🌿 My Name is Rola, and This is My Story 🌿
I never thought I would be writing this. I never thought I would be begging for help just to keep my children warm, just to feed them one more meal. But here I am, reaching out to you, because I have no other choice.
My name is Rola. I am a mother of two beautiful children, and before October 7th, we had a life filled with love and laughter. We had a home. My children had their own room, filled with their toys and drawings. We would sit together on our balcony, drinking coffee in the early morning light. We had dreams, just like any other family.
But in an instant, it was all gone.
A missile struck. The earth shook beneath us. The air filled with dust and fire. My husband and son ran, stumbling over each other in terror. I stood frozen, the ringing in my ears drowning out my own screams. Our home was shattered—windows blown out, doors ripped from their hinges. And when I looked outside, our neighbor’s house, a place that once echoed with children's laughter, was nothing but rubble and ash.
That was just the beginning.
The bombs never stopped. Every night, I held my children close as the sky rained fire. The sound of explosions mixed with the cries of mothers searching for their babies in the darkness. I covered my children, whispering words of comfort, but how do you comfort a child who is terrified of dying in their sleep?
We had to leave. We walked away from everything—our home, our memories, the warmth of our life before. My children left behind their favorite toys, their books, their safe space. Now, we have nothing.
No home.
No food.
No clean water.
No way out.
I went to buy sugar the other day. It cost $20 for just a kilo. Food is disappearing, and the little that remains is impossible to afford. Every day, I fight to find just enough to keep my children alive.
I am exhausted. I am scared. I need your help.
I never imagined I would have to beg for my family’s survival. But today, I am.
Please, if you are reading this, help us. Help me save my children. Help us find shelter, food, a way to rebuild even a small piece of the life we lost. If we ever have the chance to leave, we need support. If we are forced to stay, we need a home again.
Every donation matters. Every share helps. Every voice that speaks for us keeps hope alive.
💚 Please donate if you can. Share our story. Help us survive. 💚
Hi, I am Omar Hilles

Hello guys!
I have reblogged about this fundraiser a few days ago, but I will share it again!
Ahmed Al-Nabih is a 30 year old Palestinian (@ahmedalnabeeh11). He and his twin brother, Abdul Al-Nabih, wish to look for a significant other and settle down.
Unfortunately, the opportunity to search for love has come to an abrupt end. They are now in a flimsy tent with their parents. There is limited food and water. No electricity. No A/C.
The extreme heat is taking a toll on them.
Especially their mother. She is a kind and loving woman who would love to see her sons happily married. But, she suffers from chronic disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure.
The IDF blocks off aid, so Palestinians do not have the proper access to medication, supplements, and other products that can help with their well-being. This includes insulin.
I have seen scammers impersonate Palestinians on this website. They also impersonate Palestinians with diabetes. In fact, I caught one a few days ago!
The most concerning thing about the scam is that people have donated to it when the money should have gone to Palestinians who are legitimate.
So now you have one. It is Abdul and Ahmed's mom.
I urge you to contribute. Not only will it help them evacuate, but it will give their mom the treatment she rightfully deserves! As writing this, €13,867 out of €30,000 has been raised.
I also request that you follow him and share his story. Every reblog counts. It will help give his fundraiser momentum.
Thank you!
I felt happy and happy and renewed life for me when my wife went to the obstetrician and I went to the obstetrician and told me that your wife was pregnant with two children, and that was ten years later, and I was waiting for every moment to get my child to get my child to this life. On 27/1/2024, I had two children whom I named Ali and Zakaria. The moments of pleasure and every day began to go down to go to the market looking for clothes to wear them in the winter. Whenever I came back from the market and I had got clothes that was filling my heart. On the date of 10/5/2024, sadness began to enter my heart when the health of my children deteriorated and they stayed in the hospital and as a result of the ongoing war in Gaza did not receive medical care, so my child's condition deteriorated. My child's poor health, doctors undergoing surgery in the intestines. Health Doctors decided to have surgery in the intestines and the success rate of the operation was 50%. I was only in front of me to approve the operation because the crossings are closed by the Israeli authorities. No two days have passed, so my child Ali died, and now I want to address your compassionate hearts to help my child Zakaria resist the break in life. He completes his treatment abroad and going to live a world that loves to renew the neighborhood.
Hello dears! I am asking you to support my campaign to help me to reach my goal. I am now in bad need to your support to help me stay alive and safe. Gaza is a very dangerous place either on the level of livelihood or on the level of souls. I need your monetary support to ensble me to get the basic needs for my family till Rafah crossing point reopens to move my family to safety and peace.Pleasd help a family be alive through your small donations or througn your shares to others.Thank you so much for your stand beside people in need.
I want to make sure this information gets through to everyone: the racist genocidal German state could deport Bilal @bilal-salah0 within the next week, after he lost his job and home, heaping cruelty after cruelty onto this young man who has been working nonstop to provide for his family facing genocide in Gaza.
he's supporting 18 people there, including 8 kids under age 16. now Bilal needs to finish fundraising for his family before August 15th when he could be deported. that's one week from today.
Bilal needs to raise €25000 in the next 7 days to make sure his family has enough to survive if he can no longer fundraise. Bilal shared this dire news with us on Tuesday, but in spite of thousands of notes on @malcriada, @appsa, and others' posts about the situation, the campaign received only €3650 in the last two days.
it seems like people are somehow not seeing the urgency and severity of the situation. donations also slowed over the past week because Bilal couldn't be online to promote the campaign, and because of the recent racist attacks against fundraising efforts here. there's a lot of ground to make up and very little time, but we can do it. please donate any amount you can, those €5s add up if enough people help. reblog this as well as the posts linked above, and tell your friends and social media outside tumblr. and most importantly, seriously, please donate whatever you can. we need to come through for Bilal's family now, not later. please take this seriously, please help them.
August 8th: €75,467 / €100,000
plain text and tags under the cut
PT: read and reblog please

