<div>Help Me Rebuild My Life and Find Safety
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Ziad, and I am a young man from Gaza.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For a long time, my family and I have been living through circumstances that have changed every part of our lives. Our home was destroyed, and we lost the place where we felt safe and where our memories were made. Since then, every day has been a struggle to find stability, hope, and a way forward.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Instead of focusing on building my future, I spend my days worrying about basic needs and what tomorrow will bring. I am a university student with dreams of finishing my education, working, and supporting my family, but the reality around us has made those goals feel farther away than ever.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The purpose of this fundraiser is to give me a chance to rebuild my life outside the conditions that have trapped us for so long. The donations will help cover the costs related to travel, relocation, and the essential expenses of starting over in a safe place where I can continue my education, work toward financial independence, and live with dignity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every contribution, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to a new beginning. If you are unable to donate, sharing my campaign with others would mean just as much.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read my story, for your kindness, and for giving hope to someone who is trying to rebuild a future after losing so much.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />

..“Save My Family from Starvation in Gaza”

<div>Ikhlas Sami Ahmed is a 39-year-old woman living in Gaza with her husband and four children. They are displaced in Deir Al-Balah and their situation is extremely difficult. Ikhlas' husband is mentally ill, and she is trying her best to provide her family with necessities. Every day, a new part of Gaza is being bombed with the United States' tax dollars. <strong>Ikhlas' family is trying desperately to survive in this chaos, and they need help.</strong> Ikhlas aims to provide her children with food, clothing, and safe housing. She also hopes to leave Gaza to educate her children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Mollie, and I live in Senatobia, Mississippi. I came to know Ikhlas through social media. She reached out to me in desperation because her family is suffering. They are living in a war zone and need help surviving. <strong>Ikhlas and her family are so strong, but no one should have to be this strong. They deserve basic needs. They deserve to live.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have confirmed Ikhlas' identity and the legitimacy of her situation through identification, videos, photos, and talking to her directly. GoFundMe does not operate in Gaza, so she asked me to sponsor her and fundraise on her behalf. It is difficult to get funds to people as they are living in an active war zone. Funds will be transferred via PayPal to her family to provide basic needs including food, water, and clothing. At this time, resources are scarce, and so food and water prices are extremely high.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please consider making a donation to Ikhlas and her family. They need your help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>6 family members:
</div>
<div>Ikhlas Sami Ahmed, age 39 - Mother
</div>
<div>Muhammad Ashraf Al-Aqraa, age 17 - Eldest son
</div>

<div>Honoring the Life of Silverio Villegas Gonzales
</div>
<div><strong>It is cruel what ICE agents did to him shortly after he dropped off his sons at school.</strong>
</div>
<div>It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Silverio Villegas Gonzales — a devoted father, cherished friend, and kind soul who touched the lives of so many.
</div>
<div>Silverio passed away after ICE agents shot him fatally, leaving behind not only loving family and friends, but also a legacy of warmth, resilience, and deep compassion. He was someone who always extended a helping hand, shared his smile freely, and showed up for those he loved — no matter the circumstances.
</div>
<div>As we begin to process this immense loss, we are asking for your support to help cover the funeral expenses and memorial services that will allow us to honor Silverio’s life with the dignity and respect he truly deserves.
</div>
<div><strong>Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward:</strong>
</div>
<div>Funeral and burial costs
</div>
<div>Memorial service arrangements
</div>
<div>Supporting the family during this difficult time
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with your community. Your prayers, kind words, and support mean the world to us during this time of grief.
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping us celebrate the life of a truly remarkable man. May Silverio’s memory live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

</div>
<div>Silverio partió de este mundo después de que agentes de ICE lo balacearan inesperadamente, dejando un gran vacío entre sus seres queridos, pero también un legado de amor, fuerza y generosidad. Siempre estuvo dispuesto a ayudar, a brindar una sonrisa y a estar presente para quienes lo necesitaban.
</div>
<div>En estos momentos tan difíciles, acudimos a ustedes con humildad para pedir su apoyo. Estamos recaudando fondos para cubrir los gastos del funeral y los servicios conmemorativos, y así poder despedir a Silverio como se merece: con respeto, amor y dignidad.

