From the organizers:

Translating Falasteen (Palestine), in collaboration with The Sameer Project, launched a fundraising campaign to support families in Gaza facing severe hardships. Our mission is to provide essential aid to those who need it most, especially families with specific and urgent needs. The aid is bought from existing products in the market and is NOT being brought in through any border.

About Translating Falasteen

Translating Falasteen (@translating_falasteen) is a platform dedicated to translating videos from Palestine on Instagram and TikTok. Our goal is to amplify the voices of Palestinians and share their stories with a global audience. Now, we want to take our commitment a step further by providing tangible support to the people in these stories, as well as thousands of others in need, through our collaboration with The Sameer Project.

What We Do

Our aid efforts cover a wide range of necessities, including:

- Cash Aid: Direct financial support to help families manage daily expenses.

- Water Aid: Providing clean water through water trucks to areas with limited access.

- Medical Supplies: Supplying essential medications and medical devices.

- Food Aid: Delivering food packages to ensure no family goes hungry.

- Diapers and Baby Formula: Providing crucial supplies for both infants and adults with special needs.

- Other Services: Offering a variety of support based on individual family needs, such as mats, blankets, wheelchairs, and more.

How We Operate

Our dedicated team consists of four Palestinians (and other volunteers) in the diaspora, working in tandem with a ground team in Gaza to execute our operations efficiently. We meticulously assess each family's needs to ensure your generous contributions are used effectively and directly impact those in need.

Why Your Support Matters

Many families in Gaza fall through the cracks of larger aid initiatives. Their unique needs often go unnoticed and unmet. At The Sameer Project, we bridge this gap by providing personalized assistance that other organizations might overlook. Every dollar donated goes directly towards purchasing and distributing aid, ensuring that no family is left without the support they deserve.

100% of Your Donations in Action

Rest assured, 100% of your contributions will be used to deliver aid. Whether it's through direct cash aid or purchasing and distributing essential goods, your support will make a tangible difference in the lives of Gaza families.

Thank You for Your Support

Your generosity fuels our mission to bring relief and hope to those struggling in Gaza. Thank you for standing with us and helping us provide the aid that these families desperately need.

Together, we can make a significant impact. Please donate today and share our campaign with your network to amplify our efforts.
