How is Gaza supposed to recover when the genocide hasn’t stopped? The bombings continue. The hunger and deprivation continue. And now the rain is destroying what people are fighting to slowly rebuild. chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
Floodwater rushed into market stalls where people were trying to earn a living and into cafés where people had made a place to sit together over a cup of coffee. Streets are impassable. Families who have already had to start over are looking at what the water took and wondering how they’ll do it again.
Please share what’s happening and donate to The Sameer Project’s winter response in our General Fund link in our bio. Help us get durable tents, tarps, and dry bedding to families who need somewhere dry to sleep.

The images of kids submerged in freezing floodwater, in flimsy tents that won't survive another winter, make me SICK.
I think of Primo Levi’s words that every European learns by heart at school - only to forget when entering politics or diplomacy.
The shame of our time.

Mohammad broke our hearts yesterday during the rainstorm in Gaza. Today, on November 8th, The Sameer Project immediately responded to their need in Zaytoun neighbourhood. Keep supporting: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
The Sameer Project provided the family with a dome tent, food package and a tarp. We also got Mohammad 3 pants, 2 scarves and a coat. Total cost was $710, including 11% commission. We purchased the dome tent for $550.
We plan to go back and give blankets and more aid to the family but also help the surrounding families. Mohammad is one of thousands in Gaza who lost their tents and belongings, and your support will allow us to help as many families as possible in the camps near the yellow line, like this one.
Donate now to our General Fund for more tent support: chuffed.org/project/113222-t….

Tornados are hitting Gaza!! This storm started last night, November 6th, and has already broke thousands of tents and flooded hundreds of camps. Help now: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
People are angry on the streets, after losing their belongings AGAIN. This is the FOURTH winter in genocide in Gaza, and the Egyptian borders are closed meaning that there are no tents or tarps or blankets coming in.
This is all our fault. We should be furious, and hold ourselves accountable for this. We need to mobilize and allow caravans to enter the Gaza Strip immediately!
The Sameer Project is doing what we can by purchasing what is already available in the Gaza Strip. We just bought 300 blankets for $7,850 including 11% commission. But we need to get way more.

Palestinians in Gaza are called strong. Praised for their resilience. Admired for how much they endure.
But listen to what they are telling you: they are exhausted. They cannot keep doing this alone. They need help. Support now: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
No one should have to prove their strength through another day of hunger, another night worrying about how to feed their children. Praise cannot put food on a family’s table. Solidarity must come with support.
On September 26 our kitchen prepared and distributed 520 rice and chicken meals in al-Zawayda, at a total cost of $1,235 after 11% commission. Your contributions make these meals possible and help families carry a burden no one should face alone.
Please donate to The Sameer Project’s Food and Water Campaign: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…. Help us keep our kitchen running and families fed.

He used to look forward to winter. Sitting with his family, warm inside their home, listening to the rain.
Now, winter means fear.
chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
His son was left paralysed after an injury. His widowed daughter also depends on him. Carrying responsibility for his family, he now faces the rain and cold in a makeshift shelter, unsure how it will protect them through the season he once loved. How can a father keep his family warm and fed when so much has been taken from them?
With your support, The Sameer Project helps put bread in families’ in most need. On September 22, our team distributed 500 bundles across Ard al-Saraya and al-Falah camps - enough for approximately 2,500 people, at a total cost of $1,140 after 11% transfer commission.
Bread is one essential part of what families need to survive. As winter approaches, they need safe shelter, warmth, food, and continued support.
Please donate to our Food and Water Campaign so we can keep showing up for them.

Two hours for an ambulance to arrive for a man who had a stroke. This is the reality for Palestinians in Gaza every single day.

Transport is a massive issue in Gaza and one of the most demanded service that we provide. The Sameer Project gets daily requests for more buses to transport students, doctors, nurses, teachers and more. Sadly we aren’t able to expand due to lack of funds.
Currently, The Sameer Project runs 9 buses but we’d love to do more. Help us achieve that by giving to our General Fund today: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

This is the sound of terror.
Support Gaza now: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
The military occupation’s warships sped back and forth just off Gaza’s coast today, tormenting residents, and firing indiscriminately toward tent encampments. At any moment, a bullet could kill a child, wound an elderly person, or tear through the only shelter a family has.
More than a year since the “ceasefire,” Palestinians are still being terrorized. Still being killed. Every single day. The Israeli occupation violates the “ceasefire” EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Listen to what families are forced to endure. Then ask what this “ceasefire” has meant for them.

