RE: mastodon.ar.al/@aral/116130113…
Folks, I really want to see Aseel and her family safe in the apartment they’ve found and out of the precarity of life in a tent.
We’ve got 15 patrons, including me, who’ve pledged to pay $520 of the $600 a month they need for the rent.
We just need maybe two or three more patrons to pledge to pay the remaining $80/month among them.
He moment we have the pledges in, they’ll be able to move.
So what do you say? Your patronage will literally put a roof over a Gazan family’s head.
If you’d like to pledge a monthly amount, please either reply publicly to this thread or directly to me if you’d like to remain anonymous. Once we hit our goal, I’ll be in touch so we can coordinate our monthly payments.
Even if you can’t help financially, sharing this post might get it in front of someone who can.
Thank you!
💕
(I’m off to bed now but hopefully I can deliver some good news to Aseel when I wake in the morning.) :)
*** Fully funded. Thank you 💕 ***[Pledged: $600/month of $600/month. Patrons: 17]
Let’s try something different: Looking for pledges to become patrons for one of our volunteers at Gaza Verified*, @aseelfromgz, so we can move her and her family out of living in a damp, unsafe tent and into an apartment.
Aseel’s family needs to pay $600/month rent if they’re to afford the apartment they’ve found. And I’d like them to not have to worry if they’re going to be homeless again next month if they can’t raise enough from the kindness of strangers every month.
So let’s try something new: If you’re willing and able to become a patron and pledge to donate a set amount so they can afford this apartment, please reply to this thread.
I’ll start us off: I pledge to become a regular patron and donate $50/month to help cover Aseel’s rent.
If 11 of you match my pledge, we can move Aseel and her family out of a tent and into the safety of a real home.
What do you say? :)

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •Just woke up to another anonymous patron for Aseel with a $50/month pledge :) Thank you so much! This leaves us with just one $30/month pledge (or three $10/month pledges?) to hit our $600/month goal that will cover Aseel and her family’s ongoing rent so they can move out of the precarity of their tent and into the relative safety and stability of an apartment.
Can we get this over the line today.
The moment we’ve secured enough pledges, they can move.
Thank you all so much for getting us this far :)
