Please help my family

My name is Aisha

I never imagined I would find myself in a situation that would require me to write these words, but life has taken an unexpected and devastating turn. My family, consisting of my beloved husband and our eight children, is facing a crisis that we cannot overcome alone. Our home, once filled with love and laughter, has been shattered. The roof over our heads, the walls that protected us, and the place where our children grew up are lost. We lost not only our home, but the foundations of our lives. Now, we struggle every day to survive, with nowhere to go or a way to rebuild without help.
Our children, who should be focused on school and their dreams, worry instead about where they will sleep or when their next meal will be. The weight of their fear and confusion breaks my heart. As parents, we feel helpless and unable to provide basic necessities for our loved ones.
We are urgently asking for help because we cannot do this alone. We need to rebuild not only our home, but our lives. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly to providing our children with a safe place to sleep, food to eat, and a chance to dream again. Please, if you can find it in your heart to help us during this desperate time, we will be forever grateful to you. May your kindness and generosity be the light that guides us through this darkness.

The way the world treats us, the way we've been punished in every possible way since the beginning of our lives, and now they move us around like chess pieces. They wanted us there, then they wanted us to leave, then to stay, as if we have no will of our own. Can you imagine what that does to us, as the people of Gaza? As if we're not human beings. Some people romanticize our suffering, turning us into symbols or superheroes, while others see us as nothing, as objects to be moved from place to place. Can you imagine the impact of this on those who have physically survived this genocide? How we see ourselves?

How we see the way the world sees us? We are treated as everything except human beings.

My family are living now on the rubble of our destroyed house since they returned to northern Gaza without the minimum necessities of life, with no shelter or tent, without food or water! They just light a fire and gather around it to keep warm. Please don’t leave us alone with this suffering. This is not a human life and everyone has abandoned us and the people.

The planes in the sky above us are flying densely. They are preparing to seize their targets shortly, as usual. They are taking their daily share of lives, blood, and the bodies of children sleeping peacefully. We do not know who will be next. But now everyone is equal under the siege and starvation in the tents.

Ola reached out to me again to help her, I want to share some things that she told me & encourage you to share this post/d0nate, every share and every $ counts! 🙏 [LINK TO FUNDRAISER]

You may be thinking, why does she need so much, haven't we helped enough yet? While we complain about, let's say, the ever-rising price of eggs - 2€ here, $10 in the US - how much might these same eggs cost for Ola, in a country where all production is stopped & barely any food can be imported? Well, for Ola and her family, every single food item & necessity has prices comparable to what one would normally only spend on perhaps a trip or even rent - each egg, or fruit, or vegetable, is like a luxury item, and meat is out of the question entirely. On top of that, Ola is unable to work or earn any money, so she & her family are completely dependent on this campaign for basic survival. In this art piece, I wanted to portray Ola's dreams that were crushed by the current situation, where she can barely survive.

The campaign has been vetted by @90-ghost here, @northgazaupdates here, @el-shab-hussein, and @nabulsi 's spreadsheet of vetted campaigns #205.

How long?!

Displacement after displacement, where do we go?

How long will things remain like this?

Hasn't the occupying usurper had enough of displacing, starving and humiliating us?

Please help us survive this brutal genocide.😭

We have to evacuate immediately.

Help us survive 💔Every donation, no matter how small, helps us 🙏🙏🙏

After more than a month of disconnection, we are finally back...

-These photos are from today, 11/3/2025.-

Today, I am sharing a glimpse of our new life, where we have started again beside our home that was destroyed by war. Despite the pain and loss, we have not lost hope, and our determination to build a better future for our children remains unshaken.

This Tumblr house we now live in is not just walls—it is a testament to our resilience and to the love and support of everyone who has stood by us. You have always been a community full of kindness and generosity, and today, I share these moments so you can see how the light continues to shine in our hearts despite everything.

-This clip was made yesterday by my daughter Lian to make something for Amir to sleep in and the experiment was successful. This is Amir sleeping.-

But life here is still very difficult. We are still trying to stay strong, and we have built a simple shelter to live in—I will attach photos. We are waiting for the border to open so we can travel, hoping for the day when I can see my children wearing school uniforms, going to learn, playing in safe, undamaged places, eating clean food, and drinking safe water.

For now, we are just trying to survive with what little we have, as the border remains closed to everyone except those with severe medical conditions and critical war injuries.

