Rose, she/they, 32, Filipino. one day i'll have time to make art again 😞

Can I interest you in some Filipino short stories (written in English)?

Every week, I plan to choose a short piece of Filipino fiction and record myself reading it.

In exchange for proof of donations of at least £5 to any of the Palestinian fundraisers listed below, I will send a copy of the audio file along with a PDF version to your email (or a link to a gdrive folder where you can download it, if you prefer).

Please consider supporting these families with your donations:

Fundraiser for Rewaa, @mohamedmoner1994 and their children

Fundraiser for Karam's Family

Fundraiser for @yousefmoner, Sahar and their parents:

Fundraiser for Ismail:

I unfortunately have neglected these families for the past several months now because of my own personal issues, but my friends need help now more than ever. None of them were evacuated during the brief and cruel ceasefire, even Rewaa, who should have been in the priority list for evacuation given her cancer. Their situation is becoming more and more dire.

As you may know, Israel has blocked ALL aid to the Gaza strip, and their attacks on civillian encampments have become even more extreme. There's been several evacuation orders and these families are being forced to flee from place to place. This requires money, on top of the funds they need for basic needs, and the prices for commodities are now unbelievably high.

Please, if you were thinking of cancelling any of your streaming subscriptions, or skipping out on a badly-reviewed movie, or thinking twice about purchasing a book, game, or album, now couldn't be a more perfect time to do it. Instead, I encourage you to direct your money to the fundraisers above, and donate to at least one of them, or to all of them if you are able.

And in return, I will tell you a story.

Please send a screenshot of your donation to my inbox here (I am able to accept asks with media; the submit a post button is also enabled). Kindly indicate as well if you would like to receive a gdrive link or an email with the audio file and pdf, and if the latter, include the email address you want me to send it to.

Hello 👋

I am the mother of LAYAN 12 years old, a mother of four children's from the Gaza Strip. 🇵🇸

The war has destroyed our lives and our families. I was injured in the damned war, and my body was broken, and my joint was damaged. 😔

We tried to escape from the war by the Ministry of Health, but we were unable to have the request, so I had to borrow money to get treatment in Egypt, as well as for my daughter to complete her high school studies, and for my son to take care of us on this journey. I suffered a lot to get my treatment, and I had to borrow money to pay the high cost of my treatment.  

Thanks to God, I completed my treatment in Egypt, and my daughter passed the secondary exams (Baccalaureate) after a hard work and study and the suffering and pain from the war,Her wish was to enter university like the rest of her friends, but due to lack of money, she is now unable to complete her studies.😞

I had applied to my daughter LAYAN, for a medical transfer, but it was delayed. Unfortunately, the RAFAH crossroads were closed. 

She is still stuck in GAZA with my other son, They are now suffering, regretting, and in pain. 

They have been displaced to another city. Rafah, The city we lived in has been completely destroyed. 

They are now in tents, and most of them are living a semi-life. They do not have the necessities of life. 

With the different weather in Gaza, my daughter suffers a lot because she did already some injured.

I hope that you all can stand by my side and support our story in raising money to get my family out of Gaza so that I can continue my life in Egypt with my children together.

My little brother Ahmad is just a child.

He doesn’t understand war. He doesn’t know what a blockade means, or why Dad can’t buy us chocolate anymore.

Every day he grabs a pen and paper, draws toys and colors, and says to me:

“Can you ask them to bring us this?”

I smile… but it breaks me inside.

He asks for simple things—while we’re out here searching for electricity, water, and bread.

He keeps asking:

Why is there no internet?”

Why did the world go dark?”

And I don’t know what to say… except:
A war is stealing his childhood.

We haven’t received any donations in three days.

No food boxes, no help, no message of hope.

And Ahmad still draws… still waits… still believes someone will answer.

Please, if you’re reading this—help us keep his hope alive.

Even the smallest support means the world here.

Any amount you give me will help me a lot, even if it is $10.

Pray for him. Pray for us.

Maybe tomorrow will be kinder.

URGENT! FUNDS NEEDED TODAY TO SAVE A BABY

@life-111 is a Gazan (vetted by @90-ghost) whose baby is on a respirator and needs treatment for cancer today. He has to raise $650 for the treatment. If he can't, the baby's lungs would be prey of the cancer. THE BABY WOULD DIE. YOU CAN AVOID THIS. PLEASE DONATE TO paypal.me/ofkt637, GOFUNDME WOUD TAKE TOO LONG. BE THE HERO HE NEEDS!

In the heart of Gaza, where hope fades and destruction grows, nothing feels like life anymore. People die in silence—under the rubble, from hunger, from the cold, from fear. Children are pulled lifeless from beneath the ruins, and mothers scream with no one to hear. Every day we lose our loved ones, and a part of us dies with them.

We desperately need every hand that can reach us. If you’re able to help, please donate through (GoFundMe) or directly via (PayPal).

Thanks to your donations I now have enough money to cover my phone bill and laundry! Though I would like $150 to last till the end of the month. If fifteen people send $10 I should be good!

Please Help A Black Bisexual Disabled Person

Survive!

V3nmo: shounen409 (sorry I made this when I was 17)

I haven’t received anything in three days. Can you help me out? D0nate or at least spread this far and wide!

