HYGIENE PRODUCTS FOR GAZA
Tumblr media
Organised by the Asad sisters, Leena, Amanda and Loren with Pious Projects.
— At $20 each, this kit will include - but is not limited to - sanitary pads, a hair brush, tooth brush, toothpaste, cotton swabs, wipes, tissues, and other hygienic items depending on availability!
You can donate as little as $5 if you just want to help out, or donate a bulk of kits for between $100 to $1,000!
Access to the right hygeine products is essential for Palestinian people, as the Israeli blockade has left millions without access to proper hygeine that can lead to potentially fatal infections and diseases.

If anyone wants to purchase an esim to provide internet access to Palestinians but haven't yet, you can use my Nomad referral code LYDI79TR for $3 off your first purchase! With this code esims are as low as $6, and this is a way you can immediately help someone in Gaza who might otherwise not be able to make contact with their loved ones.
More detailed information on esims is available here, and a tutorial walking through how to purchase and send an esim through Nomad is available here.
edit to add: if this code isn’t working for you, try codes NOMADCNG or BACKPACKNOMAD !

🇵🇸🔻I need everyone to remember: we must not get desensitised to the words genocide, ethnic cleansing, occupation, massacre, colonialism, imperialism, white supremacy, colonial violence, settler violence and war crime
do not let the gravity of those words, or the actions they describe, be lost on you. do not let them lose meaning in your mind just because we use them so often in our speaking out for Palestine.
letting our minds forget the sheer atrocity of these words is what "israel" is banking on, because the instant they just become what we tag Palestine posts with, or part of the copy pasted outrage we caption our posts with, or part of the usual paragraphs we see on posts from those in Gaza, we will lose steam because our brains will switch off
DO NOT BECOME DESENSITIZED TO WHAT ZIONISTS IN OCCUPIED PALESTINE, THE USA, THE UK, AND THE WEST ARE DOING TO PALESTINIANS
DO NOT LET YOURSELF BECOME ACCUSTOM TO WHAT ZIONISTS ARE DOING. DO NOT LET YOUR BRAIN ALLOW IT TO BECOME A NORMAL OCCURANCE AND NORMAL NEWS
IT IS NOT NORMAL. WHAT "ISRAEL" AND THE USA AND THE UK AND THE WEST ARE DOING IN GAZA AND THE WEST BANK AND PALESTINE IS NOT NORMAL.
IT IS INHUMAN. IT IS EVIL. NEVER FORGET. NEVER FORGIVE. NEVER.

Donation site for medical, food, and water aid in Palestine and other areas as well.
palestiniansocialfund.com

Not a link but something that can help: test "resist" to 50409 in reference to bill HR 3103, it is a bot that will help you write out a letter on your phone to send to congress, senate, and president if you'd rather not make a call!
Here is a list of some very major brands to boycott, which DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
McDonalds, Starbucks, Disney, especially Disney+, Coco Cola, Victoria Secret, Puma, Nike, Walmart
There are MANY more brands that support the genocide, but these are the most major. Research is good!!

How To Support People
Sometimes, when someone is struggling, we default to giving or offering what support we would want in that specific situation. We don’t mean to, but it can cause harm to someone who we are trying to help.
So what can we do instead? I would ask people: “How can I support you?” But it was often too open-ended. My loved ones didn’t know what they needed.
Mental, emotional, and physical are support types that can be used to give personalized offers for support! Sometimes, people need specific offers of support, usually a mix of types.
Mental support could be:
Facts
Wisdom
Constructive feedback
Solutions
Advice
Solutions
Resources
Mentoring
Guidance
Pros and cons
Advocacy
Reminders
Logical steps
Planning
Some examples can look like: - “I complied resources for you” - “Let’s make a support plan together” - “When I was in a similar situation, I did…”
Emotional support could be:
Validation
Venting
Commiseration
Solidarity
Affirmation
Listening
Check-ins
Distraction
Space
Comfort
Praise
Motivation
AITA?
Some examples can look like: - “Tell me what’s bothering you” - “I think it’s reasonable that you feel this way” - “You got this!” - “Do you need space?”
Physical support could be:
Housework/chores
Physical touch
Mutual aid funds
Body doubling
Acts of service
Gifts
Flowers
Food
Cards
Transportation
Some examples can look like: - “I finished your to-do list for you” - “I made you your favorite dinner” - “Let’s do this together” - “Can I make a fundraiser for this?”
We all have various needs and capacities, but I hope we can all find creative solutions to help support each other. Keep caring.

For those who don't know due to the overwhelming number of persons reaching out to Operation Olive Branch they have temporarily closed the referral section. A lot of families still aren't on their list but need help as well.

Mohamed's goal is at 10k and he's only got $1,000 so far. Please let's help him and his family.
Another family I hope to help:

Roshdi's mother messaged me to share their gofundme. Read their full story and if you can please try to help even if it's a small donation. This is Roshdi's Instagram.
Please please share. That literally takes nothing and someone who can give will eventually come across it.

