How can you help the people that this site and its fundraising activities support?
Everyone’s Chuffed/GFM campaigns listed on this page can normally be donated to directly in the usual way by credit or debit card. Two of the seven families, both of which are displaced in Gaza and the fathers of the children martyred, involved do not have online funding campaigns on Chuffed/GFM.
You can also donate directly to this site’s Buy Me a Coffee account (see link on main page). All funds this site and its related activities generate will normally be split between the 7 families, The Lifetree Initiative supporting a group of orphaned Gazan children and The Stay Human Collective school community in Gaza’s North. If you would like to donate via online bank transfer or via PayPal, please write a short message indicating this via the CONTACT page (see link on main page) and you will receive a prompt reply.
Between the 7 families, the group of orphans (by way of The Lifetree Initiative) and The Stay Human Collective school community there are currently a total of 11-12 individual funds this site directly supports; funds the site and its related fundraising activities generate are divided up between these 11-12 funds (“pots”, if you like) and sent via various online payment methods.
The situation of all individuals this site supports are very sensitive. Protecting their privacy and dignity is crucial. General information on respective situations is included below. More details and updates are generally to be found on the individual Chuffed/GFM campaign pages or individual social media accounts.
Families and initiatives that this site currently supports directly who also have funding campaign presence online are listed below with links to their campaigns.
Ahmad & Family:
Ahmad’s Chuffed campaign:
https://chuffed.org/project/143906-help-ahmad-rebuild-his-life
Ahmad and his family are displaced in Gaza. Ahmad is the sole provider for his family members. The bare minimum they need per month to pay for the space they rent in a partially destroyed building that has rodent infestation, for food, water and medicine for Ahmad’s mother is $1000 per month. If 100 people donated €10 a month at the beginning of the month, their costs would be covered plus they might be able to put some money aside. Ahmad is also initiator of the fundraising for the group of orphans this site supports.

Dr. Mohammed & Family:
https://chuffed.org/project/donate-to-apsychiatrist-for-gaza
Dr. Mohammed is trying to rebuild his life to support his family following evacuation to Cairo – where they live in complete limbo – and their lives as they had known them being completely destroyed. Mohammed wants to pursue further training and, hopefully, employment so as to provide for the family – including their 5 young children – while working in his area of expertise: psychiatry. The family requires a minimum of $500 per month for food, utilities and other essentials alone and Mohammed needs funds to have any hope of pursuing further training.

Ola & Family:
In addition to funding their own existence with a minimum of $500 for absolute essentials – without income, without any other form of funding but through donations – and that of their 5 children in forced exile in Cairo, they have a duty to repay debts and also help their family members still displaced in Gaza on top of trying to rebuild their lives.
Here are Ola’s campaigns:

Additional note: Dr. Mohammed & Ola are married with 5 children and between them they have 3 ongoing funding campaigns for their specific needs, as outlined above. Ola and Mohammed cannot find work, the children are not permitted to attend Egyptian schools and their youngest child, born in Egypt, remains stateless.
Ali & Family:
Ali from Gaza City is responsible for his family as the eldest son: his parents and other extended family, his brothers, his own wife and their small baby. All of this means that $1,500 minimum a month is crucial to pay for their essentials, as well as to even begin to even think about saving to pursue study abroad.
