"Despite all the pain, we still love life, and we deserve to live it in peace." Can we find 5 people to support Diana? She's nominated by @GazaHanaa68647 who provided this beautiful picture + text. Watch Diana's 'video tour' she made of her tent (commented in English).

We try to create bridges between Gaza and people from around the world. Here's a artwork which was jointly developed by a Gazan photographer and a Canadian artist.
This unique artwork is the result of a collaboration between Mahmood, a student and photographer living in Gaza, and Isabelle, an aspiring Canadian multimedia artist.

Can we find 5 engineers who will support Bani to continue his studies and work as an engineer again? xitter.gq/lunalunabraga/status/2…
My friend is tired of just surviving. He wants to be an engineer again and restart his life without relying on donations. Please give him a chance with a simple quote. @Meteo1970 @EyesOnSouth1 @shameensuleman @Rehiana1980

Can we find 5 supporters so that Mohamed can complete his graduation? xitter.gq/MAlmsry8348/status/211…
My university fees need to be paid 😭 My dream of graduation is at risk 💔 I urgently need $325 to continue my studies. Even $1 makes a difference 🙏 Help me graduate and keep helping Gaza’s children ❤️ chuffed.org/project/197930-h…

‼️Stand with Etemad. Winter has arrived in Gaza. Etemad’s priority is a weatherproof tent, to shelter her injured husband and their seven children 🙏🏽 Not too much to ask for is it?
After five days of relentless struggle to secure a safe tent, we are down to our final $220. chuffed.org/project/205073 This is the fragile barrier keeping my seven children from enduring the harsh winter out in the open. I say this with absolute despair: I can no longer fight this battle by myself. I am turning to kind hearts today to help us cross this finish line with any contribution, no matter how modest. We only need a basic canvas roof to protect our innocent ones from the storm. Only $220 separates us from hope. 🙏 @umaymohamed @shaunking @rawhie94 @goldenintifada

Here's another 'tree' grouped by professions. The idea is that teacher from around the world might want to support teachers, nurses support nurses, engineers support engineers... xitter.gq/VirtualFlotilla/status…

Stand with the women of Gaza. Samar is a mother at her limits, showing up for others, giving care. This is what keeps society going. Let's show our humanity @virtualflotilla
"Gaza's greatest strength is not stone — it is its women. We turn the impossible possible, make meals from scarcity, create safety amid fear. We carry our homeland in one heart, suffering in silence. Don't see us as needing nothing… we too need support. Our strength ≠ no pain.

This is what 37 $ + 48 $ have enabled: Vitamins, a vaccination, moments of relief and a smile. Join the #VirtualFlotilla, pick a family via @RadioWatermelon or @oliveegirl, stay in contact. Imagine if each family had 10 regular supporters.
GOOD MORNING 🌞 wish you knew how much this meant to us. ❤️ Because of you, Leo got his vaccination, and my wife and I got the vitamins we needed. You helped us take care of our little family when we were struggling to do even the basics. We still have a long way to go. Please keep being part of our story. Every bit of support helps us keep going.

Please support families with #schoolchildren in Gaza. Help mothers like @Moh1982H2967, who have become so providers, wake up to a morning that is a little less cruel. xitter.gq/VirtualFlotilla/status…
ليت الغروب يأخذ معه كل دمعةٍ أخفيناها، وكل وجعٍ ابتلعناه بصمت، وكل ليلةٍ تمنّينا فيها أن نستيقظ لنجد الحياة أقل قسوة. 💔🌅

Can we find 5 kind people to support Samar? She had to recover in the hospital recently and struggles to provide for her 6 children. She's only received 3 donations in this month. Every kind word counts. Every small donation is a sign of hope. 🙏 chuffed.org/project/samar-es…

What a beautiful gesture. Sven and Sally sent each other messages across the ocean - 3500 km apart. Join the #VirtualFlotilla - 'adopt' a person or a family in Gaza. Thank you @salyw0285 and @sven_al3bthii for the photos and beautiful idea!
Today, I got the chance to return the favour and write @salyw0285’s name in the sand on a beach. The same sea, yet 3,500 km apart. 🌊❤️ Please, keep standing with the people of #Gaza. They need our solidarity, compassion, and continued support. 🇵🇸
