Complacency is a betrayal to our duty to Palestinian life.

We partnered with seven friends in Gaza to make this shared link and get reliable, weekly support for their survival needs. And they’re blessedly still here with us.

They need food, tents, blankets. 14 hours left on today’s goal ⚠️ 23/640

If you’re curious: £78,604 total on the campaign / 7 recipients / 23 weeks x 1.27 exchange rate x 0.55 after average cash withdrawal fees = $341 per week per family/a displacement camp of fifteen families. With current prices and needs, each family needs that amount every two days, not once a week 🥵

“Support slowing down” means this, by the way. (Caveat, I have to update yesterday’s total). Remember that this all divides by 7.

I’m sorry, between my health and support slowing down, I can only push the giving circle right now. I still can’t answer DMs and I’m still going to be slow on texts.

WE CONTINUE. It would be so easy to slow down, but we’re needed more than ever 🚨

These six families will remain in emergency—in need a LOT of extra help in the coming weeks for food, supplies, transport, more.

So we stay bold, RIGHT? 24 hours left ⚠️ 0/640: chuffed.org/project/hope...

A square white graphic. On the left is a stylized ink illustration of a kestrel falcon in black on white, without outline just the black marks on its wings and face, drawn from behind. His wings are partly open and his head is turned to the right. In his beak is an anemone poppy in red ink with a green stem. On the right is the title "Keep hope alive: a gaza giving circle" in ink-effect font. The text says "We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support." In the bottom right corner in green text is the link https://tinyurl.com/HopeGivingCircle.

Shares please. You have been an incredible light to young dad H and his toddlers—keeping them housed for almost a year has saved them from deadly cold, exposure, shrapnel. For kids, this isn’t trivial. Sit with that impact and keep it going.

They still need that support.

Mutual aid is still a support front, survival funds are still survival funds, & every ounce of our imagination matters (if we use it right). It isn’t time to disappear into complacency due to the news.
