Last week we had NO support for our weekly drive for Spark Space, which supports displaced families with electricity & internet. Families can work online—to EAT, study, build a future.
Chip in. My only ask: click "weekly" or "monthly" on just a five. chuffed.org/project/spar...

Please don't forget the people of Gaza during the escalating international crisis. After having everything taken from them, Julia and her family depend on donations to survive. chuffed.org/project/157569 @mommunism.bsky.social @pepsffk.bsky.social @merryrobin.bsky.social @gofund-gaza.bsky.social 🍉
As war spreads like a cancer across the Middle East, driven by Israel and the United States, we cannot forget our brothers and sisters in Gaza. Please give what you can.
I'm probably getting annoying, but I promised my best to my colleagues, who are planning a mental health intervention for Palestinian children who were released from occupation detention.
Hope, healing, restoration. We only have ONE month to do it: chuffed.org/project/hmg
Still not too late to help cover the last 273 for Maha and family’s rent which will be sent off TODAY. Please help us meet their needs. 💕💸🍉
This is a really important support circle for children who were detained in gen*cidal state's prisons (where torture and all sorts of unspeakable acts towards all Palestinians are done). Healing and bringing these children to a state where they can be themselves again is the most crucial thing.

Ahmad is fading before my eyes… pain has stolen his childhood and left him only tears 😭
He spends sleepless nights in agony while I stand helpless, heart breaking.
Only £180 remain for his medicine… please don’t let him suffer — your donation could save his life 💔🙏

This project will deliver numerous mental health activities and interventions for nearly a hundred children who faced the unimaginable in occupation detention!! What we need to make it happen is YOUR support for materials & facilitation.
Anything helps: chuffed.org/project/hmg
There are no words for what my friend Sama'a and her family have been through and continue to live through. Even a small donation helps.

Let's meet the goal for this month to keep a family of eight sheltered!
From Gaza to Cuba. End sanctions, sanctions kill.
For medical staff to donate harder-to-find medical items etc: www.musagraphics.com/nola-to-cuba...
Send solar generators to Cuban hospitals: www.letcubalive.info/donate
I'll drop some links here for you.
A fund that directly helps six families (and indirectly more): Keep Hope Alive chuffed.org/project/hope...
Divert that money into funds for Palestine, Sudan, Cuba, anti-ICE, helping undocumented people, people with medical needs, marginalised communities etc. Follow BDS and boycott American means. It's not difficult.
I've been absent here. My excuse is think globally act locally. I'd suggest that to you all. You will understand that imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism. Anyway, here to remind you that one action to stop feeding the system that feeds the war machines, the imperial core is BOYCOTT.
have americans raised a single finger to physically prevent the shipment & deployment of the US's entire military capacity to the vicinity of Iran? or do british twenty-somethings hold a monopoly on this
I won't know peace in this life because I won't have peace if my comfort comes at the expense of another.

Text: Our friend Seraj is a 21 year old student and the sole provider for his family of 8, including a baby. After devastating displacement, they finally have some shelter, which is truly life-sustaining in these harsh, deadly winter months. Click “monthly” to sustain this lifeline! tiny.cc/serajrent
You've kept a family of 8 housed another month yall ⚠️ We do it together, as we have done since April. This family gets virtually no help for survival needs, so can we keep the support going for food & blankets?
Clicking "monthly" is amazing. Family vetted by Palestine Asdiqa. tiny.cc/SerajRent

Baha’a (father) taking a photo of 5 month old Talia at his chest, you can see his hand holding her up. She is wearing mint green fuzzy pajamas with an animal print, and looking over her shoulder. She has light brown skin and a mess off dark hair on her head.
Ramadan in Gaza is not a month of peace… but a test of survival.
We fast through hunger and break our fast to the sound of bombs.
Our kids don’t ask about Eid… they ask, “Will we live to see tomorrow?”
What kind of Ramadan is this where mercy is besieged? 💔

Another night spent under bombardment and destruction.
My little girls screamed and cried from the intensity of the explosions. The night became like day from all the fire.
How long will the fear last? My children want nothing but safety.
Please support us.

Yes, so many things are happening at the moment. Yes, it can be overwhelming to compartmentalise the support for/join all the struggles. But connect the dots please. They are actually interconnected, so should we.
The concept of "earned settlement" based on a hierarchy of value is an affront to the very concept of human rights
Here is an urgent call you can help out
Also again, if you are looking for a more general fund helping more families, you can support Keep Hope Alive.
That's okay!! Always here, have been finding it difficult to come to bluesky as the platform pisses me off but still here
The reality has not changed in Palestine. It's only getting worse. So why do the donations stop? If you are a person who cannot take direct action to stop the imperial core doing whatever they want, donation is one of the ways you can make sure people there survive and don't disappear, get support
Like hard to sell yourself as the better alternative while you’ve spent 2 years banning genocide victims
64/815. Your small change could offer a family the security of knowing their rent is covered. Click ‘weekly’ or ‘monthly’ on a coffee & help keep Maha & family housed. 💕💸🍉 chuffed.org/project/savi...
If you want to help many families but don't know which ones, here is Keep Hope Alive that helps six families. It helps with covering rent, food, medicine, clothing. Basic needs to survive. Regular donations help the most.
