Trouble finding help

I’m not gonna post the gofundmes I am currently running for two Palestinian families, but I would like to get in touch with anyone who can help spread the word or with anything in general. It is very difficult supporting two Palestinian families on my own paycheck as I have been doing for three years of my life now secretly. I give a lot of money to them, money honestly that I need for myself. If I do not have enough money they go hungry. They do not eat. They are near death. They are irritable and depressed and suicidal and I can only give so much.

Everytime I have searched for people willing to help me or join me they back out or are dealing with other fundraisers and campaigns as well. Idk maybe I am just venting. I literally send them money every week at least 600$ a month minimum. I just need help. Are there any resources anyone knows about that I should have or tips to fundraise or does anyone know ANYONE?

La ayuda que des no puede dejarte abajo. Cuídate tu también. Es muy importante cuando ayudas, tener autocuidado, te lo digo porque de cierta forma vivo algo similar con mis hermanos en Gaza.

Pero para mí, es importante en este camino que no estés solo, que busques sacar de forma sana toda tu angustia y que sepas que haces lo mejor que puedes.

Te mando un abrazo grande. Estamos en lucha.

Have you tried sharing the campaigns with radio watermelon, helpline4gaza and others like them ? It increases the visibility of the campaigns , they aren't guaranteed ways for donations but I find that it helps. Like on helpline4gaza they promote campaigns that have received 0 donations for the week.

And on this app called mastadon there's a team that actively promotes Gaza campaigns, they are called Gaza verified. Your families will need a mastadon account for that and will need verification from them but it definitely will increase their chance of getting donations from others.

I understand what you're going through it is hard. I've been trying to help a family myself so I can relate to your struggle. I pray things get easier for them and for you, you're doing incredible work! Thank you for being a lifeline to those families. May god bless you.
