I just got word that our campaign passed 300,000 doors knocked since we launched our volunteer field program. With all of you, we will knock more than a million doors by Election Day. This is a campaign unlike any in NYC history.

There is no time to despair. We continue to work every day to get support to our people on the ground. Esims are desperately needed, and there are multiple ways to give. Please give *generously* - there is nothing more important than helping them survive this genocide.

We have also noticed a dramatic decrease in the amount people are donating to attend our workshops. Palestinians have to rebuild their entire society. They are returning to lands without homes. We need to be working even harder to get them money!!
CEASEFIRE DOES NOT MEAN CEASE DONATIONS!!! We are hearing that folks believe that Gazans no longer pay for food and necessities. This is not true. Most people we have spoken to have not received help from any NGO & are still relying on donations, which have slowed significantly.

A lot of us don’t have extra cash to donate regularly, but we can still get creative on how to support Palestinians. Donate your time or labor or skills, or ask others you know to do so. That’s how this project started. Fulfill a need your community has and reroute the funds.

The scale of mass grassroots mutual aid across Los Angeles is unprecedented right now. We need all kinds of reporting on these efforts later. Mutual aid efforts since COVID started, support for unhoused folks facing sweeps and Palestine actions and encampments, enabled this.
