You don't need to know much about me; this is not an introduction but an acknowledgment of the truth about the ongoing conflict. From the 'Jerusalem massacre' in 1937 to the Gaza events of 2024 (which I refer to as a genocide), the situation has been dire. Francesca Albanese, speaking at a Geneva press conference on March 27, 2024, asserted, ''Israel has committed three acts of genocide with a requisite intent: killing members of the group, causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group, and deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.”

For 87 years, Palestine has endured war crimes, widespread starvation, and the tragic deaths of innocent boys and girls on its streets, their bones left to waste. Political movements like Zionism, driven by nationalist and colonial ideologies, have further complicated the situation.

Imagine a place without military forces on land or sea, where the majority of the population lives on an average of $384 per month USD per capita, according to worlddata.info. Contrast this with Israel, a military superpower ranked 17th out of 145 countries on the Global Firepower Index, supported by over $3.5 billion in military aid from the United States.

In the midst of unfathomable adversity, your donation to the Palestine Aid Society of America will give much-needed relief, healthcare, and educational opportunities. Let's pool our resources and raise $10,000 to provide resilience and hope to those who most need it. Join us and make a real difference in the lives of people who most need it—every dollar counts.

As you are all aware, the healthcare system in Gaza has collapsed. One of the leading healthcare providers, the Union of Health Care Committees (UHCC), which lost 8 fully equipped clinics in the last 9 months, managed to open 3 medical team tents to offer FREE medical assistance to women, children, and the injured in Khan Yunis, Rafah, and Almawasi.

Please donate tax-deductible to the Palestine Aid Society of America (EIN 38-2381291) to help provide medicine and first aid supplies. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Hi! My name is Sophia Johnson and this is to help raise money for families seeking refuge and help to leave Gaza and escape to a safe place without leaving their families and friends in Palestine. This is just the start and with hopefully more and more attention and help, we can get everyone to safety AND help them set up a new life until Palestine can be free.

100% of the money raised will be given to the Palestine Aid Society of America (located in Ann Arbor, MI 48015, United States). This organization was founded in 1978, Palestine Aid Society of America (PAS) is a secular, grassroots, US-based, tax-exempt [501(c)(3) corporation; EIN: 38-2381291], non-profit organization devoted to providing humanitarian support for the medical, educational, vocational, and cultural needs of Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip, West Bank, and refugee camps.

https://palestineaidsociety.org/about-us

For me myself, I’m just a 21-year-old woman from Virginia who is ready and willing to fight for change. I study political science in university and plan to become a pro bono lawyer when my studies are finished. I like to bake, and sing and dance. I come from a very big family, my favorite color is turquoise, and my least favorite food is squash. I’m a friend, sister, and auntie. I’m also a person who has faced terribly hard times in their life, and in all those times, all I hoped for was for someone to recognize me, and help me through my struggles. And though getting through those hard times alone made me stronger, it also taught me that no matter what, if I can help, I can, will, and MUST help. Not just because of the moral obligation, but because when I had next to nothing, the kindness of strangers is what saved me. So if I knew my one small kindness could change someone else’s life the way it changed mine, how could I not help? How could I not listen? How could I not care?

There are so many families that I see on social media every day asking for people to donate (and we should!!), but the fact that even after begging for help for months, there are still thousands of families that are far from reaching their goal. And for what? Are they not human? Do they not deserve to be recognized? To be heard? To be saved? How long can one endure constant violence and suffering while their lives crumble and their hope withers?

I wanted to make a GoFundMe to do more and advocate more for the innocent people of Palestine than just sharing and donating to the few videos I come across. These people deserve to grow old, to grow up! They deserve to have dreams, and hobbies, and “normal” problems. At the very least, they deserve help.

I hope that we can come together as people, but also a community, who understands what it feels like to need help and have people turn a blind eye. People who understand what it feels like to have nothing and no one to turn to. Together we can be their hope, and we can and WILL work tirelessly until Palestine is free. Please help and donate what you can.

Imagine your Homeland being illegally occupied. Imagine millions of your people dying with no fault of theirs. A mother's shot while returning home from a market. A father is shot while praying the Friday prayers in Al-Aqsa. A brother shot while saving his little sister from a bomb blast that the Israelis caused as a 'preventative measure'. You tell me what potential terrorists could be discovered or uncovered in a children's playground. You tell me why an individual whose Homeland is Palestine can't return there- but any Jew, regardless of ethnicity or background, whether they have Israeli roots or not, can be welcomed in our Palestine with open arms. You tell me why Palestine can't own a military, and their self-made protectors are labeled terrorists.

Visualize the scene- a father is leaving for the market. but when he's leaving the house, what does it look like? Some may describe it as if the family was waving the final goodbye- as if he's a soldier going to war. Who knows what the Israelis might do. Will they see their father again?

Mothers' and kids' hearts freeze when they hear a plane flying above. Children cant sleep at night- what if someone forces them out of their house? Despite everything that the Palestinians go through, the world is hushed and overlooks their struggles. Not only do they invalidate the torture, but they also validate the Israeli violence- causing the world to defend and support Israel in every aspect- especially financially, and media+military wise. While Israel violates one human right regulation after the other, the world is full of praises for the tyrants. Palestine is bleeding, and the world presents a standing ovation to the oppressors.

The world hasn't gone numb, though. Recently, with everything that's been occurring in Ukraine, the world is in tears. Millions of dollars are being raised for the victims. Our hearts go out to the innocent Ukrainians that have been affected in any way. We don't mean to compare the two warzones, but when it comes to Palestine (or any middle eastern country for that matter), the world chooses to close its eyes. An issue we need the world to understand is that Palestine has been bleeding for 74 years. All of that, with absolutely no support from the world.

To all my Jewish brothers and sisters, we condemn any acts of Anti-Semitic violence- but there's a difference between denouncing Zionism and denouncing Judaism. If you are a Zionist, you approve of acts of violence against innocents. You are one of those individuals who call victims of war 'collateral damage'.

We call upon the important political figures in our country (specifically our state) to make a change. You may not be able to end the war single-handedly, and/or change people's minds, but you can do something as simple as show your support for Palestine. They need to all the love and support they can get. You could donate to the organizations that pledge to help the victims. You could make a difference.

It's about time we contribute to end the lies on social media and the news.

Palestine is dying, and you have the opportunity to help. Sign this petition and share it with family and friends. Social media is our weapon- and we will use this to make sure that tomorrow, Palestine WILL BE FREE.

Donate as little as $1 but again the blessings of helping an entire country.
