My name is Asma Al-Dahdouh from Gaza. We are trapped between walls of fear, despair, and deep sorrow amidst the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip. I appeal to every person with a living conscience, a compassionate heart, and an understanding of humanity to help us.

Help me overcome adversity

I reach out to you today, resilient and compassionate, facing unimaginable challenges. Life in our area has become increasingly difficult due to the ongoing and escalating conflict. I struggle to secure the basic necessities for our family.

Who is Asma and her family?

I am married to Ashraf Jibreel, who is 39 years old. I am 34 and suffer from chronic illnesses, including thyroid disease and rheumatoid arthritis, requiring lifelong medication. We have four children: the oldest is Oday, 14, who suffers from a chronic illness like mine; Muhammad, 12; Amal, 9, who has celiac disease and cannot eat regular foods, requiring a special diet that suits her health condition; and Hussam, who is 4 years old.

How has war made our lives hell?

We all feel fear, deep sadness, and insecurity from the relentless bombardment and destruction since the war on Gaza began. My young children cannot sleep normally due to fear and nightmares. My family and I do not have a safe place to live; we rent our home, which has been shelled.

 We have fled multiple times due to repeated threats and demands to evacuate. My husband used to work as a taxi driver, but his taxi was destroyed in the war, leaving him unemployed. My son Muhammad, my daughter Amal, and I contracted advanced hepatitis, increasing our suffering.

Due to a lack of good food, clean water, and necessary medication, our condition has worsened. Our lives are threatened either by bombardment and shrapnel or by malnutrition, the spread of epidemics and diseases, psychological insecurity, rampant unemployment, lack of fuel, cooking gas, electricity, and my husband losing his job.

Despite the harsh conditions and ongoing uncertainties, I remain hopeful and determined to provide a better future for my husband and children. My spirit is unbreakable, but we need help from those with living consciences and compassionate hearts to overcome the obstacles we face.

How can you help me?

My family and I aspire to build a better future for our children, ensuring their safety and allowing us all to live a dignified life, feeling secure and stable, and living in peace. Help us achieve this dream through your generous donations, which will undoubtedly have a significant impact on saving us. The funds raised will be used for:

Every contribution matters

No donation is too small; every contribution brings us one step closer to relief and a better future. Even if you cannot contribute financially, sharing this campaign with your generous network can make a significant difference.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Asma Al-Dahdouh North Gaza City.

Please stop and listen.

When I ask you all to do everything you can, it is not a suggestion.

Nour's posts often get thousands upon thousands of notes, however somehow he hasn't received any donations in 2 whole hours and even before then only received them sparsely.

I understand that some people truly, honest to God cannot donate and to those people I hold absolutely no contempt. I myself have no bank account or job so have only been able to donate to a few USD campaigns by converting old birthday money to giftcards.

But, that's the thing, right? Not to over-inflate my own contributions, but despite my own situation I have still been able to donate to some people. So, it's clear as fucking day to me that unless ALL of your money goes to bills and food (streaming services don't count, anything recreational DOES NOT COUNT), that you are all making excuses.

Unless you meet the description I previously described, you can donate to Nour. He and his family are in constant danger of dying. They live in a squalid tent with a newborn baby which they are unequipped to take care of properly because they are suffering under a GENOCIDE. READ THE WORD. READ IT AGAIN. I would also like to add that Nour's other child is also struggling to receive basic resources. A single carton of milk is $60 USD, and diapers are $80 a box. They can barely scrape by with what little money they have. Do not grow numb to it and do not grow complacent because millions of people, thousands upon thousands of newborn babies just like Nour and his wife's little son, they are subject to constant displacement, surrounded by bugs and disease, and are literally in danger of starving to DEATH.

You don't need to buy that new game. You don't need that new shirt. You don't need to go see that (LIKELY BDS BOYCOTTED) new movie.

Most if not all of your spending money right now should be going to help Palestinians like Nour and his family. There is no excuse. Plain and simple.

I have nothing else I can say to make you people finally understand the gravity of the situation.

Help him. Now.

Hello everyone, I've added details to the post so please reblog this version. Thank you.

I just donated $20, can anyone match me?

People in Palestine are enduring the worst horrors possible to be endured by human beings throughout history, and are forced to rely on the kindness of strangers around the world to fill their cups with water and buy their children diapers. I received a message from @noorabd-1992 asking for money for diapers. Every day my inbox is filled with pleas for help; how fucking empty do some tumblr users have to be to assume it's merely an influx of bots and scammers? If you were on Tumblr during the porn bot storm, you know this is nothing like this. If you are paying attention in the slightest to the gravest crimes of the 21st century unfolding at the hands of the American and Israeli governments, you know that human beings are screaming with their very last breaths for recognition and love and LIFE. PALESTINE IS ALIVE!!!!!!! This baby is still alive!!!!!!

My name is Amira, I am 8 years old 👱🏻‍♀️. I spent my childhood in northern Gaza, where I was in school every day, dreaming of a future full of achievements 🏫. But suddenly everything changed. My house 🏡, where I lived with our family, was bombed, and there was nothing left. We will plan your business hard, and I never imagined you would plan to start a monthly days like this. 😞🌹🌹

After the bombing destroyed our house, we had no choice but to flee to the south. We are now living in a tent ⛺ on an empty lot 🏫 with hundreds of other families. This tent has become our new home, but it doesn't look like it. There are no walls to protect us from the heat of the day or the cold of the night. During the day, the sun is ☀️ so hot that it feels like my skin is burning, and at night, the cold 🥶 is unbearable. Sometimes, I cry because of the extreme cold, and I cover myself with everything I can, but it is no use.📢

The school I live in is now a place that holds all our pain. I no longer go to school like I used to. Standing in long lines to get water has become part of my daily life.❤💔

I dream of returning to my old life, where I used to go to school and play with my friends. I used to dream of becoming a great person in the future, but now I feel like those dreams are getting further away from me every day. The war took everything from us: our home, our safety.

Part of our suffering.😞🙏🙏

I live in this place, and I don't know when we will be able to escape this nightmare. I wish I could scream as loud as I could, but no one hears. We are here in the shadows, in a world full of destruction and sadness. All I ask now is for this war to end, and for us to find a way out of it. We just want to live a normal life, away from fear and destruction. 💔🇵🇸💔

Nour’s accounts get deleted as soon as she makes them, but she was vetted by 90-ghost and I know the people who transfer money to her, who have her address, bank info, etc. — which are all very much Gaza-based. GFM used their ID verification software to validate her Palestinian ID too. She’s legit but either tumblr staff itself has decided to delete her or people here are reporting all of her accounts. Please help Nour, she doesn’t deserve this. The funds get used among her whole family, more than just her and her kids.