Stand in solidarity with the Miccosukee:
Big Cypress Preserve is part of the Everglades, one of the largest remaining tracts of wetlands on Turtle Island (North America).
The Miccosukee Tribe have lived there since time immemorial and their care for their home has shaped it into the beautiful swamp we know today.
The National Parks Service is trying to rush a change in Big Cypress' designation from a Preserve to a Wilderness area. [plain text: The National Parks Service is trying to rush a change in Big Cypress' designation from a Preserve to a Wilderness area.]
This would give the area stronger protections for water quality, but would significantly limit the Tribe's access to their homelands and completely ignores how their stewardship of the lands and waters was and is crucial in maintaining the health of ecosystems.
There hasn't been a good faith effort to include the Miccosukee in a meaningful way (ie free informed prior consent & input!!!) on this change to their sovereign territory.
If you want to practice allyship, here's a chance. Sign the petition to show your support / solidarity with the Miccosukee. [plain text: Sign the petition to show your support / solidarity with the Miccosukee.]
Personalize it even just a little, even if it's just adding your own name or hometown. If you're able, print it out sign it and mail it. The Tribe and organizers working on this have a goal of getting 500 letters to the NPS/Secretary of the Interior. The online petition is almost at its goal! Just over 2,000 signatures left (as of Mar.16th 2024 21:30EST).
Please please share! I have it on good word that the NPS is trying to push this through before folks really have a chance to hear about what they're doing or make a fuss. So make a fuss we must.
The mailing addresses are below the cut for anyone who can send a physical letter!
Mail to:
Charles F. "Chuck" Sams III, Director
National Park Service 1849 C Street NW Washington, DC 20240
Secretary Deb Haaland
Department of the Interior 1849 C Street, N.W. Washington DC 20240

hi everyone. this gofundme is for the family of a very dear friend - there's more info in the link, but in short: her family is in gaza and they need to get out, now. in just the last few months so many family members have been killed. their house was destroyed and, as with many other families in palestine, medical needs are mounting into emergencies. evacuation is their only remaining option - at time of writing, they're already almost a quarter of the way to their goal. please donate or share if you can.
edit: THEY REACHED THEIR GOAL!!! i cannot tell you what it means for my friend and her family members. their pain and loss has weighed in my heart every day for months but this means they are now freely able to start pursuing a way into egypt without finances holding them back. thank you everyone

DONT STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE!!! but not just talking. keep boosting the voices of Palestinian journalists and families and people, keep calling and annoying your representatives, keep boycotting, keep protesting, keep donating to Gazan families and UNRWA, keep making zionists fucking uncomfortable, and never forget what "israel" and america and the uk and germany and canada and the western imperialists are funding. this would not be happening without them.

Example Submitted Post
No more kids with cancer: Clean up the Santa Susana Field Lab
youtube
Video: A Change.org-made feature video explaining the situation and the story of the organization's founder, whose daughter got cancer.
From the organizers:
"Sign to demand that California's EPA and the Dept. of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) enforce the AOC cleanup of the Santa Susana Field Lab and prevent any more children from getting cancer...
My daughter’s childhood was stolen from her, and it haunts me to know her cancer might have been avoidable.
She, like [dozens of other] children, grew up within 20 miles the Santa Susana Field Lab, land which was developed in the 1940s to conduct rocket engine tests and secret nuclear research. In 1959 an uncontained partial meltdown of a sodium reactor caused such a devastating radiation leak that many consider it to be the worst nuclear disaster in U.S. history – and it was completely covered up for years.
Our community has up to 60% higher cancer rates, 20% higher invasive breast cancer rates, and we have the reports to prove it. It is the Department of Toxic Substance Control’s job to clean up this mess. They know our children are sick and dying, but they aren’t taking any meaningful action against those who own the land – Boeing, NASA and the Department of Energy.
The Woolsey Fire, which began on Santa Susana Field Lab, may have exposed millions of people in Southern California to the chemical and radioactive waste from the site, via ash and smoke. It proved once again that we will not be safe until the site is 100% cleaned up."
--
Info
Action Type: Petition
Source organization: Parents Against Santa Susanna Field Laboratory
Where: Southern California, specifically western Los Angeles, the San Fernando Valley, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Chatsworth, and anything between those areas.
In person or virtual: Virtual. You can sign from anywhere, especially in the United States.
Time/date range: Petition started in 2017, ongoing, because Boeing is refusing to comply with the required cleanup plan they signed.
Here's the link again!
Anything else: This nuclear meltdown is the reason my grandfather died young of cancer. It's the reason 6+ members of my family are at lifelong elevated cancer risk, me included.
Everyone who has lived in this region, which includes a large area of Los Angeles, needs elevated levels of cancer screenings, especially for children, yet basically no one knows that.
(More on this here, if you're from any of the cities I listed PLEASE look into this and talk to your doctor about increased cancer screenings asap!)

This is the boycott list. I keep seeing these long list floating around on other social medias but I want to make sure that an accurate list was here as well. Also I believe that we are Boycotting Starbucks because the union put out a statement on standing with Palestine and Starbucks decided to sue them. The BDS Movement also has a few more actions that you can take. ⤵️
