Support for Palestinian Refugee in Greece

Hi,

My name is Austin. I am an undergraduate student at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA. I volunteered in Greece this past autumn working with and for refugees. It was there I met a beekeeper from Gaza that left his family to find work in Greece. In Greece, like here in the US, migrant labor is necessary but easily exploitable.

We have been talking online since we met in September, and after the events of October 7 and the ongoing genocide, it has become necessary to reach out to you and do our part to assist Palestinians as they struggle to survive. Prices on goods have been skyrocketing. We were able to raise enough money for a tent (about 700 euros), which is wonderful! However, there is more work to do.

At the same time, my friend is still without long-term work. Money donated to this campaign will go to two places: my friend, so he can regain financial stability, and to his loved ones and family still in Gaza. Because of his situation, I am collecting the money on his behalf. 0% will go to a non-profit, or to me. Thank you.
