as you have always been and still are with us.

This family doesn't have much left to reach their goal. If they don't reach the goal they don't get anything, if the goal is reached their lives are saved. IDF are actually attempting a genocide on the Palestinian people. I have stopped reblogging these because I can't help and tomorrow I will have 50 of these in my askbox, but this family we can help. They are 45 euro short. I will give ten tomorrow. If three people more give ten and one five they are home free and can start a new life in Egypt or Europe. One € is about the same as one $. Lets give these people a hand. Go Fund Me is a trustworthy organisation. Please.

personally, i've been keeping an eye on them as i have friends and family in the area. many people have lost their homes and their entire lives.

one question i have to the people keeping an eye on the los angeles fires: are you keeping an eye on palestine as well? the destruction of gaza is also still ongoing, and many people have died. much like los angeles, the city has been destroyed. are the people in palestine as worthy of your attention as the people in los angeles?

a friend of mine, ibrahim, has been fundraising for a LONG time to support his family -- both his parents are chronically ill (his father with cancer and his mother with diabetes) and he's only 15. they've been displaced many times. despite all his efforts, donations have significantly slowed. please, if you've been affected by the news of the destruction in los angeles -- be affected by the news of the destruction of gaza. help my friend.

please, if you can: match my donation of €10. if you can't spare that, spare €5 or even €1. if you really have nothing to give, share this post. don't turn away from suffering. this is your chance to do something.

Message from Iyad @eyad-anqer

Iyad and his family, survivors of the massacre at Al-Shifa Hospital, are now living under unbearable conditions. They face the harsh winter cold and relentless hunger with patience that few can endure. Their children shiver from the cold, their frail bodies desperately in need of the food that can restore their strength. A family that has lost everything now needs a helping hand to support them through these dire times. Your donation today is not just a passing contribution; it is warmth that saves a child from freezing and a meal that brings hope back to a family on the brink of despair. It is a humanitarian act that makes a real difference and restores smiles to faces worn down by hardship. Do not underestimate the power of your giving. Every donation, no matter its size, saves lives and rebuilds hope in hearts that have grown weary. Donate now and be the light that brightens their darkest moments.

Hello, my name is Hani, I am 26 years old, from Gaza.

I studied social work at university, but due to the lack of job opportunities, I had to work as a taxi driver to meet my needs and those of my family. I never imagined that my life would change in such a tragic way, but everything collapsed when the war on Gaza began in October of the previous year.

Our house was in a remote area near the border, one of the most targeted areas by the occupiers. In an instant, we found ourselves facing the worst nightmare anyone could experience: war, bombing, the destruction of homes, and the massacres committed by the occupiers against our people, including children, the elderly, and women. Death threatened us at every moment, and we were forced to make the hardest decisions.

Since the war began, we decided to leave everything behind, starting with our home, which was completely destroyed, to our previous lives. We began our first displacement journey in an attempt to escape death. We left our area in the first hour of the invasion, and the roads were nearly empty of cars, as moving vehicles were targeted by the occupiers. Our situation was catastrophic, as the roads were filled with destruction, and fuel was unavailable, so we had to walk on foot.

We, my family and I, set off on a long and arduous journey, not knowing when it would end. With us were my parents: my father Yasser (55 years old), and my mother Manal (50 years old), who suffers from chronic illnesses such as diabetes and high blood pressure, my sister Ameena (29 years old), who carries her children Nasser (7 years old), Bara'a (5 years old), and Adam (3 years old). I was also with my brother Ibrahim (15 years old), who was in desperate need of protection and guidance.

The occupiers had imposed harsh conditions on the paths we took to reach the south, where we were prohibited from carrying anything with us and subjected to thorough searches. The first checkpoint we passed was 6,000 meters away from where we were, and after the checkpoints, there was no transportation available, even animals were prohibited. Only a horse-drawn cart was the only means of transportation we could find.

After a long and exhausting journey on foot, we endured the hardships: the children were exhausted, and my elderly parents and sick mother were in desperate need of help. We finally reached the checkpoint, where there were hundreds of people waiting their turn to enter the area that the occupiers claimed was safe. It took us 8 hours before our turn came, and after being checked and verified, we were allowed to pass. We then walked another 3 kilometers before we reached a bus that transported us to Deir al-Balah, where we stayed in a school converted into a shelter for displaced people.

The school was crowded with displaced people, more than 10,000 people crammed into the space. There was no room in the classrooms, so we had to live in the schoolyard under the walls of the fence. We were provided with a simple tent made of cloth and wood thanks to help from some volunteers, but this didn't last long. After a month, we were told we would have to leave the place.

