I think this is an incredibly important video to watch
this year while we all celebrate pride month and celebrate ourselves as well as those who came before us and paved the way for us to do so, we must also think of those in gaza, queer or not, who live every day under a brutal occupation and don’t have that same privilege. happy pride, and may we see a free palestine in this lifetime.

certainly this is not an exhaustive list, so please feel free to add on other projects or organizations that i didn't include. and as always, please take the time to donate if you can and share. it truly makes all the difference.
I have noticed there have been a lot of people offering artworks or other items to raise money for Palestine lately, so I decided to create a spreadsheet of different fundraising efforts I have found! This includes auctions, commissions, raffles, and more. There are all sorts of items being offered, including fanworks, portraits, jewelry, physical art, and much more!
The spreadsheet has two sheets, one for collective efforts (fundraising events with multiple participants) and the other for individual efforts (individual artists offering their work for donations). I am only including ongoing or upcoming efforts.
So far I have 13 collective efforts and 24 individual efforts. All of these were either found on the @palestinecharitycommissionsassoc page (please give them a follow!) or through my own research. I know there are many more that I am missing, so if you know of any other fundraising efforts that should be added, please send me a link or comment below with any pertinent info. And if there is anything in the spreadsheet that needs to be changed or if you want to assist in building this, please don't hesitate to reach out.
I'm not sure if this will reach anyone, but I hope it inspires some people to donate. The people of Gaza are facing a genocide and your donations can help save a life. Free Palestine!
On Friday, May 24, the International Court of Justice ordered Israel to halt its military offensive in Gaza’s Rafah, open the Rafah crossing, and allow access for aid deliveries and international fact-finding missions.
Pdf of The Question of Palestine by Edward Said
“Do you condemn Hamas?”
Hamas is a resistance movement, and the notion that they are an existential terrorist threat is propaganda to justify the genocide of Palestinians.
We need to reach the goal of 20000$ because my father is sick and needs to be evacuated urgently for an operation. It is not available in Gaza now.
I hope to spread and donate generously.