We need your support once again. I will try to stay connected online and keep sharing photos and videos of our new life. Thank you to everyone standing with us—you are our hope in these difficult times.

My campaign has been verified here #174!

The war is back!! It seems that we are not destined to survive.. We have no right to live..

I wish the border crossing would open so we could escape, immigrate and live safely in other countries.

I kinda need to know what is going on astrologically in my life specifically right because wtf?

Today I am writing on behalf of Mohammad Ayesh's ( @gazanphoenix ) friend, Hania. Hania suffers from diabetes and is struggling to access the necessary treatments. I am going to share with you what Hania herself writes on her gofundme campaign to give you a better picture of the urgency of her situation.

Hello, my name is Hania, and I am from Gaza. I suffer from diabetes, but unfortunately, I have not been able to get the necessary medications due to the difficult conditions in Gaza. Since the beginning of the war, I have worked hard to help others, especially families living in tents and facing severe cold, where I have provided food and drinks for them. Despite this, I could not ignore my own health condition, as diabetes has been threatening my life day after day. Over time, the lack of proper treatment has worsened my health, and I developed acidosis due to being unable to obtain the necessary treatment during crises, which sometimes leads to diabetic coma. This significantly increases the danger of my condition. All I want is to receive the medications I need to stay alive, but the conditions here make it impossible to obtain them. I urgently need treatment, and my only hope now is to leave Gaza to receive life saving medical care. I appeal to you to stand by me in this hardship and help me raise the funds needed to travel and get treatment. 

Please help Hania raise the necessary amount that will help her travel and seek the necessary treatment. Her end goal as of now is just $2.4k USD

As mentioned above, Hania is vetted by association via Mohammad Ayesh. This is her Instagram account, should you want to have a look at the relief projects, Hania is associated with.

please give anything you are able for my friend Omar and his family from Gaza. they lost their home to the zionist army's bombing and had to relocate to a school-turned-shelter that was also threatened by the occupation forces, and had to relocate again, now to just a tent. they have been living out of a tent this whole winter. please help and share

long time no talk tumblr.

i'm back and not happily (mostly).

long story short i had two jobs (full and part time) and have been notified that both will be ending soon due to lack of funding (non-profits are suffering). i have some money saved but things are tight with my brother needing surgery and not being able to work. i'm hoping to interview for new jobs soon (i've been applying trust) but fellas i am terrified lol.

i'll be making more edits so unemployment won't be so bad i guess.

some of you care about dunking on individual zionists more than a) challenging Zionism as the violent colonial terrorism it is and b) more than supporting Palestinians. People like Trump, Gal Gadot, Scarlett Johansson, Amy Schumer, Jamie Lee Curtis, and whoever the fuck else - their Zionism isn't just an excuse to call them losers. It's a form of terrorism they're lending their social and political capital to in order to legitimise and further enact that terrorism. Moreover, calling Gal Gadot a shit actor (while incredibly true and accurate) and calling it a day isn't anti-Zionist enough. Support Palestinians, uplift Palestinians as much as you shit on Zionists otherwise what's the point. Speaking of which here is a GoFundMe campaign supporting over 80 Palestinian families in Gaza and the West Bank that still hasn't reached its goal. Support Palestinian art, film, academia, etc too. Read Mohammed El Kurd's latest book, Perfect Victims. In light of the testimony from survivors of the IOF's latest massacre Palestinian paramedics, remember Zionism isn't just something that gives you an excuse to call out celebrities. Zionism is terrorism. Zionism is genocide. May we see and and keep fighting for a free Palestine in our lifetimes.

The group behind the "Hands Off 2025" protests in the United States is quite literally just a Democrat party front group serving to funnel energy against Trump away from progressive forces and to a pro-NATO, anti-Palestine Democrat movement - it's the typical Democrat strategy of cooptation, but this time without directly associating it with the Democrats, because they are simply too unpopular now for that to work. Here's their about page:

They treat an attack on one as an attack on all - unless Palestine is under attack! Their leadership page lists only these two executive directors:

The purpose of this group is to funnel people and resources into phone banking and canvassing for Democrats, protecting bourgeois rule and serving as another mechanism for subtly repressing the development of progressive groups. It's a way to take highly motivated and politically active people who are dissatisfied with the existing system in the US and funnel them right back into that system, preventing them from joining or starting revolutionary movements.
