In winter 2024, I was fundraising for my dear Gazan friend and her family. With Tumblr's support, they raised just enough to pay border guards and leave through Rafah for Egypt!
I was removed from Tumblr for fundraising. Now, I've remade to raise the remaining £15k for the family's urgent medical expenses. The parents need care for diabetes, arthiritis, and gynae surgeries. The youngest one (13 years) needs schooling and therapy. The family needs rent money while they settle temporarily in Egypt.
How do I know you're legit?
A Palestinian friend, Jennine K, has vetted and posted about us on Twitter.
How can I help?
SHARE the GFM! Since I remade, and as I don't have social media, its been hard to get traction. Please use your platform - every like, comment, and share makes a huge difference!

I woke up early today to look for cooking gas, but unfortunately I only found a few at a very high price 😔
So I had to go to the empty lands to collect wood... It was a very unsafe road But I did all this for my father and mother ..
Forgive me my parents I wish I could help you and paid your travel costs to a safe place, but I am completely helpless due to the harsh conditions of war 😭 💔
Please help me save my parents’ lives... Every day the danger increases and their health worsens due to the lack of the most basic necessities of life 🥹🙏🙏
Your reblug mean the world to us please share as much as you can 🙏🙏
you ever learn a specific piece of information about a character and you can feel your entire interpretation and opinion on them suddenly shift in your mind. like damn I am never going to see you the same way I did 15 seconds ago. I’m just never going back. do other people see you this way. was I meant to see you this way
Genuinely cannot begin to fathom what postpartum is like in Gaza. I was beyond blessed to have doctors and nurses present and I still suffered so much not only during labour but afterwards, and for months and months after. I cannot imagine doing that while also trying to survive genocide. Literally cannot imagine going through postpartum in a tent. I cannot imagine having to heal after giving birth in the heat of the summer with no electricity or a sip of cold, clean water. The fact that most mothers are malnourished and maternity care is almost nonexistent because of Israel is devastating to just think about. And I'm sure most of the care items needed postpartum are unavailable due to the blockade and to Zionist lunatics preventing aid from getting in.
I shared these campaigns earlier and I couldn't stop thinking about them since, please share/donate to expecting families and to families with newborns and DM me any campaigns that you come across of expecting families please.
This campaign was started by @/atute_insp on tiktok and her team Mutual Aim to collect money for the DRC, Sudan, and Tigray. The donations will be divided between the three causes. If you would like do donate but don't have the funds to donate to multiple campaigns, this is a great way to help both the Congo, Sudan, and Tigray.
You can get small TMA commissions (a little drawing or short fanfic) in exchange for donating to 1 of 10 Gofundme's of Palestinians in Gaza (starting May 17th)
There are about 60 artists signed up already who have volunteered to work for free for this to happen. Until May 16th, you can join too!
The project is fanmade and has no connection to Rusty Quill

How can I commission?
Here's a detailed How To Commission guide.
In a nutshell:
1: Donate to one of the 10 gofundme's. (any amount)
2: Fill out the commission form and describe what art you want!
3: And now we wait. We don't know how many commissions each artist will take on so please be patient💚
Guidelines for artists:
Here's a post with guidelines for artists and authors.
Here's the post that explains the process from sign up to sending the commission to the person who requested it.
Where does the money go?
We, the organizers and artists of TMA commissions for Gaza, gain no money from this. We ask participants to donate to 1 of these 10 Gofundme's by Gazans who are trying to survive and evacuate Gaza. 5 of these Gofundmes are on the Operation Olive Branch list and the other 5 are friends and family of one of our organizers. The funds are needed for expenses such as medical care, food and first and foremost to pay for crossing the border to Egypt.
Why only 10 Gofundme's?
We hope to be more effective when focusing on just a small number of Gofundme's and not for example the whole Operation Olive Branch list. Providing a smaller number of places to donate to may also help donators to not get overwhelmed by the amount of people who need their help.
If you have any questions, send us a message here on Tumblr!
Here are some fundraisers that I have each donated $5 to. I highly encourage everyone to donate and match, or give even more :)
If you can't, then please reblog. Even donating to just one is good, simply do whatever you can. These goals are very achievable!! Let's make sure they reach as soon as possible!
Mohammed Ayesh @mohammedayesh - gofundme , paypal (currently 5,175 euros out of 10,000 euros)
Hamdi Hejazi @hamdihejazi - gofundme , paypal (currently 23,554 USD out of 25,000 USD)

@moatazart 's friend - paypal (currently 323 USD out of 2500 USD) Time sensitive: ENDS IN 27 DAYS
Remember who we are fighting for, whose safety we are trying to ensure. Do what you can!
