Since Chuffed closed — silence.

Not one donation through PayPal. Not one.

I don't say this with anger. I say it with a heavy heart, sitting in my tent in Gaza, wondering how I'll get through this week.

The need didn't stop when the link changed. The children are still here. My family is still here. The hunger is still here.

If you've been meaning to help — please. Now more than ever.

☕ I almost didn't post today.

I sat with my cup and thought — what's the point? Nobody sees us. Nobody stops scrolling, Then I remembered: some of you do stop.

Some of you have shared your coffee with me for weeks now. Strangers. Real people. Who chose — every Friday — to remember that I exist.

That's not small. That's everything.

So here I am. Again. Asking again.
Not because I'm not tired. But because you're worth showing up for too.

A thumbs up. A shy smile. Two bowls of snacks, This is happiness in Gaza right now.

Not a toy. Not a trip. Just a few colourful rings in a bowl — and these kids are glowing.

Children shouldn't have to glow over a snack. But here we are.

And here they are — still smiling. Still full of light despite everything.

Help us keep that light alive:

☕ Friday Coffee Day.

This is my mother.

While I held my coffee, she sat beside me turning old, falling-apart wool into a pillow. Thread by thread. With nothing but her hands and her will.

No store. No money. Just her refusing to give up.

We drink coffee like this every Friday — in the middle of making something from nothing.

If you're holding a warm cup right now, share it with us today by donating it's price :

☕ Happy Friday.

This is how we do Coffee Day in #gaza.

Two cups. One child. One tiny kitten who showed up uninvited — and stayed.

He didn't ask why the chair is rusty or why we sit on the ground. He just held his cup and smiled.

That smile is why I keep going. Why I keep asking.

Today is your day to join us. Donate the price of your coffee and pull up a chair at our table.

We saved you a seat. 🪑

Today the #children of the camp got snacks and juice. 🧃

Small things. Enormous smiles.

This is what your support looks like in real life — colour and sweetness in a place that has very little of either.

Prices in #gaza are impossible right now. Every bag, every juice box costs far more than it should.

We stretched every penny. But we can't do it alone next time.

Our tent is torn. The walls are falling apart.

But today, our little troublemaker turned every hole and rip into her personal playground.

She doesn't know about the war. She doesn't know about the hunger. She just knows this torn tent is the perfect hiding spot.

And for a few minutes — watching her — neither did we.
This is how we find light in the dark. In the smallest, softest things.

help us keep finding these moments:

☕ Friday Coffee Day — Week 13.

My cup. Made on a wood fire, inside a tent, in Gaza.

Last week 4 strangers joined me. 4 people who chose to care.
This week — can we make it more?

Your coffee costs €3–5.
Mine costs everything I have left to give.

For one moment, we drink together. Across the world. Across the pain.

Who's with me this Friday? ☕

4 days. No donations.

I kept waiting, kept hoping. But I have to be honest with you now.

We are struggling to eat. Food prices in Gaza have become impossible — what used to cost $1 now costs $7 or more. The bombing hasn't stopped. The fear hasn't stopped.

And I'm here, trying to hold it together for my fam and the kids.

I'm not asking for much. I'm asking for one meal. For one day.
