From the link:

“While pregnant, I faced daily struggles and constant fear, as our area was blocked off and the situation deteriorated rapidly. Despite the dire conditions, I managed to survive until the ninth month of pregnancy. I had to escape to a nearby area to find medical care, as no healthcare facilities were operational in my own area. I was fortunate to receive emergency care and give birth to a beautiful baby girl.”

“In the chaos of the war, I have lost everything I once held dear. My savings, which represented years of hard work and dreams for the future, have been wiped out. My job, which provided not only for my family but also gave me a sense of purpose and stability, is no longer a reality. The war has tor apart the life I had built, leaving me without a means to support myself or my loved ones.”

Urgent! 🚨

Please help little Maram and her family ❤️

My little daughter Maram is in desperate need of diapers, but we can no longer afford them as the price has soared to $80. 😔 How did it come to this? Why must innocent children suffer such injustice? 😢

Maram recently fell ill, and when we took her to the hospital, she was diagnosed with gastroenteritis caused by the poor-quality food we’re forced to eat. 🏥💔 We’ve stopped giving her the food from the charity kitchen because of its harmful effects and have been trying to give her tomatoes for their benefits. But even tomatoes have become so expensive that we can’t afford them daily. 🍅 Fresh potatoes and the natural foods Maram needs feel like a distant dream. 🥔🍽️

We are down to Maram’s last pack of diapers, and I beg for your help to provide the essentials she needs. 🍼🙏 Your support can save her from this suffering and give her a chance at a healthier, safer life. ❤️

Your donation, no matter how small, will make a huge difference in Maram’s life and ours. 🤲 Please, help us and be the hope we so desperately need during this difficult time. 🌟

Erika is a Black single mother of two young children.

She recently found stable housing after experiencing homelessness at the beginning of the pandemic. Erika and her daughter have several chronic health issues that require frequent trips to the doctor and the hospital, insurance doesn't cover all the amount of those appointments.

On top of that, her daughter Amonie was recently diagnosed with leukemia, and again insurance doesn't cover all of her treatments and Erika doesn't have enough to pay for them. Amonie recently started chemo and also has meds she needs to balance this treatment. Her chemo appointments are weekly so the cost adds up fast.

Can you help Erika afford the treatments her daughter needs to fight her leukemia?

As if 11/17/2024, they are at $233 left for chemo meds! Anything helps!

Personally, I first met Erika after I got into mutual aid on instagram, I got into a group chat of people fundraising for her since May of 2023. She has been forced into raising funds to survive for a few years now, unfortunately, however I can also see how her livelihood has improved with mutual aid.

I am humbly asking for your support as well, as these support can’t be done by anyone but other people. Please reblog and send what you can!

Help Sajida and Her Family Evacuate Sudan

"We're a house full of women, children and sickly elderly, we have no one and none has got our back, so this is our desperate attempt, last resort and cry for help. We tried everything, my little brother already did labor work to help with money so we can find something to eat everyday till he fell sick, the younger ones followed on his steps and it worked for a few weeks but it isn't enough. I don't want my 12yo brothers to work just so we can barely live, I want them to actually live and merely survive. They deserve to go to school and play and act like the little kids they actually are, not the war escapees that this country has forced us to become."

Current progress: $38,516/$50,000 CAD

Sajida's campaign has been previously shared by Sara (@/bsonblast) and is one of the vetted fundraisers listed on the Sudan Funds website.

As the eldest of her siblings, Sajida stepped up to help her mother take care of their family after her father's passing. Sajida was putting herself through med school in hopes of graduating and using her degree to better support her mother and siblings, but she did not get to complete her education. The genocide in Sudan has denied Sajida of her education and left her family displaced with no income.

With the inflated cost of goods in Sudan, her younger brothers have literally worked themselves sick trying to help their family scrape by. This was not the life Sajida wanted them to have. She wants nothing more than to preserve their childhood innocence and provide them with a safe future, where they will have access to an education and the ability to pursue their dreams.

Support for Sajida's campaign has stagnated. What little they have recieved is not enough to fully cover their survival needs, let alone evacuation. It's been ELEVEN MONTHS since this campaign was created. The longer it stagnates, the longer Sajida's family will be forced to remain in Sudan, where they are exposed to violence, disease, polluted water, and malnutrition.

Your donations are a life line for Sajida and her family who rely on this campaign for survival. Please be a part of helping Sajida build a better future for her mother and siblings by sharing and donating to her campaign. Your support matters.

Fucked up that you have to go to work during the winter. Should be curled up in a little nest with several months' supply of food stocked up right now.

Another fundraiser which is in urgent need of your support is that of Hazem Albardawil. The affects of the war on his life have been devastating.

