Muhammad Khaled Relief Fundraiser for Community in Gaza

Hello friends!

(This is a new Gofundme page for Muhammad Khaled Relief. The link to the old one is here: https://gofund.me/e155a24e. I've essentially copy/pasted the bio from the last one and put it here, with a few updates to the information.)

My name is Anne Marie Salgado, I'm on Miwok/Yokut land in so called California, United States, and I'm hosting a campaign for Muhammad Khaled, a 22-year-old Palestinian activist living in the Deir al-Balah region of now occupied Gaza. I met him via X (formerly Twitter) through my established online community. He is asking those of us who have extra funds to contribute to this GoFundMe page, so he can redistribute them and use them to feed folks in his community.

As most of you already know, Palestinians in Gaza are experiencing extreme violence and starvation under the colonial occupier of Israel and have been for over 75 years. Since the beginning of October 2023, the settler state of Israel has murdered at least 41,615 people in Gaza, including nearly 16,500 children, with more than 96,359 people injured and more than 10,000 missing (data from Gaza Ministry of Health as of Sept. 30th, sourced from Al Jazeera). The settler state of Israel has blocked the majority of aid from entering the Gaza strip, and have targeted schools, hospitals, churches, and other safe havens for civilians in the name of "defending against terrorism". Israel the occupier uses propaganda to spread lies about the reality of their intentions and the situation, while targeting journalists who seek to tell the truth (over 100 journalists killed by Israeli Occupying Forces). The situation is: these tactics are part of a genocide that the settler state of Israel is carrying out against Palestinians.

This fund will directly benefit folks experiencing the most violence right now. These funds will be used to purchase food, water, medication, and PPE for folks in Muhammad's community. The funds from this fundraiser will go to my bank account, and I'll send them to Muhammad via Paypal. Gofundme does take a portion of the funds for "fees", so if you want to bypass that, feel free to donate via PayPal directly. My PayPal account for direct donations is [email redacted] (please notate "for Muhammad" for donations).

This is a drop in the ocean for how much aid Palestinians in Gaza actually need, but any amount sent makes a positive impact. Please share this fund as much as possible, and contribute what you can!

Muhammad is also raising funds to get himself and his family out of Gaza. Please consider contributing to/sharing this gofundme as well: https://gofund.me/5b75edd1

Ceasefire now, but it is not enough. Palestine must be free.
