💔 Donations have been extremely low and are not enough to meet my family's needs. Please, I urgently need $100 to buy food for my children. They also need warm clothes to protect them from the cold, but food is our most urgent priority right now. Please don't leave us alone. Help us with whatever you can. 🙏❤️

I AM SPEAKING TO YOU FROM INSIDE THE TENT. MY TENT IS BEING FLOODED RIGHT NOW BY RAIN THAT WON’T STOP. I CAN HEAR THE RAIN, I CAN FEEL THE TENT SHAKE. I AM TERRIFIED. I AM EXHAUSTED. I DON’T KNOW IF I WILL MAKE IT TO TOMORROW. BUT I NEED YOU TO HEAR ME. I NEED HELP.

I never imagined that one day I would stand helplessly watching rainwater flood the only place we have left to live. 💔
Today has been an incredibly difficult day for us. The rain kept pouring for hours, and water began flooding into our tent. We tried everything we could to stop it from reaching our belongings and bedding.
I stood there watching the water seep inside, wondering: How much longer do we have to live like this? Haven’t we already been through enough?
We have survived bombings, death, displacement, and hunger. But today, we are struggling to survive the rain too.
I’m exhausted from having to worry about everything. In summer, we fear the unbearable heat. In winter, we fear the rain and freezing cold. Even when we lay our heads down to sleep, we never know what might happen during the night.
Sometimes, all I wish for is to wake up in my old room, in the home we lost, and listen to the rain falling outside my window instead of watching it pour into our tent.
I miss the simple things that used to be a normal part of our lives, things we never imagined we would one day be deprived of.
I don’t know how many more winters we will have to spend like this, or how many more times we will be forced to start over.
All I know is that we have suffered far too much, and we deserve to finally live in safety and dignity.
After everything we have survived, today we are fighting just to keep the rainwater from flooding our tent. 💔
Please keep us in your prayers.
Gaza💔
I admit that I completely broke down today. I cried uncontrollably. I couldn’t hold myself together after witnessing what I saw with my own eyes.
Today, we went to film a journalistic report inside the displacement tents along the seashore. I swear, what we witnessed was beyond what any human being should have to endure.
I saw men crying bitterly. Men I had never seen cry when they lost their children or when their homes were destroyed. Today, I saw them crying because they were powerless to do the simplest thing: protect their children from the water and the cold.
We spoke to families who told us they had spent the entire night carrying their children in their arms after floodwater covered the floors of their tents and soaked their mattresses. They couldn’t find a single dry place to put their children. They couldn’t even give them a few hours of sleep.
I saw children no older than five, without proper clothes to protect them from the cold, without heating, and without a dry place to sleep. Children shivering inside tents that cannot keep out the rain, protect them from the wind, or provide even the most basic sense of safety.
What more must happen for this world to act? How much more suffering must people endure before someone remembers that they are human beings?
I am sick of this world. I am sick of its hypocrisy and empty slogans. To hell with a world that talks endlessly about human rights while leaving children to drown inside their tents. To hell with everyone who has witnessed this suffering and chosen silence, and to hell with the governments and institutions that have the power to act but continue to turn their backs on us.
Gaza is suffering immensely right now. Please donate if you can, and share widely.
It took one night of rain for entire displacement camps in Gaza to flood. Urgent help needed: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
This morning, tens of thousands of families are facing another day of rain without shelter. The tents they slept in yesterday are underwater. The streets they would use to reach help are flooded and impassable.
We knew the tents were fragile. Even so, we were unprepared for this much destruction after the first rainfall. Families are still soaking wet, trying to salvage what they can and figure out where they’ll sleep tonight.
Please donate to The Sameer Project’s winter response and help us get emergency shelter to families who lost theirs overnight. Give to our General Fund: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

3 years have gone by, and Israel has still not allowed pre-fabs/caravans in. Why is that? Why are they adamant to keep Palestinians suffering without shelter?

This is our reality in Gaza. Our tents have been flooded with rainwater, and everything we own is now wet.
Please help us buy blankets and warm clothes to protect my children from the cold. Every contribution means so much to us. 🙏🥺❤️

🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING: US AIRSTRIKES IN IRAN!
Initial reports indicate that American forces have carried out multiple airstrikes near the Iranian port city of Jask, following alleged launches of anti-ship cruise missiles toward the Strait of Hormuz.
Jask is located near the eastern entrance to the Strait of Hormuz.

Tents were only ever meant to be temporary. Now, in Gaza’s fourth winter of genocide, families are still living in them.
In summer, the heat inside is unbearable. In winter, rain seeps through the fabric and soaks mattresses and children’s clothes. After years of exposure, the tents that families rely on for shelter are falling apart.
Tents cost between $200 and $700. The Sameer Project is buying durable, waterproof tents that can withstand heavy rain. They cost more, and we need your help to get them to families whose shelters have already flooded.
Donate to our winter campaign in our General Fund link and share this appeal. Families need somewhere dry to sleep tonight: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