⚠️: URGENT FUNDING NEEDED FOR MOHAMMED ALHABIL

Mohammed Alhabil had already lost his father and his brother, and he had just had turned 18 when the attacks escalated. he currently needs to pay for an URGENT operation to save his leg. please help him afford it, considering the prices are high in his area. if he could not afford it, he may lose his leg's function entirely.

€17,263 / €20K

this fundraiser is supported by @/90-ghost. [ link to post ]

i also suggest for people to help Mohammed by contacting him and promoting his fundraiser on other sites.

Mohammed's blog: @mohammedalhabil2000

you can visit his blog for more info.

€21,239 / €35K

there were no fundings yesterday and funding was just given again recently!

please remember that full-scale bombings have returned, and on top of his injury, he is very likely to be in extreme danger of being bombed!

according to an update on his blog, he is currently being forced to be displaced, and he is seeking to afford vehicle transportation to be able to escape due to his leg condition hindering his ability to walk. he said it is very expensive due to the price of diesel. [ link to post ]

€21,282 / €35K

the last funding was given around 6 days ago! there were only 3 fundings within around 16 days! it is SLOWING DOWN!

Past and present in one image

My family was stable, we lived in peace, and now all we know is the sounds of explosions and the smell of corpses in the streets. We are escaping death every moment. We struggle to get food and drink, as the video showed in a previous post. Video link:

My eldest son Zain's first year at school was a joy for his school, friends and teachers. His life was like the life of any child who dreams of everything beautiful.

My second son, Yahya, was in his first year of kindergarten,and he would wake up early, happy to go to his friends and play.

Or do they now wake up to the sounds of planes and explosions and feel ashamed when they stand in line to get food or water? A terrible difference between our lives in the past and the present. A year between our stable life and the life of war, no education, no games, no life, no security, and no source of income. How long, world, where is humanity, where are the rights of my children? I hope you will donate. As much as possible, my family and I want to leave Gaza. I want my children to have a life that suits them My friends, donate as much as you can.

Post my story. Your friends may be able to help my family and donate or spread our story. I trust anyone who has a heart and humanity.

Hey guys i want to bring your attention to the isnad campaign which is an initiative to help gazan college students continue their online education during this genocide.

The initiative will provide them with a safe and suitable study environment with electricity, high-speed Internet, a break room, a toilet and a whole kitchen will be free for students.

If you can please donate what you can spare to this fundraiser, your money will be going towards supporting students during this difficult time.

Only 2 donations in the past day please help out if you can

An Update on Reema's Campaign (and a match to go with it)

Reema (@pal-rema) and I have been messaging for over a year now, since she began campaigning for her family. Like all Gazans, Reema and her family have been struggling to survive and have been through suffering we cannot comprehend. For a time last year, Reema was in the hospital with severe hypotension, at a time when there was barely any saline in Gaza, much less available medications.

Currently, Reema is sick with a kidney stone. If you have ever had one, you know that the pain is excruciating. Depending upon the size, stones can cause hydronephrosis, which if left untreated causes kidney damage. The healthcare system in Gaza has been ravaged beyond repair. Reema is suffering from an illness that, if she were anywhere else in the world, would be easily treatable. Instead, she barely has access to potable water, much less to the care she needs.

Even so, Reema is still doing everything she can to campaign to support her family financially. Every time that we speak she tells me how hopeless she feels, as her campaign is barely making any headway. There are stretches of several days when Reema will not receive a single donation. She is losing hope for reaching her goal, even though it is so close within reach. Here is the link to Reema's GFM:

Right now, Reema is at $33.3k. Her goal is $35k (CAD). She is 95% of the way there, and yet her fundraiser is moving more slowly than ever. To help her get over the hump, I'm going to do a match for Reema. I donated $30 CAD (equivalent of about 21ish USD). If you're able to give any amount up to or exceeding that, please do. Even $5 makes a difference! That's less than the cost of a cup of coffee.

If you don't have the means to give to Reema, then please send her GFM link to someone you know who does and is willing to give. I know I've said it a million times before, but it never stops being true: sharing means SHARING the link with other people. Send it to your friends and families and enemies. Send it to your therapist for all I care. Just make sure Reema's GFM is spread as widely as possible, so that she can get to her goal and support her family as best she can.

I don’t really like posting these often (as I know times are hard and everyone’s tight on cash or supporting other causes) but if you’d like to send anything to help with covering the costs of Mawmaw’s bills (we still have so much to pay even with what her insurance covers you know how healthcare is in the states) you are free to check out the links below. I appreciate any and all help I get no matter how small you think it is.

Mawmaw also had cancer once, and she survived it with surgery. Unfortunately whatever happened now has took a turn for the worse.

Ao3 campaign filling up in a blink of an eye is a joke

At this point making fun of it feels bad. Idk who are donating. But you people have money for your fic website but have no money for human lives.

Could cry you know. I could cry and I do feel like crying but uh. What's the point? I am just speechless that people can donate and reach $75000 in a day on a scam but when requested to donate to a fundraiser, a huge portion of fandom bloggers will accuse the families of being scammers and bots.

Requesting people that if you are reblogging the post, consider sharing my friend's fundraiser. It has been five days since he has been able to buy food for his family of 24.

We are being killed

We are being slaughtered

We are being torn apart

We are being buried alive

We are being buried

We are being displaced

We are starving

We are being detained

We are being tortured

We are being burned

Whoever watches everything from above will never be affected by what's below.

We are the ones whose heads are being cut off.
