We are currently having our Gaza Ramadan Appeal here, where we provide hot food and groceries directly to Gazans via our journalist friend, Mustafa Musallam (http://instagram.com/mustafa_musllm). Please donate generously as there are very few aid trucks coming into Gaza and Mustafa will buy groceries directly from Gaza to cook vats of food for Gazans from this community initiative. As always, we will update this space periodically and transparently with each donation campaign.
Massive solidarity,
Direct Funds for Gaza.
