Online Auction to Benefit Gaza Relief closes February 29

Plus, an online donation campaign update from MECA

Don’t miss your chance to bid on these great donated items. (If you have already bid, you might want to check your preferred item(s) to see where you stand.)

Among the choices are lots of great gift certificates for food, spices, services, and more donated by generous local businesses; some great original artwork, jewelry, homemade wine, magazine subscriptions, books, calendars, tutoring, a photo shoot, and even a tattoo session.

As of today, the auction has raised over $5,000 but we need to raise much more for the catastrophic situation in Rafah and all of Gaza. So bid away!

 AND… a NEW GOAL for our Emergency Direct Donation Campaign

As of today, this campaign has raised over $6,700 from all sources, surpassing our initial goal of $5000.  So our new goal will be $10,000. This money goes immediately to MECA to be put to use in Rafah and elsewhere in Gaza.  A current update from MECA is below.< You can donate to this campaign here.

As the situation keeps deteriorating in Gaza including the spread of hunger, malnutrition and actual starvation, campaigns like there are critically important to undertake, even as we do everything else in our power to stop this genocidal crime against humanity.

As always, thanks for your support!