Silverio Villegas González

<p>Hello friends and family! :)<br /><br />As many of you know, my mother and I have been working for two years now on a new self-made business called Whiffables. Whiffables is a company that provides essential oil diffusers for kids and adults in all kinds of cute handmade ways. The hours my mother and I have put into making this happen have reached a countless level and we have made over 600 items and sold quite a bit of that with a demand for more.<br /><br />So far, the response has been nothing but positive and we could not be more excited to see our little idea turn into something that has touched so many people. <br /><br />We are now looking to take Whiffables to the next level and we need your help to do that. <br /><br />What is the next level?  We are looking at taking Whiffables on the road to our first (and hopefully more) two day street festival/art show!!! We are so excited about this idea. We have been to two shows before now and we have done well each time. We know that having Whiffables face first in front of the public is when we shine! What's more, we need this. When we are at a show we turn a much higher profit than when we are selling on-line. Higher profits mean that Whiffables can stay open longer and we can maintain a living.<br /><br />After running the numbers we are now facing a staggering $1,500 bill in order to do this. To many this may seem like a small number, to us it is quite large. <br /><br />Here is the itemized break down:<br /><br />*Licences &amp; Registration - $450<br />*Show Booth Space            - $275<br />*Show Tent (reusable)       - $250<br />*Table Covers                        - $75<br />*Vinyl Booth Sign                - $75<br />*Display Fixtures                 - $72<br />*Parking Fee                           - $50<br />*Table Rental                          - $25<br />*Exhibitor Screening Fee - $10<br /><br />*Unknown Fees Budget   - $218<br /><br />We added the "Unknown Fees Budget" because it seems that we are constantly running into exactly just that. Fees that we were not expecting. We think this will most likely go into the Licenses &amp; Registration category. As the Whiffables home base is in Chicago, we are expecting to get hit with additional city and state taxes or filing costs. <br /><br />Should we actually not run into additional costs the "Unknown Fees Budget" will go toward items needed to make our booth stand out and look inviting to the customer as well as supplies we may need for the event.<br /><br />We need to raise this money by April 30th to give us time to make sure all of our paperwork with the city and state is in order before we can reserve our spot at the show. (We are praying there will still be an open spot for us.)<br /><br />How much will this mean to us? Well, I would not be lying if I said the tears weren't welling up now just at the thought of being able to do this. This really would mean everything to me, and to my family. Although my mother and I are the faces of Whiffables, this truly is a family run business and it effects all of us. Our gratitude would never end. &lt;3 </p>
<p>So if I have ever helped you in the past with free graphics or advice or just help in general to make your business grow - I am asking you to please now return the favor now and help me make Whiffables grow. It really would be a dream come true.</p>
<p>Your Friend,</p>
<p>Elizabeth/Firgs</p>

<div>I am raising money for my dear friend Yassir Hijazi ( @yassirfamily97 on instagram), his wife and their two beautiful daughters. They are currently displaced in Khan Younis, Gaza Strip, Palestine, living in impossible conditions, only housed in a tent as winter brings cold and heavy rain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yassir lost his family farm in Khan Younis when the war began Oct. 7th 2023 and the land was bulldozed to the ground. Shortly after they were displaced from their home in Rafah as forces moved through the Gaza Strip. Since then they learned that their home was utterly destroyed by indiscriminate bombing. Yassir and his family have been without any resources and income for the last 2+ years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yassir has two daughters, Rafif (4 years old) &amp; Nisreen (2 years old). Yassir and his Wife want nothing more than to bring peace, love and comfort to their daughters, but the current situation makes it near impossible. Please allow these two angels a chance for a future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yassir Hijazi strives to gain enough donations to purchase a tent, basic supplies and run a small kiosk to create enough revenue to self support his family Until his is stable enough to achieve this goal, any available funds must go to their critical needs for food and warmth
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for considering to help Yassir and his family thrive through the impossible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why I’m Running This Campaign:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Ryan Duelfer, @ofBERENxLUTHIEN on Instagram, and I primarily devote that space to raising awareness and voices of the people of Palestine, highlighting families in need. I’ve helped promote campaigns, but this is the first time I’m personally running one.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why? Because I believe in Yassir.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Because Yassir is a devoted father and loving husband. Proven to fight and survive the impossible while keeping those dearest to him close. I believe Yassir can strive, with support, and plant seeds for his families future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All funds raised here will be withdrawn by me, and delivered directly to Yassir and his family through secure banking channels. Every donation will be accounted for.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What Your Donation Supports:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Yassirs desire to open a kiosk to self fund his family
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Food, clean water, and shelter
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• A small generator for electricity
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Psychological support
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Emergency relocation if possible
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In a place where almost nothing works anymore, hope still does.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for standing with Yassir, his family and the people of Palestine.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All the love in the world,
</div>
<div>Ryan
