This elderly man in Gaza is right. The military occupation has more power. They killed his son and destroyed his home, just like they did to hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza. Give to Gaza: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… Where does this power come from? From our taxes. The taxes of people living in the Global North, and particularly of those living in the United States. The US alone gives the military occupation $3.8 billion per year. So yes, Palestinians have less power, and it’s because we are up against a whole system designed to oppress us. It is our duty, those outside of Gaza, to provide material support and to advocate and pressure for the end of genocide, no matter what it takes.

Palestinians know. They know the sacrifice that the Lebanese people have done. They know that the Spanish are standing by their side. They know that the hearts of Jordanian and Egyptian people are with Gaza. Give to Gaza: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… Governments across the world are complicit with the genocide in Gaza but the nations are rising for the truth, for humanity, for liberation. And Palestinians in Gaza know that. So we need to keep going, keep pressuring, keep fighting. The Sameer Project team in our bakery gave their opinions on who supports Gaza the most.

Even when an appointment, treatment, or essential outing cannot be missed, this man explains a devastating reality: if transportation is not available, they simply cannot go. Support Gaza now: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… How are the elderly supposed to walk kilometers upon kilometers in the heat? How are children, people with disabilities, the sick, or anyone already exhausted by displacement supposed to walk miles to reach what they need - and then walk all the way back home?! Transportation determines whether someone can reach a doctor, get to school, collect necessities, or simply move through their own community. The Sameer Project provides Palestinians in Gaza with something that should never have been taken from them: freedom of movement. Your donations keep our buses moving and help people reach the places they need to survive. We need YOU to continue to show up and become a monthly, consistent donor to our General Fund: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… Other ways to donate include: paypal.me/mahertali (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "GENERAL") account.venmo.com/u/Maher-Al… (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "GENERAL")

Palestinians in Gaza are demanding water and as this hajje is saying they need even more than water. They need packages of food and supplies. Support now: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… The Sameer Project serves thousands everyday but it’s not enough. The need in Gaza is extremely high because everyone is in need. All basic needs are limited or lacking. Our key initiative at The Sameer Project is food and water but we also have a medical campaign with two clinics, a general fund for tents and transport, Refaat Alareer Campaign for our two camps and school, and our rebuild Gaza campaign for building toilets and preparing camps for winter. No matter how much we do, there’s always more to do. Providing aid in Gaza feels like pouring water into a cup full of holes. Every time we close one hole, ten others appear. Help us keep up with the need by giving to our Food & Water Campaign: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… Other ways to donate include: paypal.me/mahertali (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "WATER") account.venmo.com/u/Maher-Al… (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "WATER")

When we ask Palestinians in Gaza about the situation they’re living in, they commonly start with saying that they are not leaving. Three years of ongoing genocide and sacrifice will not end with Palestinians being ethnically cleansed from Gaza. “They support us but no aid from the organizations reaches us” - support now: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… This is the sad truth. Aid is not reaching people. Some is blocked from entering the Strip by the military occupation and the trucks have been parked for months, if not years. Other aid is stolen and sold in markets. And also some aid is given through wasta (connections) due to internal corruption that is sadly common in aid organizations. The Sameer Project targets the most underserved and marginalized camps and groups. We purchase the aid inside Gaza and distribute it fairly and with dignity. In April 2025, The Sameer Project opened our first bakery and we make more than 5,000 loaves per day. On September 16th, we gave out 400 bags of bread in Deir El Balah to the following camps: Karama Camp, Sabereen Camp and Karam Camp. Cost for the bread was $2.45 bags so around $976, including the 11% commission.

If The Sameer Project does not show up, these patients do not receive their lifesaving chronic disease medications. It is that simple. Your donations give us the ability to keep chronic illnesses from becoming medical emergencies: chuffed.org/project/136892-m… On August 31, our medical team returned to the Life and Freedom Camp near Al-Nasr Al-Arabi Club in North Gaza for our third chronic disease follow-up visit. Here, 46 patients were examined and received free medication for conditions including hypertension, diabetes, asthma, atrial fibrillation, ischemic heart disease, and other chronic illnesses. And our team conducted blood pressure and blood sugar checks, individual consultations, health assessments, and education to help patients manage their conditions under extraordinarily difficult circumstances. But what matters most is that we came back. Patients told us they now rely on our Mobile Medical Day visits for their follow-up care and medications. You help us prevent emergencies. You help us return. You help us keep people stable, treated, and alive. Each medical day costs approximately $700. Help us continue to show up.

Gaza is in pain. If water is provided, people need jerrycans, and if jerrycans are provided people need hygiene products, and so on. The catastrophe is huge and around 2 million Palestinians are suffering. Help here: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… The Sameer Project is considered a large mutual aid group compared to the ones in Gaza. We provide half a million liters on average per day. That number is similar to those of international organizations. The difference is that The Sameer Project doesn’t take institutional money, we don’t take money with conditions. All our donations come from YOU, from the people, and you allowing us to provide large scale aid with much less money than international organizations. Yes, Gaza is suffering but we are not helpless.

