We appreciate any symbolic support of our marriage and we would like to encourage you to instead support families and the people of Palestine who have undergone over 77 years of occupation & colonization. After almost 3 years of heavy bombardment, loss of over 50,000 civilians, & mass forced starvation it is imperative that we do not forget that we are living through an ongoing genocide and they need our continued help. In lieu of a registry we ask that you choose one of the mutual aid links below and donate. Any amount is sincerely appreciated. During our wedding weekend we would like to put emphasis that it is a privilege that we all get to be together to celebrate but not forget that we must continue to fight for a free Palestine. Thank you in advance for your support.
HEAL PALESTINE
“At HEAL Palestine, we envision a Palestine where every child and young adult has access to quality healthcare, education, urgent aid, and opportunities to thrive.
We believe in addressing the urgent medical needs of injured and sick children, building up health services, educating the next generation of leaders, and nurturing the potential of Palestinian youth, helping them develop into confident, informed, and compassionate individuals who can contribute to their communities and beyond.”
PALHumanity
North Gaza is facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. Families have lost everything - homes, loved ones, and access to basic necessities. Even in the face of devastation, the people remain resilient and full of hope, and we are committed to standing with them. Our Mission: Immediate Relief & Sustainable Support. How You Can Help: We hope to raise $50,000 for medical aid and $100,000 to support clean water access, food security, and shelter initiatives. Every donation is a lifeline for families in desperate need.
Your support can:
✅ Provide clean water deliveries
✅ Build desalination stations
✅ Deliver food and shelter to displaced families
✅ Supply essential medical aid and emergency care
✅ Restore access to education and rebuild stability
The Peoples Forum
Wilson and I have been going to The Peoples Forum led- free educational panels, protests, & mutual aid volunteer events (as a volunteer with Pica Pica) during our tenure in New York. They are a coalition that we have looked to for guidance, education, and safety. They have been a critical voice of New Yorkers screaming for a Free Palestine.
In their words: The Peoples forum is an activist led coalition based out of Midtown, Manhattan that is an incubator for working class and marginalized communities to build unity across historic lines of division at home and abroad. We are an accessible educational and cultural space that nurtures the next generation of visionaries and organizers who believe that through collective action a new world is possible.
Without fiscal donations it is hard for the physical space to exist as well as things such as sending mutual aid to Palestine and buses to DC for mass protesting.
