now more than ever, please vet gofundmes before you donate.
copy and paste descriptions into google to see if there are scam accounts reusing the same story, check to see if there are any images/updates on the fund with faces. go to the original blog, check if the post asking for help is only an hour old, or even less than that. refrain from donating if all it links to is a PayPal account, without any further confirmation of identity.
it’s horrible to say but it’s never been a better time for scam artists to exploit your generosity, when things seem so dire, and I’ve donated to campaigns before only to realise later that the entire story was stolen from an actual family in need. due diligence might take a few more minutes out of your day but at least you won’t be sending money to an opportunistic scumbag.
i'm not back yet but an invasion on rafah is imminent so i'm opening commissions again to earn more money to donate to palestinian escape funds. i'll be taking on as many as i can (which means turn-around will be longer. Your commission will get gotten to, there might just be a longer waiting time) and every cent will be donated.
if my prices are out of your budget but you'd still like to donate directly, please consider one of these funds that are close to their goals:
Donate to Anwar's family (€9,000 from escaping)
Donate to Diaa Mahmoud's fund (€8,000 from escaping)
Donate to Thaer’s fund (€7,000 from escaping)
regardless of how you feel about me at this point in time, please don't send in hate, as it bogs down my organisation process. thank you for reading.
might I leave a request for a potential punk ghostsoap? the choice is 100% yours ofc, just curious to see how you’d dress em as a punk adjacent person myself
Ah ofc @amazeingartist... so cool that you identify as punk, I can only ever aspire...
just for today, i'm opening commissions! i'll be donating all the money i earn from this to palestinian aid <3 but pay attention to the prices before you fill out the form!!