We moved again, this time to the Rafah area, where some organizations provided us with tents to stay in, but over time, we had to leave that area as well. We moved to the Zawayda area in the center, where my family still lives in a school that was under construction. Here we are now, living in tragic conditions, sharing classrooms with five other families. We are 7 members in the same space, facing the daily challenges of life inside this school.

But the story doesn’t end here, as every day is a new battle. We face difficulty in obtaining food, water, and healthcare, especially with my sick mother and my father who needs care. The situation has become more complicated as time passes, and the needs are urgent. With every difficulty we face, the hope that you might help us rebuild our lives after this tragedy is what keeps our hearts intact.

We are in urgent need of your support. Your donations, no matter how small, will significantly improve our lives. They will enable us to provide food, healthcare, shelter, and help us rebuild our lives after this catastrophe. With every donation, you are giving hope to a family living in darkness, and you become a part of our story of resilience and survival.

I appeal to you to stand with us in this struggle. Please click on the link to support our campaign. Together, we can change our reality and bring hope to our children and families.

Iyad asked me to share this message, please read it.

Can you donate 5 euros to Iyad? It is cheaper than the price of a cup of coffee in developed countries. Iyad and his family, who have suffered from repeated displacement and survived the Al-Shifa hospital massacre, are now living in harsh conditions. His family is facing severe cold and famine in a world that knows no mercy. The war has taken everything from them, and their lives have become a struggle for survival. But they are not asking for the impossible, just warmth to help them endure the bitter winter and food to help them survive. They are in desperate need of your help now. Your donation today could be the difference between life and death for them. Do not let Iyad and his family face their fate alone. Be their hope, and give them a chance to survive. Please share this post and don't ignore it.

Help Gazan students study remotely!

Hey all, I wanted to bring your attention to an issue that three Gazan university students are urgently fundraising for right now.

They have still been able to study and sit for their exams online, but with the new semester just around the corner, unfortunately the universities are demanding a portion of the fees in advance to allow them to attend.

**Note that the majority of the progress you see on the GFM pages have gone through daily demands like food and water. These are separate short-term goals**

🔴 Mahmoud Abu Hammam: $12/800. Low on funds! Mahmoud never hesitates to help a fellow person in need, and is very diligent about his education.

🔴 Samir Al-Kilani: $903/1000. Samir has lost almost everything, but he's almost to this short-term goal!

🔴Yousef Madi: $890/2000. I know this goal is farther, but please understand that Yousef has already missed out on last semester because he could not meet his goal in time. Can we make it up to him?

Please boost ❤️

Following up on my post here. In 2-3 days the United States has:

- Declared the events in Sudan as a genocide

- Placed sanctions on UAE companies financing and arming RSF genocidaires.

- Watched over a ceasefire deal between the zionazi occupation and the Palestinian resistance.

What you need to know is this:

1) U.S. definitely ran out of money lmaooo

2) This was always on the table. Biden and Harris could've done this from the start. Instead, they do this 1 week before Trump inauguration to move the foreign policy agenda elsewhere.

The U.S. was performing genocide in Sudan and Palestine simultaneously and intentionally.

Don't you ever dare forget this.

Remember.

My name is Ahmad Al-Ashi, a 24-year-old young man from Gaza.

For years, I have been the sole provider for my family. I live with my mother, who is 68 years old and suffers from chronic illnesses that weigh heavily on both of us. Her condition requires daily care and constant medication, but we can barely afford enough food to survive, let alone the expensive medicines she desperately needs.

My own health is not much better. I suffer from liver disease, and my liver enzyme levels are extremely high, leaving me in constant pain every single day. This illness prevents me from working consistently, and sometimes I even struggle to help my mother with the simplest tasks.

As for our living conditions,we reside in a tent—if it can even be called that. It provides no protection from the scorching heat of summer or the freezing cold of winter. The severe inflation in Gaza has made even basic necessities unaffordable. Food has become a luxury, and medicine feels like an unattainable dream. Every day, we face a battle between hunger and illness, between hope and despair.

Despite all of this, I continue to fight, standing as best I can for my mother and my family, searching for any glimmer of hope that can help us overcome this harsh ordeal. Our story is not just one of pain; it is a plea to anyone who can offer help, to anyone with a compassionate heart who can be the reason we survive this nightmare.

We are in desperate need of someone to extend a helping hand because our lives are on the brink of collapse.