Listen to what Palestinians are asking for. Listen when they tell you what they need. Give to Gaza: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… Why aren’t more organizations providing transportation across Gaza to relieve the suffering of trying to move through destroyed roads, rubble, and devastation just to reach a hospital, an appointment, work, or basic services? The Sameer Project listens - and we act. Right now, we are operating 6 bus routes across Gaza. At capacity, we were running 9 routes throughout the day, including 2 essential routes to hospitals. We need to get back to full capacity - and expand beyond it. Operating our transportation program at capacity costs more than $3,000 every single day. But this is what Palestinians are telling us they need. Palestinians know their own needs best. Our responsibility is to listen, respond, and put resources directly behind what they are asking for.

Gaza’s schools are open again 🎉 Support here: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… After a two week delay due to the heat, schools in Gaza are finally open again. The Sameer Project and Small Steps Project (@smallstepsdocs) are providing support to various schools across the Gaza Strip. On September 21st, The Sameer Project gave out 104 stationary sets to children in the Sumood Kindergarten, Beit Lahia. Each set included a ruler, eraser, sharpener, notebooks, colors, pencils and a juice box 🧃 The cost was around $302 with 11% commission. So a set is only $3 and we would like to also provide bagpacks and shoes to schools in Gaza. Can you help us make this happen?

Mashallah, the pride and joy in our hearts as we see our Palestinian youth in Gaza innovate and create solutions and projects despite the ongoing genocide! Support Gaza here: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… This incredible event was the result of the hardwork of Tech From Palestine (@tech_from_palestine) and groups like @nex.tgenedu, @gazakids_coderdojo and @astro_camp.ps (Instagram links). Palestinian groups coming together to make miracles in the heart of chaos! The Sameer Project also wanted to support this important day, so we provided 8 buses taking the students to the hackathon and back home. The cost was around $2,231 that were used from our General Fund. Collaborative work is essential and at The Sameer Project we invest in community and the benefit of our people. We are hoping to support more events and work of Palestinian-led groups in Gaza.

“You have to leave your mark, you have to make your presence felt” Education is power. Education is resistance. Education is our weapon. Support education here: chuffed.org/project/113327-r… The Hasan School by The Sameer Project provides education to more than 900 students in Gaza. And unlike last year, we now have a high school department. The genocide in Gaza never ended and is about to complete three years in suffering and pain but hope still exists. Hope in our youth for a future, to become teachers, doctors, nurses, engineers, lawyers, and more! We thank you deeply from our heart for allowing us to provide an education, for allowing us to provide a future and hope to kids in Gaza. No words can describe the immense impact that you’re making in the lives of 900 children! The Hasan School needs your consistent support to keep operating.

Many go for the “safer” option and donate to large organizations but with a little research, they’ll find out that many of them don’t have any Palestinians in decision-making positions, particularly Palestinians living in Gaza. And they’ll find out that at least 50% of the donations are sitting in a bank account while Palestinians in Gaza suffer.

Mutual aid groups are not supported by institutions and governments because we don’t accept their conditions. We work for liberation and to give agency back to Palestinians.

International organizations don’t support Gaza without an agenda. They depoliticize humanitarian aid and impose Western frameworks on the communities they serve.

The reason mutual aid groups exist is to no longer exist once the emergency is over. But international organizations need catastrophes and poverty to continue to keep making their high salaries.

Mutual aid groups exist because the focus is on immediate impact. No bureaucracy. No red tape. No conditional funding. Just aid to the people, as quick as possible.

Where you place your monetary solidarity matters. Donate now: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… Gaza is suffering now. People cannot wait for donations to be processed, left sitting in bank accounts, or turned into future programs while they are thirsty today. The Sameer Project turns your donations into tangible relief within days. We know this because when funding dropped and we had to reduce water deliveries for just two weeks, these neighborhoods felt the consequences immediately. The suffering was instant. And no one else showed up. Here a man in the Zaytoun area near the yellow-line describes the daily struggle to access water and the hardship of surviving water scarcity. We are making a real difference right now. If you want your donation to relieve suffering immediately, give to The Sameer Project’s Food and Water Campaign: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… Other ways to donate include: paypal.me/mahertali (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "WATER") account.venmo.com/u/Maher-Al… (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "WATER")

High blood pressure, diabetes, and other chronic diseases can be silent killers. Without medication and regular follow-up, manageable conditions can become life-threatening. Please donate now: chuffed.org/project/136892-m… On August 31, The Sameer Project returned to Life and Freedom Camp near Al-Nasr Al-Arabi Club in North Gaza for our third follow-up visit. We examined 46 patients and provided free chronic disease medication. For many of these patients, they cannot access this care unless we come to them. The Sameer Project is the only program in Gaza consistently moving from camp to camp to provide ongoing chronic disease care and medication. Help us keep showing up.