(ID in Alt)

In one horrible, traumatic day in October 2023, Hazem lost everything. He had a pregnant wife and two beautiful sons, Imad and Jad (photographed above), and when Israel bombed their home, they were martyred and he survived but with severe injuries and lasting emotional trauma.

This war has completely devastated the life of this man, and all he wants is to be able to get treatment for his injuries, survive this horrific genocide, and carry on his life in spite of these cruel circumstances that he's been placed in.

He is raising £20,000 but he has less than £500 as of the time I am writing this post. Any help you can give him will go to saving his life.

Her case was the first federal trial for a hate crime based on the victim's gender identity.

SUDAN NEEDS YOUR ATTENTION

The RSF's siege of El Jezira is still ongoing for over twenty days now. The attacks began after RSF commander Abuagla Keikal defected and joined SAF. The RSF is now torturing the people of Keikal's home state for his own actions.

In the town of al-Hilalia alone, at least 527 civilians have been murdered. Across Jezria, at least 1,237 people have been murdered as of November 10th. These reports are likely understatements, and deaths continue to rise.

The International Organization for Migration reports that more than 343,000 people have been displaced from Jezira state, seeking refuge in towns that are already overwhelmed with refugees due to the worsening displacement crisis.

Those who have been unable to evacuate Jezria face daily threats of looting, abductions/being taken as hostages, rape, and death. If they are not outright murdered by the RSF, they are killed by starvation, poisoning, or disease. There have also been reports of women resorting to suicide to avoid the trauma of being raped.

Please take action to support on the ground initiatives providing aid to Sudanese refugees, including those who have fled from Jezria state. Linked below are some highly reputable organizations that have been repeatedly shared by members of the Sudanese community. If you are able to donate to one, please do.

If you'd like to help further, the Sudan Funds website (organized by @/thisisNOTghaida on twitter) has a list of vetted campaigns for more organizations as well as individual families. Please consider adopting a family or campaign to post about.

Help Ammar's family 🍉

A year has passed since the October 7 war, the Gaza Strip war. In this war, Ammar Hammad was born in harsh conditions. He was 3 months old and could not breastfeed from his mother because she suffers from asthma in the lungs and no milk comes down in her udder. There is a report from Nasser Hospital about this. Ammar needs about 10 packs of milk to help him live in these conditions, in addition to diapers and his special clothes. In addition, Ammar's son suffers from a complete tear in the cruciate ligament and cannot work. Therefore, Ammar needs your help to stay alive.

Your donation is part of saving our lives from death. I hope you donate 20$

[sinnabums]

We can do it‼️

This campaign is for a doctor who works in the hospital and does not have time to publish her campaign‼️ It is our duty to help her as she helps the wounded in the bombing. Let's do a favor for the doctor

Every dollar will be a reward for her for alleviating the pain of those injured by the bombing.

Urgent Call for Help!!

I have been asked by Sami @samy-family11 to help in raising money for donations.

Food, bedding, and clothing are incredibly expensive in Gaza right now. Sami's family need to be making money much faster than they currently are.

Please, even a $5 donation will make a huge difference to helping this family survive.

Aid Marafi in Escaping War and Finding Hope

Current progress: $15/$5,000

This campaign was shared by @/modathirzainalabdeen and listed in his link tree

Please take a moment to read Marafi's words and support her campaign. Her campaign was created back in August and remains extremely low on funds.

"My name is Marafi Hajo. I used to live a simple life in Khartoum, striving to build my future through education and hard work. I’m studying Mathematical Sciences with a focus on Statistics and Computer Science, aiming to make a positive contribution to our country’s future. However, when the war broke out, our lives were turned upside down. We had no choice but to leave our home and everything we owned behind, fleeing in search of safety. Initially, we moved from Khartoum to an area in Sennar, hoping to find some peace and stability. But even there, we weren’t safe from the effects of the war. As the situation worsened and the risks increased, we were forced to move again. We hoped to find a safe haven, but it seems like the specter of war is following us wherever we go. Our journey hasn’t been easy; we faced attempts at robbery along the way and moments when fear and anxiety consumed our every thought. I was terrified not just for the few possessions we still had but also of the constant threat of physical violence or rape. I’ve never felt as endangered as I did during those moments. Even though we’ve reached the Northern State, the peace we were seeking is still out of reach. Now, we’re facing the threat of floods, and there’s nowhere else we can go. As the only one in my family who has the ability to travel and provide assistance, I need to first find a safe place where I can also secure a job to help my family. That’s why I am considering traveling to the UAE. Now, I am reaching out to you for help in our fight for survival, to give me the chance to live the life I deserve. Your donation will help revive a dream that has been denied, restore a life that has been stolen, and bring hope that has never been felt by my family. I humbly ask for your support; with your assistance, you will have saved an entire family."