We’ve introduced you to Bashir before. We see him during our water distributions in Gaza City - a young boy carrying responsibilities no child should have to bear.
Give to Gaza: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
Bashir has lost hair from a nervous system reaction, linked to the stress of bombing and displacement. He has been told to stay calm. But how can a child stay calm when every day includes fetching water his family needs to survive? Where is the chance to recover when the fear never ends? His dream is to see his hair grow back. He deserves the safety, care, and ordinary childhood that should come with that dream.
Bashir’s determination moves us. But children should never have to be this strong. Support The Sameer Project’s Food and Water Campaign so we can bring more water to families and ease the burden children like Bashir carry every day: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…

Does a parent pay for food for their children or transportation to a medical appointment? What happens when there isn’t enough money for both?
Give to Gaza: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
When every shekel goes toward survival, families cannot spare the bus fare - even when missing an appointment means going without essential treatment.
The Sameer Project’s free buses help ease that burden, taking people to hospitals, medical appointments, and rehabilitation, along with trips to the market and the ability to visit family. Your support helps parents feed their children and reach the care they need.
Transportation is lifesaving. Help us keep these buses running by becoming a monthly donor to our General Find link: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

Walking to school should never mean risking your life. But in Gaza, children navigate roads covered in rubble, sharp metal, and scattered shrapnel. Damaged buildings crumble along the roadside, and near the yellow-line, gunfire can be heard close by.
Support here: justgiving.com/page/thesamee…
Listenl to Sumaya’s story. No child should have to face these dangers just to reach a classroom! And no child should have to make that journey without proper shoes.
On October 20, our team distributed 285 pairs of shoes and 288 pairs of socks to children at Dar Al Huda School in the Beit Lahia Project area, with support from our partners at Small Steps Project. The shoes, socks, and transportation cost $3,573 after commission.
A pair of shoes cannot remove the dangers surrounding these children. But it can protect their feet and ease one daily hardship as they hold on to their education through the genocide.
Please donate so we can reach more children with the essentials they deserve. Their determination to learn must be met with our determination to support them. Donate to our General Fund and thank you again Small Steps: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

After years of deprivation, families in Gaza deserve meals that nourish them. A full stomach matters. So does what fills it.
Help fund our kitchen: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
In our The Sameer Project kitchen, we put care into every meal, from the ingredients and preparation to the portions we serve. We want families to receive food with variety, protein, and dignity after so long without enough of any of them.
But cooking with meat and chicken costs more. Keeping this quality on families’ plates depends on your support.
On September 27, our kitchen prepared and distributed 542 meals of rice with kofta (ground meat). We delivered 521 meals to Beit Lahia Camp in Al-Zawaida, and 21 meals to Civil Defense crews in Nuseirat. The total cost was $1,464 after commission of 11%.
Help us keep cooking food that supports health and gives families something to look forward to. Please donate to our Food and Water link: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…

Spiced rice and chicken breast simmered with onions. A meal that looks good wherever you live. But imagine what it means to receive it after years of deprivation, when meat and chicken have become luxuries your family cannot afford, or that is simply not available anywhere. Support here: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
Imagine seeing our distribution team arrive with a freshly cooked meal from The Sameer Project Kitchen, knowing your children will eat something nourishing today.
On September 26, our kitchen prepared and distributed 520 rice and chicken breast meals to families at Al-Amal 3 Camp in Al-Zawayda area, for a total of $1,239 after 11% commission fees.
The occupation’s closures of the crossings disrupt supplies and send ingredient prices fluctuating. Our team has to plan around that uncertainty, while families still need to eat every day.

A key issue that Palestinians in Gaza tell us about are the old and moldy jerrycans. After three years into genocide, many families can’t afford buying new jerrycans! Support here: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
The military occupation allows in a small trucks into Gaza daily, and some jerrycans do come in. The Sameer Project buys them from the market and distributes them to underserved camps.
There are so many ways to help and this is one of the critical ways to do so. It helps prevent disease and provides a clean source of water for people.

Good morning.
Give to Gaza: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
What does your day begin with?
An alarm?
Coffee?
Messages?
Getting ready for work?
In Gaza, the morning may begin with a much simpler, much harsher question:
Where will we find water today?
Then comes the next one:
What will we eat?
And then the day begins.
Searching.
Waiting.
Walking.
Carrying water containers.
Returning with whatever was available.
Then figuring out how to make it last for the whole family.
This man, in his fifties, is not looking for comfort or anything extra.
He is simply trying to find enough water for his family to make it through another day.
And somewhere else in the world, water is already there before you even wake up.
That is the reality.
An entire day built around a question that should never have to be asked in the first place:
Will we find water today?

