🚨 Help Evacuate Joy to Milan 🚨

Folks, I need your help once again. This time, it’s for our very own @joynewacc

As you know, Joy has been suffering through genocide and famine in Gaza and still helping others through her work with Gaza Verified. Now she has a chance at freedom as she’s been accepted for a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Milan and we’ve been able to work with the university to create a private scholarship for her.

Now we just need to fund it and she could be evacuated as soon as November and we need your help.

We need to raise $15,000 as quickly as possible.

https://chuffed.org/project/help-joy-study-in-europe

We already have a generous anonymous donor who has pledged $5,000 to match donations up to $10,000. So if you donate now, your donation will be doubled.

As I write this announcement, there’s $525 raised.

The campaign is being organised by @riverbirchtree who has been leading a team of twelve people from around the world for the past few months to arrange this and myself.

Please donate if you can and help Joy escape to safety, continue her education, and continue helping others in Gaza with Gaza Verified (https://gaza-verified.org).

And please share this far and wide.

Thank you!

@joynewacc @riverbirchtree Folks we’re almost at $5K (that’s almost one-third of the way there)… we’ve managed to raise $4,493 thanks to your kindness to get Joy evacuated to Italy so she can continue her studies at the University of Milan.

You’re making this happen.

Can we get it to $5K?

Every donation you make until $10K will be doubled by our generous anonymous donor.

So we’re really just $300 away from shooting past $5K.

Please donate if you can and please share with others so they may do the same.

Thank you so much!

@riverbirchtree Wow, we’ve just shot past $5K (we’re at $5,688) and are more than one-third of the way to our target of raising $15,000 to get @joynewacc to safety in Italy where she can continue her education at the University of Milan while also continuing her work to help her fellow Palestinians in Gaza with Gaza Verified.

Please donate if you can and please share with others so they can do they same:

Fediverse, you’re about to not only save a life but also fund her ongoing education and I love you for it!

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far and to everyone considering it.

@riverbirchtree 🥳🎉 YAY! We did it! 🥳🎉

Thanks to your amazing generosity, we’ve just hit our $15,000 goal on our fundraiser to fund @joynewacc’s private scholarship at the University of Milan and get her evacuated from Gaza next month.

With your support, we were able to to raise $15,073 in less than 24 hours.

I don’t have words enough to thank you properly :)

You are all amazing!

PS. We are going to keep the page up until the end of tomorrow in case anyone who wanted to donate hasn’t been able to yet. Any additional money raised will go directly to supporting Joy as she begins her new life in Milan and to cover any unanticipated expenses there may be during the evacuation process.
