I feel frustrated and very hungry. My family has eaten nothing but rotten food, did you know that one bag of flour costs 100 dollars?
I'm holding on to the hope that there are people who can help bring some light back into my life. I know that each of you has your own life ‼️💔, your own struggles.
With your support, I can buy a bag of flour to get my family to eat some healthy food, we can create a world of compassion, a world where no one feels like an outcast.
So please donate or get involved. I have started a fundraiser and it's the only way to help my family, please don't ignore my message 🙏😭

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.
imagine how much more fucked up the history of the world would be if eating someone's brains reliably conferred on you their memory and knowledge