Tomorrow, Australia joins a global strike against war.
On Friday, Australia’s Maritime Workers Union (MUA) in Melbourne will join dockworkers at 111 ports in 22 countries and regions on five continents who will stop work in a coordinated strike against war.
▪️More than 25 dockworkers’ unions have now signed on, in over 200 ports from Marseille to Mumbai, Hamburg to Montevideo, Melbourne to Oakland.
▪️Their demand is simple: no weapons and no military cargo through their ports — without the workers who load and unload it, nothing moves.
▪️The unions point to escalating wars in Ukraine and the Middle East and the danger of a generalized war.
▪️They condemn Israel’s new crimes in Hebron, carried out with the backing of the US, NATO and the EU.
▪️Israel’s lockdown of the city is now in its sixth day, with more than 3,000 Palestinians displaced, according to the UN. Palestinian unions have endorsed Friday’s action.
▪️The unions are calling on workers and young people everywhere to stand with the dockworkers, saying:
“Ports for peace and the peoples, not launching-pads for war.”
NEW: On Friday, dockworkers at 111 ports in 22 countries and regions on five continents will stop work in a coordinated strike against war, according to the most recent information from the organizing unions.
More than 25 dockworkers’ unions have now signed on, from Marseille to Mumbai, Hamburg to Montevideo, Melbourne to Oakland. Days ago the count stood at about 100 ports in 17 countries, and that figure doesn’t include the dozens of unions in other sectors that have pledged support. Their demand is simple: no weapons and no military cargo through their ports. Nearly everything the world ships passes through the docks, and without the workers who load and unload it, nothing moves.
In France, the main dockers’ union says the country’s ports will be 95% shut. Italy, India, Greece and Turkey face 24-hour strikes, and Morocco and Cyprus will see stoppages of up to two hours, with rallies planned in port cities around the world. In Greece, metalworkers, ship-repair workers and young people are joining the dockers, and in the US, ILWU Local 10 is striking in Oakland and San Francisco. The unions are working from the Istanbul Declaration, signed in May, with each one deciding for itself how to take part. They are also fighting for their own jobs, against cuts from automation and for contracts, raises, shorter hours and safety.
The unions point to escalating wars in Ukraine and the Middle East and the danger of a generalized war. They condemn Israel’s new crimes in Hebron, carried out with the backing of the US, NATO and the EU. Israel’s lockdown of the city is now in its sixth day, with more than 3,000 Palestinians displaced, according to the UN. Palestinian unions have endorsed Friday’s action.
In Italy, the fight has spilled beyond the docks. The union USB has called for a nationwide general strike. Last night, the Italian government ordered transport workers back on the job last night. USB said it would defy the order and accept the steep penalties.
The unions are calling on workers and young people everywhere to stand with the dockworkers, saying “Ports for peace and the peoples, not launching pads for war.”
I’m reporting from Calabria, Italy, and I will be in Genoa tomorrow ahead of the strike to report on the ground during the mobilzation.

Flour has told the story of the genocide in Gaza.
Support Gaza now: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
White grains of milled wheat stained red with the blood of martyrs. Children shot while trying to secure a bag for their families’ survival. Mothers sifting mold and insects from flour because there is nothing else to bake with.
This is manufactured starvation. The occupation has turned a basic necessity into something Palestinians risk their lives to obtain. Families face hunger, then danger as they search for anything that might keep them alive.
Inside The Sameer Project’s bakery, our team keeps kneading, baking, and preparing bundles of bread to distribute free to families. Here on September 28, we continue the daily work - your donations make this possible. Around $1,200 funds one day of our bakery’s operations, with costs changing as prices fluctuate. Every day we can keep baking means more families have bread to eat.
Help fund the next day. Donate to our Food and Water Campaign and keep our bakery running: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…

People in Gaza were dying trying to secure a bag of flour to feed their families. We cannot allow Gaza to return to that. Support here: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
Just days ago, a bag of flour cost 160 shekels and was nearly impossible to find. Today, the price has dropped to around 80 shekels as limited supplies have entered. But when the Israeli occupation can close the crossings on a whim, hunger is always one decision away.
This father lost his wife and son to the genocide. Another son was injured trying to obtain flour during the famine. Families cannot be torn apart as they try to survive.
On September 17, The Sameer Project distributed 518 bundles of bread across three camps in West Jabalia, reaching approximately 2,590 people. The total cost was just $1,211 after 11% commission fees included.
Our bakery must be prepared for whatever comes next. We cannot wait for flour to disappear again before we act.

A father caring for two children with cerebral palsy, with no support system left. Before the genocide, his children had access to specialized programs, medical care, and services that supported their development. Today, those services are gone. He has been left to manage their care alone while struggling to provide even the most basic necessity: food. Help here: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
This is the reality for countless families in Gaza caring for children with disabilities. Families who were already vulnerable have lost nearly every form of support they once depended on.
On September 13, The Sameer Project kitchen distributed 451 meals of rice and kofta. Of those, 431 meals went to displaced families in Al-Karm Camp in Deir Al Balah seen here, and 20 were delivered to Civil Defense workers. The total cost after 11% transfer fees was $1,306.
For less than $3, you can take one burden off a parent already carrying more than anyone should have to bear. Help us keep our kitchen running. Families like his are depending on us. Donate to The Sameer Project’s Food and Water Campaign: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
