Hey, whoever is sending me messages, that feature is completely broken on my account for some reason, I've never been able to see or read any of them, sorry
My best friend (an absolutely brilliant scientist and compassionate social activist, seriously the best person ever) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family all around the Levant are being affected by the war. I have recently started adding Palestine related designs to my shop and I will continue to do so. Any and all money from those will go first and foremost to making sure his girlfriend gets to America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this.

Thank you to everyone who has helped me fundraise for my friend! ALL PROCEEDS from my shop go to help my Palestinian best friend support his loved ones. I don't anticipate any of my new designs getting approved until after the weekend, so in the meantime I'll start the weekend by sharing what has sold so far this week:
Stickers:
Notebooks:
Shirts:
Magnets:

You can find all my designs here. Redbubble will display them with a random product, click on it to see all product options (shirts, stickers, bags, hats, etc).
Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far!
I hope you are all joining your local campus protests! I know they're in the news less but they're still going strong and putting a massive amount of pressure on universities. I'm seeing more people out here than ever this week!
I realized I hadn't made anything for the protests yet so I wanted to add this simple shirt design. As always ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my best friend who is Palestinian. The extra income will help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
You can find the above here, some examples:

A new edit of one of my older designs. Found in my fundraising shop here (I mostly made this one for stickers but it is also available on a few other things like shirts and tote bags).

Also as usual please feel free to use my art for your own stuff (activism projects, posters, social media posts, whatever), just please don't try to profit off my work.
Some stickers from my fundraiser:

For those who haven't seen my posts yet, my best friend (the best person I have EVER known) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. ALL PROCEEDS from these designs will go to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely and helping his other loved ones weather the violence and financial hardship.
(also sorry for double posting, account is being weird)
This dove wearing a keffiyeh is one of my most popular designs so far, so I've added four new versions of it. Thank you to the customer who bought this dove and four other designs on stickers yesterday! These designs (and a bunch more) can be found here. Available on stickers, shirts, pins, prints, etc (click on each to see more product options).
We're hopeful that the ceasefire will mitigate the harm being done to my friend's family going forward. He's already had some loved ones hurt that this money can help so for now I will continue the fundraising (plus we do not feel safe hoping that the ceasefire will last, unfortunately). For now his girlfriend has remained safe and financial planning for her trip here is going okay. Most of his immediate family is okay (extended family and friends not entirely so unfortunately). I will keep updates somewhat vague to protect their privacy. We greatly appreciate all your help!
A new simple design for the fundraiser, found here. Mostly made for t-shirts (you can change the background colors of the shirts on their product pages):
As usual EVERYTHING I RAISE is for my best friend to support his friends and family in Gaza and the West Bank (and surrounding areas in the Levant suffering collateral damage). At the moment mostly funds are going towards people he knows in Gaza to help them afford basic necessities as prices continue to climb.
I haven't talked about my friend on here much recently, but talking about the people involved in fundraisers seems important to keeping the fundraisers going strong. So I'm going to share a little story that just happened:
My friend has refused to receive presents from anyone since the war began; he feels weird having nice things while his loved ones suffer. Even getting him to accept this fundraiser for his family was a struggle, he's just not good at accepting help. He also won't buy himself anything for the most part.
Well he's very annoyed at me now for buying a new pair of shoes for him (his old ones had 6 inch tears down the side and were actively injuring him). I did relent and give him the old ones back with the best repairs I could manage (they're holding up for now), but he won't accept even the smallest gifts from me unless I let him pay me back for the new shoes, which of course I will not do. This includes the cup of tea I usually bring him at the gym (which was previously exempt from the gift rule). We argued back and forth about this stupid cup of tea for a long time yesterday, neither of us would let the other leave the parking lot without it.
Long story short I flung the cup of tea through the open window of his car as he tried to drive off, and it of course exploded everywhere. He picked up what was left and poured it all over me, gave me a hug and drove away. I don't think I've seen him laugh that hard since the war started honestly.
I love our ridiculous, weirdly combative friendship. He's like the brother I never had. Thank you all for helping me support him.
Here are some other shirts from my shop (my friend is modeling the exercise shirt in the top left, face removed for privacy):

This translates to "Palestine in our hearts". Poppies are common in Palestine and are often used as a symbol, representing the colors of the flag and blood shed upon the land.
As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my Palestinian best friend to help him support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the raids and economic devastation in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He will donate anything his family doesn't need to the Palestinian charities he works with.
You can find this design here, it's a pretty good size and shape for printing as a poster. Here are some various product examples:

I want to share how one of my favorite stickers from my fundraising shop looks after printing (sorry the photo is a little poorly lit). I've bought a bunch of stickers from my shop to test how they turn out and give them to my friends, and I'm quite happy with how well this one in particular tends to print (quality may still vary depending on your local print shops, if your order gets messed up Redbubble should give you a refund or new copies).
As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for my Palestinian best friend to help him support his loved ones. I've just been informed that some of the money I've raised has made it through to people he has in Gaza to help them purchase food, I'm very happy to hear this.
I have a new design that's been stuck waiting on approval for a bit now, hopefully I will have it up by tomorrow. For now, here's a sample of my older works. They're available on shirts, stickers, hats, notebooks, pins and all kinds of other things (selection depends on the design):
You can find my full shop here. To see a design on different products click on the display product and scroll down or go here to browse by design. I try to vary between a wide range of different styles so there's something for everyone. I have 146 designs published and counting, I'm going to keep adding as many as I can until my friend's loved ones are all safe. Thank you to everyone who has helped so far!
ANY AND ALL PROCEEDS from Palestine related sales will go to my Palestinian best friend to help him bring his girlfriend over to America. Any left over will be used to help his family/other loved ones affected by the war.

Starving grad student running a small Redbubble shop (initially for side income, now for fundraising for my Palestinian friend). Made this blog to share my designs, found here: https://www.redbubble.com/people/fairiedance/shopMy best friend (an absolutely brilliant scientist and compassionate social activist, seriously the best person ever) is a Palestinian grad student studying in America, and a lot of his friends and family are being affected by the genocide in Gaza and the fallout in the West Bank and surrounding areas. I have started selling Palestine related designs in my shop. EVERYTHING I RAISE he sends to his loved ones to help in various ways as the situation progresses.Designs not related to Palestine have been removed from my shop for now (probably for good at this point).
