If you don't have the capacity to process everything that is happening in Palestine, that's fine -- donate to one of the non-politically motivated charities that has boots on the ground there:
https://www.doctorswithoutborders.org
https://www.anera.org
https://www.mausa.org
If you can only send $5, that's still $5 more that they have to spend on aid. Everything helps, and money always talks.
Her family's GoFundMe is linked below! We are almost at $17k as of me writing this and need minimum $23500 to evacuate them all asap before the Rafah offensive and potential indefinite border closure that could occur any time now.
Even if you can't donate, PLEASE share this as widely as possible! Any words of support for Haya and her family in the tags or notes will be passed along to her! Thank you so much everyone. FREE PALESTINE!!! ❤️🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸
PCRF.net - They did over a 100 medical missions in 2022 (Palestine Children’s Relief Fund)
Middle East Children's Alliance - A Non-profit organization fighting for the well-being and rights of Middle Eastern Children. They also have a link to a 'tool kit' to help spread information about the Gaza Genocide. I'm linking to it directly HERE
Anera: Where Hope Finds a Way - They provide everything from food, medicine and hygiene kits. $30 equals 16 blood bags - an essential thing for helping doctors help people survive horrible physical trauma.
UNICEF.org - Link to where you can donate to help UNICEF get aid to those suffering in Palestine.
And because I know damn well that lots of people don't have the extra funds to donate money - you can help by simply clicking here once a day. It donates ad revenue. Click to help Palestine
[I wanted so much to find other places people could donate that weren't in the US or Canada, but I was having problems figuring out how to ensure that they were reputable. If anyone knows of any, please reblog and add the links!]
And some basic informational sources for those who want to understand what's really going on other than the misleading information from the media.
BDS - The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement works to end international support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians. Offers actual news about what's happening.
Decolonize Palestine - In depth information about the history and origins of Palestine. Also has a great 'debunked myths' section that lists almost all of all the lies the Media has been peddling.
Mondoweiss - An independent website devoted to informing readers about developments in Israel/Palestine and related US foreign policy. (Be aware: Some articles show disturbing images of the horrors happening in Gaza.)
Petitions I found with reputable track records (there are a LOT of fakes out there)
Canada:
Independant Jewish Voices Canada - Gaza on the Brink Ceasefire Now! - Prewritten letter to Justin Trudeau and Mélanie Joly calling for an immediate ceasefire, and for an end to the collective punishment of Palestinians. Just sign your name and it sends a letter!
There are several other ways (Including email addresses to various people/companies, as well as physical addresses you can mail letters to) listed here.
DON'T send threats/hate mail. That does nothing but make them double down on their current stances. Be polite. You don't have to take a happy tone, but be polite.
United States:
USA - Tell Congress: Stop Fueling the Gaza Genocide - Demanding an immediate ceasefire and for Humanitarian Aid to be allowed into Gaza.
Jewish Voice for Peace - You can use their form for send a letter to Congress to demand that they should focus on de-escalation instead of sending money and weapons to Israel so they can continue their genocidal war against Palestinians.
Jewish Voice for Peace (part 2) - Fill out this form and inform President Biden that he should call for a ceasefire and stop supplying money and weapons to Israel.

i really want to donate in aid to the Palestinians in Gaza, but knowing some people who are involved with charities personally, they have shared many stories of corruption within big charities. this followed by the influx of scams that can happen in this time, i’m really afraid of money from good-willed people going to the wrong places instead of helping those truly in urgent need. are there any verified charities validated by Palestinian journalists on the ground? and how can i be sure that my donations will go to the right places? thank you for all that you have been doing by the way, im wishing you well.
hi anon - there are a few direct aid organisations that you can donate to that are doing verifiable good work and goes straight to helping Palestinians.
One of these is CareforGaza, which distributes food, hygiene products, and other living supplies directly to families in need in Gaza. They take their donations via Paypal.
The second is E-sims for Gaza, which is organised by Mirna El Helbawi and her group of workers. They distribute e-sims directly to Palestinians so that they can keep connected to the world and each other. So far, they've distributed over 130,000 e-sims. There is a comprehensive post teaching you how to purchase and send e-sims here.
Other organisations that also do good work with your coin but are perhaps less immediate are the PCRF and the UNWRA which are responsible for delivering truckloads of aid (whenever Israel allows them to). However, if you wanna get the most bang for your buck, I'd recommend the two options I explained above.
Hi my friends! My team and I are running the Gaza 5K next month to raise money for the UNRWA which as you all know has had their federal funding suspended recently over bullshit charges, collectively punishing the entire population. We’re really close to our goal and I would dearly appreciate your donating and reblogging! ❤️❤️
hello all! following the lead from other artists, i wanted to set up a way for people to donate in support of gaza as a means of 'buying' art from me
any donation amount is ok, but since i want to do as much as i can efficiently, smaller donations will be the baseline of an uncolored sketch & going higher means i can add more detail like in the examples above 👍
links provided for accepted donations:
e-sims for gaza
PCRF
gaza medical staff support
palestine legal
terms of service for my regular commissions apply here, so go read those if you need more info. send me proof of your donation in DM's, email ([email protected]) or discord (smitty.w) and tell me what you want drawn!
details subject to change if donation needs change! i can & will accept donations to other reputable orgs focused on palestine (e.g. care for gaza, which i only havent listed bc at the time of posting their gofundme is closed to access), just run it by me first.
