I finished my Masters in Library and Informational Science! People asked me what I wanted as a graduation gift and I said that all I want is for you to help out @abo-ataa to support his family this winter by donating to his paypal below.

Please consider donating to my friend Hussam, he has been displaced from his home in Rafah, and has to take care of his children in this freezing cold weather without even a proper tent! A few dollars will go a long way, no matter how small! Consider it a graduation gift for me if you appreciated any of my posts on tumblr!

It's really ridiculous how we had literal video proof of items being bought and distributed but GoFundMe still deleted HelpGazaChildren's campaign because there weren't any itemized receipts for the aid... Like I understand that in most other situations they're required, but how can you expect receipts from a literal warzone where people are constantly fleeing for their lives??

@abo-ataa, our friend Hussam from HelpGazaChildren, had dedicated all his time and energy into helping displaced people in Gaza, even when he himself was displaced, to the point where he doesn't even have a proper tent for him and his family.

And his personal fundraiser was also cancelled by GoFundMe, where they didn't allow him to collect the 9,000 Euros he raised!

Please try to contribute to his campaign where he's raising funds for him and his family to try and survive the harsh winter. Any amount, no matter how small, will go a long way in supporting them throughout all this.

Hello my Friends

I’m reaching out to you with a heavy heart. After GoFundMe deleted my account, I found myself in a difficult situation and urgently need your help. I’ve set up a PayPal campaign to continue seeking support, and I’ve updated the link in the original post.

Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to hope. Your generosity means everything to us during this challenging time. Thank you for standing by us.

Hello Everyone, please do donate to our friend Husam from Help Gaza Children.

GoFundMe cruelly deleted his campaigns after insisting on "receipts" despite having video proof of the material Husam bought. So I'm starting a donation train of $20 USD for his campaign which only has the $20 USD I donated. Please do try to match my donation if you can!

Update: HelpGazaChildren on Pause

I wanted to wait and see if there would be any updates about this before I announce it but for the past couple of weeks, Hussam has not been able to withdraw from the HelpGazaChildren gofundme. This is because they put his funds on hold in the gofundme as he sends in documentation they request from him.  

Because he’s constantly being displaced (currently he is experiencing his 4th displacement!) and the internet is spotty, the process has been going slowly. Here is the original email HelpGazaChildren was sent:

He hasn’t been able to withdraw any amount since getting this email. Your donations are being put on hold in the gofundme until this is fully sorted out. This means you can still try to donate and if they let Hussam withdraw sometime soon, they can use the money. The most recent email they sent is asking for further documentation.

Hopefully they’ll respond to his emails soon. He submitted the recent documentation they asked of him and he's just waiting to hear back.

I wanted to make sure everyone was aware about the current situation and if there are any updates, I’ll provide them.

Thank you so much for all you help these past few months. You put smiles on children’s faces, made sure families were able to eat, and so, so much more. I hope we can continue helping Hussam soon.

UPDATE: Water and Clothing!

Hussam put together 400 packages for the families at the Khan Younis camp he's located in. These packages contain 5 bottles of fresh water, each 5 liters and 9 packages pads, which will help about 400 families!

He also put together 150 packages of clothing containing abaya, underwear, clothes for women praying that covers whole body, blouses, hijabs, and pants.

The past few weeks, I haven't been able to upload as much but Hussam has seriously been hard at work! He purchased a fresh water truck of 4000 liter for the entire camp, which is greatly needed in this extreme heat. They also use water pumps for salty water but they require diesel to operate. Diesel is very scarce and costs about 42 dollars a liter!

Not only this, but Hussam put together an event for the children at the camp! He didn't have the chance to take pictures, but the kids really enjoyed it!

Please keep donating to HelpGazaChildren! This grassroots effort is helping so many people in Gaza when the world has abandoned them!

UPDATE: Child Care Kits and Veggies!

This past week, Hussam managed to buy 150 packages worth of veggies to distribute to the people at the camp in Khan Younis that he’s located in! Not only that, he also distributed child care packages for the families in the camps, which consist of wipes, diapers, hair shampoo, toothpaste, pads, toilet paper, and towels. These will help families in a time where access to restrooms is difficult and not always available!

UPDATE: Pads and Reusable Water Bottles!

These past few days, Hussam says that the temperature was quite high, going as high as 37C on Yawn Arafat (the day before Eid)! The situation for everyone continues to be tough in the middle of their continued displacement while they seek safety from bombings.

Thankfully, Hussam managed to buy 5 liter reusable water bottles and pads for the people of the camp he is staying at. Each family received a 5 liter water bottle and 3 packages of high quality hygiene pads. Your donations helped make this possible!

UPDATE: Salty Water for Khan Younis Camp!

Hussam managed to buy a generator, water pump and pipes for the camp he is living in and another nearby camp. The generator needs diesel on a daily basis and each liter cost $30. The well water is salty and not suitable for drinking but is used for everything else like washing and cleaning. The pipelines of salty water reaches all 500 families, meaning about 3000 people total!

Hussam's next project is to buy a 5000L tank to store drinkable water so it will be available on daily basis for all.

