VETTED CAMPAIGNS LOW ON FUNDS

VETTED CAMPAIGNS LOW ON FUNDS

Hello! My friend Mohamed @moayesh has sent me some campaigns that he has personally vetted, and which are very low on funds and need our support. Mohamed helps run the blog @gaza-evacuation-funds, and personally verifies many campaigns on the ground in Gaza. He's doing important work, and I encourage you to follow this blog in order to keep supporting Palestinians in need of our help. Here is a link to a post in which you can see Mohamed personally vetting a campaign on the ground.

I was able to donate €5/$5 USD/$5 AUD to a few campaigns that are in desperate need of our help, and I am hoping that in making this post I will be able to encourage at least one other person to match just one of my donations. If you can match one of my donations, it would be incredibly helpful if you could reblog this post and encourage others to do the same. I am hopeful that we will be able to get some momentum going for some people who really need our assistance.

Here are the campaigns. I encourage you to read the gofundme pages I have linked, as I cannot accurately convey all the loss that these individuals have experienced in a single post without it becoming incredibly long.

Aboud and his family. €115/€20,000 (payment through PayPal available)

Ahmed and his family €2,082/€30,000 (payment through PayPal available)

Shahed and her family $137 AUD/$70,000 AUD

Nada and her family $125 USD/$40,000 USD (payment through PayPal and Venmo available)

Qusai and his family €225/€50,000 (payment through PayPal available)

Mostafa and his family €90/€20,000 (payment through PayPal available)

Please, please reblog this! I humbly ask you to consider matching even one of these donations. Not only will you be providing material help to families in dire need, but you will be giving them hope for the future. Thank you all for taking the time to read this. Let's work together to make a positive difference!

The SS Warrimoo, a passenger steamship traveling from Vancouver to Australia, was silently knifing its way across the mid-Pacific waters. The navigator had just finished calculating a star fix and handed the results to Captain John DS. Phillips.

The Warrimoo's coordinates were LAT 0º 31' N, LONG 179 30' W. The date was December 31, 1899. "Know what this means?" First Mate Payton announced, "We're only a few miles from the intersection of the Equator and the International Date Line."

Captain Phillips was prankish enough to seize the opportunity to do the nautical feat of a lifetime. He summoned his navigators to the bridge to double-check the ship's position. He altered his course slightly to focus directly on his target. He then altered the engine's speed.

The calm weather and clear night worked to his advantage. At midnight, the SS Warrimoo rested on the Equator, exactly where it had crossed the International Date Line. The ramifications of this odd arrangement were numerous.

The ship's bow was in the Southern Hemisphere, in the middle of summer. The stern was in the Northern Hemisphere, in the midst of winter. The date on the aft portion of the ship was December 31, 1899. The date on the forward half of the ship was January 1, 1900. The ship experienced multiple days, months, years, seasons, and centuries simultaneously.
