Support Palestine
We are supporting two families impacted by the genocide in Gaza. Both are bracing themselves for a cold, cruel winter and need help. Please donate if you can!
Mariam Ahmad: This Palestinian mother of 5 -- including a newborn baby -- is seeking funds for food, infant care essentials, clean water, clothing, shelter and more. Donate to the GoFundMe organized by Olivia Perez here.
Youssef Mohammed: This freelance photo journalist's home was completely destroyed by Israel, displacing him, his mother and younger siblings. Donate to the GoFundMe organized by Ashley Whittaker here.
