please donate to get e-sims to gazans
gazans don’t just need these e-sims to contact the world. they need them to contact other people during their worst and loneliest hours.
i can’t even imagine how it must feel, to be so afraid and alone. to just need someone to talk to.
we often call friends and family to talk to when just we’re having a bad day. and this… these people are living day by day, unsure about the next hour, surrounded by screams, bombs, artillery and rubble.
gazans need to connect now more than ever. not just to tell their stories, but to connect to other humans. to feel a semblance of normalcy in the devastation around them. to have some sort of comfort amidst all the destruction. to be able to contact their family members and make sure they’re okay. to hear their voices. to keep their hopes and spirit alive.
please please donate. please help connect gaza. please reach out and let them know you’re there.
please keep talking about them. keep posting. keep protesting. keep connecting with them, and connecting them with the rest of the world. don’t let anyone forget what’s been happening to them for even a second. the world has spent almost a century in ignorance and silence, but not anymore!
don’t let their oppressors isolate them. israel is trying their best to break their spirit. don’t let them. we must stand with the palestinians and let them know we’re with them until the very end.
the palestinian cause is our cause. their fight is our fight.
remind them that they’re not alone. don’t you dare give up. not when they’re still fighting. and even if they stop.
don’t stop until palestine is free.

are you still taking donations for esims? I can't buy them myself directly but really want to help.
yes, I am!
for anyone unaware--I have a fund set up, and I buy esims and top them up out of that fund. I get eSims to people in Gaza (and refugees in Egypt) in three ways--via Connecting Humanity (gazaesims@gmail.com), via Gaza Online, and directly, through my contact in Gaza.
you can donate to my eSim fund through venmo (@gothhabiba), cashapp ($NajiaK), or paypal (paypal.me/Najia). use tagline "esims" or something similar, because otherwise I assume all donations are for Mohammad Abu Hamam's fundraiser.
you can also donate to eSim funds run by Crips for eSims for Gaza or Gaza Online.
if you don't have eSim money, you can still help out the effort by flyering.
Both Motaz Azaiza and Hamdan Dahdouh have reported airstrikes on the Khan Younis area of Gaza today. On his Instagram story, Hamdan stated:
"The situation in Khan Younis on the tenth day:
"No internet or any means of communication available, and airstrikes, drone attacks, and artillery bombardment persist.
"Homes are being demolished with dynamite, entire residential areas are affected, and accessing the internet is very difficult. We climb to the hospital roof to get a signal, exposing ourselves to various forms of targeting."
As Hamdan reported, communications in Gaza have been down for multiple days now. You can donate esims to Gaza to give Gazans connections for up to 30 days. The esim website itself is incredibly helpful and details exactly how to purchase the esim (instructions on how to donate are on the main page I linked first). It also gives discount codes for Holafly (5% off when you use HOLACNG) and Nomad (NOMADCNG) esim providers. @fairuzfan also has an esim tag full of discount codes to make the esims more affordable!
If after reading the instructions you're still unclear on how to send the esim, you can message me directly and I will walk you through the process. Donating esims is an easy and direct way to help those in Gaza reach the rest of the world, including their families and loved ones outside of the Strip, so if you can afford to do so, please do.

In case you lost it - a link to the eSIM donation guide. Even if you feel sick and powerless, you can at least do this. And even if you really, really can't donate, you can always at least share this and remind others.