I've been messaging back and forth with @mohammedalanqer after he shared his fundraiser with me, and very quickly into our conversation I offered to draw a comic about him to help boost his gofundme. he was incredibly excited about the idea and shared so many lovely pictures of his family for reference. the text is based off his story of him and his family living under constant bombardment, which you can read here.
he has been able to raise €50,403 out of €58,000, meaning he only has €7,592 left to be able to evacuate. please share this comic as much as possible so that he can reach his goal!

DESPITE IT ALL, WE HAVE EACH OTHER
no matter how much hopelessness they corner us into, they cannot stop us from taking care of each other.
somewhere to start today is by helping nada, who is less than 40% of the way towards her goal.
https://gofund.me/e06f31d3
please continue to share mutual aid, whether its in your own neighborhood or across the sea. please continue to find both what's urgent and what's beautiful in the world.
thank you always, take care.
I have noticed that quite bit of people are donating but not a lot of process is being made. I'm happy that people are trying to help no matter how small the donation is, but not a lot of people know about his campaign. I want everybody to help spread word about Abdallah's campaign. Talk about to your friends, family, work, school, social media,-anywhere. You are not pressured to do this and anything that you do to help means a lot but I want more people to know and help reach Abdallah's goal even if it halfway. He is losing hope and I don't want him to. So please, donate AND spread the word. Thank you for your time.
(My old campaign but it still works normally but people know GFM site more)

there is something horrifically grim to it, but illustrations for gaza and palestinians tend to catch more mass attention that actual photos of people. this made me feel incredibly helpless for a long while, seeing both how people would rather look at a neat drawing of red black green and white than look a human in the eyes, and how online platforms would rather push a viral drawing while suppressing those begging for help at the same time.
a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.
if art gets better traction, then there’s an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.
within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gaza’s fundraiser. it’s a small effort in the grand scheme of things. it’s not a fix it. but it’s something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.
here is bashar. i’ve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all
Hello 👋
I hope you are well 🤗
I'm writing to you in hopes that you will help me by donating, sharing, or reblogging the gofundme link. I need those donations to save my family from the war that destroyed my home and work and the death of some of my family members 😢😥
I am also Eight months pregnant and need proper health care and medication 🚨
Every donation, share, or reblog contributes to saving our lives from this war 😢🙏
Thank you for your trust and support 🌹
I'm so sorry, but I lost my job and, as a result, my bank account, and I am unable to send anything. I know words are not worth much when your family is trapped in a war zone, but the only thing I have to offer is my sincerest condolences for the pain you have all been through and my deepest hopes that you will be spared from any more. Your strength is amazing❤️
If anyone is in a position to help, I hope you consider doing so. Vist the family's profile and read the story for yourself.
