I have been using a T-shirt from my old job to wipe this week, and I'm officially all out of cleaner to sanitize dishes with. I was just using multi purpose cleaner in the end because that's what I had, I've been out of actual dish soap for a while. I live right next to the infamous Nazi grocery store that's also really cheap, so if you can even do $5, $5 would go a long way right now, that'd be enough for dish soap and toilet paper. I appreciate any help y'all can do ♥️

Before the war, my dream was simple: to continue my education, build a future, and support my parents, my brother, and my sister. Like millions of young people around the world, I believed that hard work could change my life.

Then the war came, and everything changed.

For nearly three years, my family and I have been living in a displacement camp. Every day is a struggle just to survive.

The summer heat inside the tents is unbearable. During the day, the tent becomes like an oven, making it almost impossible to sleep or even breathe comfortably.

One of the hardest parts of our daily life is simply getting water. We walk long distances carrying heavy buckets because clean water is scarce. Every liter is precious, and we never know if there will be enough for drinking, cooking, or washing.

Food has become another daily concern. Many days we survive on very simple meals because basic necessities are difficult to find and far too expensive. Life has become a constant search for the essentials that many people take for granted.

The war has also taken a heavy toll on our health. Medical care is extremely limited, medicines are often unavailable, and even common illnesses become frightening because treatment is so difficult to obtain. We have been exhausted physically and emotionally by years of uncertainty.

Despite everything, I refuse to give up.

I have been nominated for admission in Cairo so I can continue my education, and I have also received an acceptance from the University of Glasgow, which represents a dream I have carried for years—to study in Europe, gain knowledge, and one day build a better future for my family.

Unfortunately, these opportunities require financial resources that my family simply cannot afford after everything we have lost.

The tuition fees at the University of Glasgow are £33,000, far beyond anything I could ever pay under these circumstances.

In addition, I need approximately €7,500 to cover my entry fees in Cairo, study materials, and the essential costs of starting my education again.

I am not asking for luxury.

I am asking for a chance.

A chance to study.

A chance to rebuild my life.

A chance to help my parents after everything they have endured.

A chance to give my younger brother and sister hope that our future can still be different.

To every compassionate person reading this, I want to say:

You are our only hope.

To the people of Europe and the Western world, you have shown kindness to countless families in difficult times. Today, I ask you to stand with mine as well.

Every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to safety, education, and dignity. Even if you cannot donate, sharing my story could help it reach someone who can.

If you would like to support my family and my education, you can donate here:

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

From my father, my mother, my brother, my sister, and from me…

Thank you for giving us hope when hope feels so far away.

With gratitude,

Soliman

Hello everyone, I hope you’re all doing well.

This is Suleiman.

I am currently going through one of the hardest periods of my life, but Alhamdulillah (praise be to God) for everything. I have been trying my best to raise the money I need for my travel and university coordination fees so I can continue my education, but unfortunately I have only managed to collect a very small amount.

Even so, I am grateful that I had the chance to share my story with kind people who might be willing to help. Sadly, time is running out, and I don’t have much left before this opportunity is lost.

Today, I am reaching out once again to ask for your support. My fundraiser has been inactive for quite some time, and every donation—no matter how small—brings me one step closer to achieving my dream of continuing my education.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing my fundraiser with others. It could reach someone who is able to help.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who has supported me, shared my story, or kept me in their prayers.

Title. I need this to keep my therapy appts and track my meds. A phone card is $20. I can take an e gift card (can't use paypal since I need a card or a bank account to process). Please bump this and thank you!

Can you help me before I lose hope? 💔 I’m a mother doing everything I can to provide my children with life’s basic necessities and their education. But the circumstances are beyond what I can manage, and support has almost completely stopped. Any donation, no matter how small, can make a real difference for my family right now. If you cannot donate, please share this post; it may reach someone who can help. 🙏 Please don’t leave us alone. 🔗 https://gofund.me/1d3ea05b6 #Gaza #HelpGaza #SupportGaza #Donate

I am disabled and have been unable to work because my car needs repairs. I have tried to stretch what I had as long as I could but I am out of food and haven't eaten for the last 2 days. I just have to make it to the 3rd when I get paid again. Please help if you can. Love and Solidarity from NY

Hello! I am going to be making two mutual aid posts today, as I do sometimes. However as y'all know, I don't just double post the same need.

