I've already made something similar to this, it seems like a good design for a sticker. The keffiyeh was a gift from the friend I am fundraising for. He gave it to me back in October while I was trying to comfort him, I have worked photos of it into a lot of my designs.
As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my shop are for this friend, to help him support his partner and 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.
The design can be found here. Here are a few sample product photos:

Thank you to everyone who has helped so far!
Here is a small sample of the designs I am raising money with. I have 55 works in my collection so far with more being added constantly (there are two waiting for Redbubble's approval right now). I'm making a point of keeping a broad variety of styles so there's something for everyone.
As usual, ALL PROCEEDS from these designs are for my Palestinian best friend, to help his girlfriend afford to join him safely in America and to help 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 increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. He is the nicest person ever and he deserves so much better than this.
The designs above (and a bunch more) can be found here. Available on stickers, shirts, pins, notebooks, etc (click on each to see more product options).
Thank you to the several people who have bought stickers the last few days and the customer who bought a shirt with the butterfly design!
Here's another compilation of stickers/pins from my fundraiser:
As always EVERYTHING I EARN from my shop is for my best friend, a Palestinian grad student living in America. The money is sent home to support his friends and family in Gaza, in the West Bank and sometimes those elsewhere in the Levant caught up in the conflict (such as the many displaced people in Lebanon). Right now the situation is looking increasingly desperate in the West Bank, 40,000 people are already displaced and we're scared to see how far things are going to escalate. Thankfully most of his immediate family are safe for now.
You can find all of my work in my shop HERE. You can filter by product with the menu on the left side of the page or go here to browse by design. There are also shirts, mugs, notebooks and plenty of other products besides the ones shown here.
Thank you so much to everyone who has helped out! We really appreciate the support.
A few of the designs from my fundraiser. All of the ones I'm sharing today adapt older art. From the top: an edited Henry Meunier print (using a picture of my own keffiyeh), a Warhol inspired design (the keffiyeh comes from an open source photo, the eyes from a vintage movie poster), an edited vintage pulp comic, and at the bottom two Julie de Graag prints.
As usual EVERYTHING I RAISE is for my best friend to support his friends and family in Gaza and the West Bank (and sometimes surrounding areas in the Levant suffering collateral damage).
I have 178 designs and I add more whenever I have a new idea (also open to suggestions). You can find these designs in my shop HERE. To see a design on different products click on the display product and scroll down or go here to browse by design. Most designs are available on a wide range of products (shirts, stickers, pins, hats, notebooks, etc). The cat on the orange background shown here is my most popular t-shirt design.
Thank you to everyone who has helped out so far! We greatly appreciate all the support, and we hope you are enjoying your purchases.
Two more designs on my shop! Favorite poems of mine.
I think this 1897 Verneuil print makes for a really pretty T-shirt pattern! (via "Cicada and Macaw Print by Maurice Pillard Verneuil" Graphic T-Shirt for Sale by FairieDance)
The Palestinian friend I am raising money for is a labor activist, it's how we met. We had already been grad students in the same department for a couple years but we never talked until our school went on strike and he recruited me to help. I've seen him do some really amazing work with his activism, both for our workplace and for other causes.
Because of this, and because pretty much every union person I know is involved in Palestine activism too, I have made a few versions of the black cat/wildcat (an old labor symbol) wearing a keffiyeh for my fundraiser. Here's my new white on black one (found here):
Stickers of the wildcat designs have been a big hit in my immediate social circle since it's such a popular symbol here. Here are my older wildcat designs, which are better for stickers (found here and here):
As usual EVERYTHING I RAISE is for my best friend to support his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant who are being hurt by the genocide in Gaza, the attacks in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries.

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 first and foremost to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely, and after that helping his other loved ones weather this war.
These two doves with keffiyehs have been my most popular designs so far. Thank you to the customer who bought the latter on a pin today, and thank you to everyone who has contributed so far! 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).
I also have a couple variants on the second dove waiting for Redbubble's approval, I will post those when they appear.
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 these updates somewhat vague to protect their privacy. We greatly appreciate all your help!
I took a vintage ornamentation and turned it into a Palestinian flag for my fundraiser. The design can be found here.
As usual ALL PROCEEDS from my designs 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 has also been supporting his girlfriend staying with him here in America these past few months; she is now heading back home. The immediate area around where she is from has been fairly secure recently. We're really hoping it stays that way. It will be sad to see her go, he has been noticeably less depressed with her here. She has been a great comfort to him.
Here is the above demonstrated on a few products:

Sorry I have neglected the fundraiser so much this week, my research has been kicking my ass. I have no idea how the friend I am fundraising for is managing grad school on top of his activism and supporting his family in the face of genocide, I'm struggling to keep up just helping him out. He's like an actual genius scientist though, he's amazing. I do have a couple new designs up now, here's one of them:
It can be found in my shop here on a bunch of different products. Some examples:

Here are some of the pins from my fundraiser:
As usual 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.

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).
