great question. while a lot of these gofundmes started to fund evacuations, since the border will not open they have shifted to covering the costs of daily survival in gaza
the cost of food alone in gaza right now has been reported by journalists on the ground (including @siraj2024) to be 20 times the normal price.
and it varies based on location. the north is currently being starved by the IOF so food prices are higher
and there is a lot of evidence on tumblr that proves that these fundraisers do help
@ma7moudgaza2 was able to buy a tent for his family and is currently trying to pay for a solar panel
@siraj2024 was able to secure rent for a (bombed out, but still) apartment for his family over the winter
@mohdiwais was able to fund medical care for his sister after she was shot by the IOF using funds he raised on tumblr
a gaza-based charity called care for gaza has also been directly assisting families with funds used from their gofundme. they even post videos of themselves giving out food
and those are just a few examples. hope this helped!
Whatever. I am a beautiful woman.
if i had to heal from you.. you will never have access to me again
i can't stop thinking about the lack of shade in gaza. with so many trees and buildings destroyed, there can't be very much shade. it's incredibly hot and there's very little protection from the sun and very little water. my weather app tells me the UV index reached 11 recently. it's inhumane to force people to live in such conditions.
donate to gaza medical tent
donate to disabled gazan children
[edit: if you’re engaging with this post, i ask that you please match my donations if possible. thank you]

This is a great blessing from you that you shared my story. I am sorry and very embarrassed to ask you to also donate $20, which equals 220 Swedish krona.
I'm not currently able to, I don't start working for a few weeks. Never be embarrassed for asking for help. Anyone reading this, please donate ! (Remember to check conversion rates for fundraisers, make sure it's not causing more harm than good)
