With all the #Gaza #Donation stuff, and now the #GazaVerified program putting forward people who have, from what I understand, had some level of vetting (though I don't know enough to say it's enough), I'm still not feeling like these personal, #MutualAid style #donations can really be effective.
The #Genocide campaign the #Israeli government is waging against the #Palestinian people is not going to be deterred by donations to the families they are starving and depriving of healthcare, nor does this do anything to hold merchants and smugglers accountable for #profiteering on the violent actions of the #Netanyahu regime, nor does it do anything to support the #charity organizations where people are risking their lives to run supplies through blockades and render aid to people in an active #EthnicCleansing zone where #AidWorkers and #journalists are a target of military violence.
I just don't see the point, pragmatically, of giving a handful of people a few dollars...

Today, #humanitarians face increasing dangers, with #AidWorkers facing multiple threats, from instability in conflict zones to natural disasters worsened by climate change. #WorldHumanitarianDay, observed on August 19, brings attention to the severity of the risks that #HumanitarianWorkers endure and their unwavering dedication to service despite these dangers.
In #Asia, numerous humanitarian organisations overcome these challenges to address the needs of the region’s most vulnerable populations. Apart from providing emergency aid, including food, shelter and medical care, these organisations also build resilience among Asian communities by promoting sustainable development through equitable access to education and opportunities. More than this, they prove that hope and human dignity can prevail over any crisis.

Israeli forces have carried out at least eight strikes on aid workers’ convoys and premises in Gaza since October 2023, even though aid groups had provided their coordinates to the Israeli authorities to ensure their protection.
Israeli authorities did not issue advance warnings to any of the aid organizations before the strikes, which killed or injured at least 31 aid workers and those with them.#Israel #Gaza #AidWorkers #WarCrimes #HRW

Fundraiser update: Hot meals 4 Starved Palestinian Kids in north Gaza
May 5th, 2024
by Hani Almadhoun, Organizer
"Salam and hello,
"Thank you for being here; your presence means a lot, especially to the families and children in #Gaza, both in #Rafah and in #BaitLahia.
"I've attached pictures from the last 48 hours at three of our service points. Just a reminder, we have two kitchens in the north and one food parcel partner, all in the north, and a soup kitchen in the south at Rafah, operating from a tent and serving thousands of internally displaced #Palestinians.
"Today, the Rafah kitchen cooked up a zucchini stew with meat and provided meals for 200 families. However, they informed me that there are still a hundred families going home without food. So, we've agreed to add another pot, making it six pots from the original two. I'm impressed by how the team in Rafah operates like a tight-knit crew, with everyone contributing ideas alongside their hard work. Despite losing their head Chef ten days ago, Roa, Rania, and Alaa are doing an outstanding job. For instance, when we got delayed in sending money, they improvised by preparing colorful pudding fortified with milk and nutrients, despite the heat and keeping the door open.
"In addition, in the north, we've sent additional funds for the two soup kitchens and food parcels from what's available. The women-led kitchen works four days a week, and they'll be working tomorrow, baking and preparing for food distribution. This group of women values each other's company and the opportunity to help other women, creating a safe space for each other. For example, even though the kitchen didn't operate today, half of its staff supported the original kitchen by helping bake Riqaq bread, layering seasoned rice, and adding garnish. Needless to say, the original kitchen elevated their game today with a rice Fatta dish that provided 350 meals, including delivery to a shelter center for people with disabilities. You'll see pictures from today's distribution attached.
"Lastly, we've completed a dozen food parcel distributions today for families in need. This week, we intend to distribute 100 bags of flour to families who can use them to share meals together.
"None of what we do would be possible without you and your attention. Keep advocating for a #ceasefire."

The #FaceTheNation host is really good about asking why 'white' #aidworkers drew more international attention (not her words, but that was her point)
