A pale purple graphic with the texture of linen, and an ink sketch of a purple watercolor rose. The title says "Safey for Ruaa" and is decorated with red tatreez olive leaves. The text says: "Ruaa alone provides for a family of seven, including her sick sister—she is exhausted, in pain, and reliant on strangers for help. Give this family hope for better days. Make a weekly recurring donation to stand by them every week, and lift the burden from young Ruaa's shoulders." In the corner says tinyurl.com/For-Ruaa.

From Ruaa:
We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, and my family is in urgent need of regular support and donations. Unfortunately, I am unable to stay online consistently to promote and share my campaign as I used to.

We’re back with SPARKS FOR SPARK SPACE!

Last weekend we swung ten new £5 pledges to keep this workspace open for hundreds of families working & studying online. Not just survival: autonomy, dignity, and resilience.

The BBC’s decision to cut this section of Akinola Davies Jr’s speech when the Baftas was broadcast later in the day is shameful.

My friend Lama needs your help. As soon as she can get out of Gaza, she wants to continue her education in the UK or in Ireland. She has a few scholarships already, but sadly this won´t be enough. Please support her if you can. Thank you. chuffed.org/project/1682...

Keep Hope Alive: a Gaza Giving Circle We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK, led by two sisters passionate about helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We saw that…

Every week, over two hundred folks help sustain six families. This means survival for Mohamed, his siblings, & their parents, still displaced, still reliant on help.

Can you join in with a weekly coffee for their food & more? Give/find their link here. chuffed.org/project/hope...

Help the Abdelwahed family survive I'm helping my friend, Akram Abdelwahed, raise funds to help his family survive.

Severe illness, a crumbling house, and lapsing education: help this family cope with mounting burdens. Akram can't be on here as much to ask for help (and he shouldn't have to ask in the first place!).

Every ounce helps: chuffed.org/project/help...

Even if I could type this, I don’t have space to describe all the survival needs of these twenty-one families.

OR how much you help.

Hit "weekly" to join over two hundred folks sustaining support. It means food, water, baby supplies, shelter, + more.

My children keep asking:
“Are we staying here, Baba?”

I want to answer with certainty.💔

We are £315 away from securing this month’s rent.
Your kindness turns uncertainty into safety. 🙏

Thank you for being part of our story.❤️

Help the Abdelwahed family survive I'm helping my friend, Akram Abdelwahed, raise funds to help his family survive.

You all know Akram, who's had one of the oldest accounts on here (of anyone!). He's still the sole provider for his five siblings and mother, and he relies on our help to alleviate this burden and help them survive. Help make their shelter livable: chuffed.org/project/help...

No organic support in three days. But we’re so close to having 100% pledged!! The average pledge is around £10.

The beauty of reading both Stone Circle poems on Sunday is that you really see the magnificent job @leepottspoet.bsky.social always does with pairing poems.