So as we know, the American economy is already in the shitter and it's only going to get worse. I've lost 10 lbs in the past month because I've been poor and affording food is hard. And I consider myself fairly fortunate, I could be doing so much worse.

Well, I'll cut to the point, there's a Restaurant Depot (somewhat) by my apartment. I can get staples for really cheap. 50lbs of rice for about $30, 60lbs of canned black beans for $35. I'm looking for money to buy these bags so I can feed myself, my roommate, and all of the queer and underprivileged friends I've made over my time living in the city. These are prices based off the Webstore, so between taxes and price variation, I added some to the total I'm requesting

I will also add, even if nobody here can help, I will still do this. I don't remember if anybody remembers me starting my estrogen supplying phase a couple of years ago, but I made sublingual estrogen from stuff I bought from China and handed it out to a bunch of people. 4 people transitioned! Well, I made a post on here before I ordered the estrogen. Unfortunately, nobody was able to help me out at that moment and that's completely okay! Those girlies still got their estrogen. I get paid on Friday, I need to get food anyways, it's happening. Y'all are very kind to me on here, and there's a good chance that I'll never be able to return it how I receive. So I spend my time looking out for people the same way y'all look out for me ♥️

Hello Hexbear. I have no income owing to unemployment running out. I live in Canada but as an immigrant don’t qualify for last resort financial assistance. I have money starting the next month from classes but until then I need to find a way to cover rent. Any amount is appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you to everyone who donated in the last couple of weeks. I ended up getting more than I asked for, but a bunch of unexpected steps made the document submission and notarization cost way more than I was expecting. With food money I was given through the government, I had just enough to pay for everything. So thank you, again, for you generosity.

Now I have to do another round of submissions, including sending multiple packages (binders of printed documents), as well as sending mail to another country. And this is me doing everything myself without paying for a solicitor because I'm still getting a lot of dead air from everyone I talk to. We haven't even started the pretrial yet, and that's going to be even worse. But between pushing an appeal through the Supreme Court, appealing directly to government officials, and publicizing everything to put as many eyes on what is happening, I don't know what else I'm suppose to do.

I have sent several emails to the mother simply asking if Sora is okay, offering to send Sora his toys and books and clothes, trying to get any kind of information about him and any kind of a response out of her and I have gotten absolutely nothing in return, Sora has ceased to exist when he was forced back to Japan against his will two months ago. Which is what I told the Irish Judges over and over again would happen, as they rolled their eyes at me and called two major acts of violent assault and child abuse and years of ongoing verbal abuse and harassment a marital spat.

Sometimes I don't know how I have the will to even crawl out of bed. But as long as he's out there, he needs me. So I will drag my near-lifeless husk from one end of Ireland to the other if that's what it takes to rescue him and bring him back home. This will either be the best thing I ever do, or it'll be the last thing I ever do.

Because I got more than I expected last time, and ended up just barely having enough to cover the cost of everything, I'm guessing I'll need €350 to €450 in the next few days. If anyone can help out with that, please and thank you. And if you can't, please show this post to anyone who might be able to help.

For some time, I’ve been sharing my son Karim’s story a child who lost his leg. I used to receive your support and kindness, but recently, the support has completely stopped.

We still need you. Karim’s suffering continues, and his needs have not stopped.

My question to you from the heart: Why did the support for our story stop? Does our story no longer deserve to be heard? 💔

Please answer me in the comments. I genuinely want to understand what has changed. https://chuffed.org/project/150674-support-umm-mohammeds-family-to-rebuild-their-future-and-to-survive-amidst-the-genocide

Hello! Just vibing at home for the day, I fortunately don't have to go anywhere today. However, I don't really have any food at my house. I live within walking distance to a grocery store known for being cheap, would really appreciate some money for beans and rice today

For those who didn’t know, I am a 30-year old gamer and college graduate. I was diagnosed with autism since early age.

I am very dependent on my pension and my aunt on my budget.

There would be a lot of problems related to food and survival after graduation, such as fees while looking for a job. Job hunting may not be easy even after graduation.
