you can give seven days of internet connection to someone in gaza for just 6 USD

gazaesims.com is a website dedicated to helping people donate esims for people in gaza. there are multiple options for where to purchase an esim to donate, for the price i listed you want to use nomad esims. then use the promotional discount code from this article (BACKPACKNOMAD) to get $3 off your purchase (note: this only applies to the first purchase you make on nomad) this discount obviously also works on the more expensive options too if you are able to spring for those! also it took over an hour for the email with my information to come through so don't panic if it doesn't show up right away.

ok last thing. but what people fundamentally need to get through their heads is the significance of gaza fundraisers not being the same as like mutual aid when you're helping someone get groceries, because it is a genocide. there is insane deliberate scarcity and prices are unmanageable, because there is nowhere nearly enough for everyone, so only people who can pay can eat. and what positioning individual fundraisers as the only course of action does is quite simply give a tiny percentage of random people whose fundraisers take off the ability to pay those prices while thousands of others can't. and every one of those thousands of people without a fundraiser is suffering through the same inconceivably horrific reality. it is giving a few completely desperate people out of hundreds of thousands a slightly more favorable position in a horrific war economy of imposed scarcity. and what grassroots community kitchens do is try to mitigate in some small way that inconceivable hierarchy of who can pay and who can't, by stretching ingredients as far as they can last to cook meals at large scale and give them out at no cost. and obviously people are still going to send money to their friends and families because this is hell what else are we supposed to do but please just think about that before promoting endless individual fundraisers as somehow the most ethical way to help

Operation Olive Branch has a spreadsheet dedicated to mutual aid, local distro, community kitchens, etc. in Gaza.

This is a good place to start if seeking to donate to a community resilience action. Just contact the group(s) directly to make sure they are still active. Life in Gaza and Palestine is full of uncertainty.

^this is literally what op is saying isn't helpful though. there is scarcity and it is man-made. donating to a community kitchen in gaza will help that specific kitchen and take food away from other people. there is literally not enough because aid is not let in. money will not cause food to materialize in gaza

the best ways to help palestine are donating to organizations, political activism, social activism

also (this wouldn't matter if op wasn't right but considering that they are), the rise of posting fundraisers has killed all other palestine posting on this site. we don't see anything about current events or any other actions. the palestine tag is almost unusable

No actually it is exactly what i am saying that you should donate to community aid kitchens because then they buy at bulk for lower prices and stretch ingredients to distribute meals cooked at large scale for free instead of that same food only being available to a tiny number of people at extortionate prices. with big humanitarian aid programs rendered inoperable by the occuption, grassroots community kitchens are some of the ONLY social institutions left to try to serve people with any measure of equity.

Heyyyyy the boops are cute and all ^^ but- while you're clicking that boop button. Why not click for Palestine as well? It helps alot, keep eyes on Palestine!

Happy Halloween to those who celebrate! and never forget from river to sea, Palestine will be free!

If you have clicked 6 times a day every day since October 7, congratulations, you have donated 2.5 US cents. No, not dollars, cents. Please instead just go outside, find a nickel on the ground, and donate that instead and you'll have made far more of a difference.

And please stop spreading advice on how to help without checking if it's good advice just because it feels good.

LIANNA (1983) dir. John Sayles Lianna’s life is a succession of domestic errands and boring faculty parties, and her heaviest cross to bear is dealing with her waning marriage to arrogant fellow professor Dick. In order to find intellectual stimulus, Lianna takes a college extension child-psychology course taught by Ruth. When Lianna catches Dick having an affair with a young coed, she finds comfort and eventually true love in the arms of Ruth. However, this comes with a price as everything in her life is turned upside down once her friends and family find out about the affair. (link in title)
