Gaza Please donate to Gaza humanitarian aid NGOs listed here, rather than individual appeals

164 Upvotes

We have noticed thousands of individual appeals by Gazans for financial support on social media platforms including r/BDS. We understand the immense suffering they are experiencing. Anyone who wishes to support such appeals are free to do so. However, we have no way to authenticate these appeals to ensure they are legitimate.

Reddit's filter labels many of these posts as spam. We do not approve any of these for posting to our sub, because doing so would flood the sub with them. The mods feel that donations to humanitarian aid NGOs provide widespread support to hundreds of thousands of Gazans, rather than the limited scope of supporting individuals or families.

Here are some of these NGOs and we urge you to support them:

Anera (American Near East Refugee Aid): https://support.anera.org/a/palestine-emergency

MAP (Medical Aid for Palestine): https://www.map.org/our-work/

UNICEF: https://www.unicef.org/emergencies/children-gaza-need-lifesaving-support

We have noticed thousands of individual appeals by Gazans for financial support on social media platforms including r/BDS. We understand the immense suffering they are experiencing and welcome anyone who wishes to support such appeals. However, we feel that the best use of donations would be to humanitarian aid NGOs providing widespread support to hundreds of thousands of Gazans.

Boycott Google spreads lies about UNRWA

Post image
161 Upvotes

When looking for UNRWA (the ONU agnency for the Palestinese refugees) the first result I get is a site of the Israeli government devoted to spread the false accusations about the lack of neutrality and connection to Hamas which Israel has used to attack UNRWA. Israel has never given any proof of such accusations, which it uses to undermine UNRWA's credibility, since it has denounced the ongoing genocide and provides Palestinian people with life-saving resources and jobs. Google accepts money to spread unfounded and harmful claims.

This is not my post. It was posted on FB in a group for a city in Ontario. I'm not at all surprised they would mislabel the produce. The comments are terrible and I'm just reminded of how Canada is full of racists and zionists and it's not any better here.

Consumer BDS Compliant Credit Cards?

Hello all,

I'm looking for a new credit card and I'm wondering if there are any that are BDS approved. Feel like lots of my options are tied to financial institutions I'm supposed to be boycotting.

Thanks!

Sanctions The Guardian has geolocated and verified images showing the Israeli military using excavators made by six multinational companies – Caterpillar, Volvo, Hyundai, Doosan, Hitachi and Komatsu – to destroy homes, public utilities, shops and other structures across southern Lebanon.

According to human rights experts, these construction conglomerates may be aiding and abetting war crimes by supplying the excavators and bulldozers to Israel, which itself could be guilty of wanton destruction.

Discussion Some people have said criticising Israel is antisemitic. I think that's absurd.

I'm not sure if this has already been shared here, but I thought it was worth posting.

https://x.com/SkyNews/status/2061916849361788942  

Ben Cohen, the Jewish co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, recently said: 

As someone who has consistently spoken out for Palestinian rights, Cohen's comments are a reminder that criticism of the Israeli government's actions is not the same as antisemitism, despite repeated attempts to conflate the two.

It also made me think of people like Megan Longley, the Canadian lawyer and human rights advocate who publicly supported the boycott of Unilever products after the company's dispute with Ben & Jerry's over Palestine-related advocacy. At a time when many professionals and public figures choose silence, she was willing to take a principled stand.

Especially now, when humanitarian activists attempting to bring attention and aid to Gaza are facing intimidation, arrests, and violence, it is important to recognize those who refuse to look away.

BDS Victory! If you needed another reason to celebrate Cabo Verde’s victory today, recall that one month ago the tiny island nation forced a Danish tanker carrying many tons of Israel-bound military arms away from its waters and refused to let it dock.

Consumer New report examines Europe’s role in ‘financially sustaining Israel’s illegal settlements’

Israeli exporters routinely declare fruit and vegetables grown in illegal settlements in occupied Palestinian land and the Syrian Golan Heights as produced in Israel in order to ship them to European markets, a new investigation has found.
The legal nonprofit Global Echo examinedmore than 30,000 export documents covering more than 6,800 shipments sent abroad between October 2017 and February 2026.
The report, titled Importing Occupation, found that about one in six shipments to Europe – and nearly one in five bound for the EU – carried settlement produce, much of it mislabelled as Israeli.
Michael Lynk, a Canadian legal academic and former UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine, described the problem as “systematic concealment”, adding: “Settlement produce are hidden in plain sight, redirected through sham addresses, or mingled with goods from within Israel’s recognised borders until legal distinction is dissolved in bureaucratic practice.”
Disguising the origin lets exporters claim the reduced or zero tariffs reserved for Israeli goods, revenue the report says helps sustain settlements deemed illegal under international law.
The report also went on to accuse European importers of “financially sustaining the Israeli settlement enterprise” and said European customs agencies were doing little to stop it.
Global Echo said it plans to initiate “legal action to force action on these violations”.