Can you imagine that your donations are the reason for providing water to these displaced families in the middle of a desert with unbearable climate?? I can't thank you enough for trusting me and Hussam!!

UPDATE: Khan Younis Camps

Due to the continuous assault in Rafah, Hussam and his family were forced to leave their home and live in a tent near Khan Yonis. It's a desert-like climate with barely any internet, so communication and just basic living is quite hard, and we haven't been able to hear much from Hussam himself for a little while. A couple days ago, though, we were finally able to communicate with him.

Throughout these past few months, Hussam had been offering his land and providing care by purchasing food and supplies, with even toys for children. He's been offering his help for his people for months, even through this harsh winter and now summer, let alone the continuous assault on the Gaza Strip. Thankfully, even now, Hussam was able to purchase a watertruck for people in Khan Younis camps!

Thanks to your donations, HelpGazaChildren is able to help people both in the North and South of the Gaza Strip.

Update: Gazans Remain Steadfast

Even through all this destruction, the people of Gaza remain steadfast in their determination to stay in their homeland. They'll rebuild and rebuild a thousand times over no matter what the occupational army does to it.

Mahmoud Abusalama wants to make sure everyone outside of Gaza understands how steadfast the people are. Remember, even if all this happens, this is our homeland and Palestinians will not have their spirits broken! The colonial entity of 'Israel' will never take that away!

If you'd like to support the people of Gaza directly, you can donate to HelpGazaChildren through the link below.

UPDATE: Sheets for Privacy in North Gaza

Because of the intense bombing of Jabaliya refugee camp in North Gaza, the destroyed homes that people were sheltering continue to lose walls and structure. There is no privacy for Palestinians as they struggle to find safe places to live in the midst of this genocide. To help with this, Mahmoud Abusalama, our friend in North Gaza, distributed sheets for people to put up for privacy.

Thanks to your donations, HelpGazaChildren is able to help people both in the North and South of the Gaza Strip.

UPDATE: Dangers in North Gaza!

Our friend, journalist and photographer Mahmoud Abusalama, gives us an update about the dangers in the north of Gaza in the weeks long attack on Jabaliya refugee camp. There has been constant, brutal bombings and no water has been allowed in the North as part of Israel’s starvation campaign they induced on the people of Gaza. He himself was targeted by Israel for documenting the truth about what happens on the ground.

The situation keeps getting worse and worse for the people of Gaza and there’s no hint of stopping anytime soon. Everyday, we’re worried for our friends in Gaza and pray for this vicious onslaught to stop. Please, if you’re able, take to the streets and protest your governments for aiding and abetting the Gaza genocide, and do everything you can to help them.

Gazans continue to require basic necessities, and prices for things have only gone up. If you donate to HelpGazaChildren, Hussam sends a portion of the funds to the North to Help Mahmoud Abusalama find ways to feed the starved community of Jabaliya.

UPDATE: Regarding Hussam and his Family

Since the IOF warnings of aggressive attacks on Rafah, Hussam is helping all the refugees in his land to relocate near Khan Yonis. His parents, brothers, sisters, inlaws and cousins relocated too, however Hussam himself didn't leave his house as of this moment because his wife just gave birth to a daughter after a high risk pregnancy. Right now, they're still in their house which is in Rafah but close to Khan Younis, so they're safe. But they are ready to leave whenever they need to.

Hussam is still giving out funds through HelpGazaChildren to people who need to travel to Khan Younis, which is happening everyday, about $300 USD per family. He is also sending money to the north to Mahmoud Abusalama, who is helping people in Jabaliya.

Urgent Appeal for HelpGazaChildren: Help refugees flee to Khan Younis!

Because of the looming invasion and brutal bombing throughout the most densely populated area in Gaza, Rafah, many refugees are looking to evacuate to Khan Younis!

The bombing is random and even the areas not included in the evacuation notices are bombarded. Many refugees are asking Hussam for funds to help them evacuate to Khan Younis to help keep their families safe.

The above is a screenshot of a facebook post from someone in Rafah. A tent can be as much as $700 and the transportation costs anywhere between $250-$400 per family. This cost is primarily for gas alone!!

Please donate so that people may be able to evacuate while also being able to afford basic necessities.

Even if you're unable to donate, please share this post and the fundraiser even outside of tumblr and on other platforms! This is incredibly urgent!!

UPDATE: Rafah and North Gaza Invasion!

Hussam received this brochure from the IDF warning them to leave Rafah and head to Khan Yonis, and those in North Gaza where our friend Mahmoud Abu Salama resides are also warned to move to the west.

People say there is no space left to settle, the areas are severely damaged and crowded and it is not suitable for living!

They are warning people in the North to flee despite already withdrawing troops from the North! They are preparing for a second invasion!

Here, they are warning people in Rafah to flee to Khan Younis.

This is incredibly devastating! If you take a look at Mahmoud Abu Salama's IG story, you can see people try to help a person from underneath the rubble:

Please keep them both in your prayers and thoughts! Reminder that people still require funds to help them buy basic necessities!!
