Finally, today, August 29, 2026, Ibrahim has sent us these exciting photos.
It’s been difficult at times, and we still have a lot of work to do to meet the campaign’s requirements. But today we want to celebrate with you that we’ve made it this far, that Ibrahim is writing to us brimming with joy, that we’ve planted a seed, and that, as a colleague said this morning, “building is so much better than destroying.”
What seemed impossible a few months ago—opening a neighborhood store in the midst of devastation—we’ve achieved, and it’s been thanks to the support of all of you. We’ll continue to keep you updated on the next steps, and as soon as September begins, we’ll start working to get your rewards to you. We also want to let you know that our support for Ibrahim and the people of Gaza doesn’t stop here. We’re continuing to raise funds through other channels to send financial support for his family’s livelihood, and there are many other ongoing campaigns with the same purpose. Please continue to contribute as much as you can. We live in a global North that crushes lives on the other side of the planet—let’s make a difference.
Thanks you all. We will continue. Today, is time to celebrate a bit.
Here some words from Ibrahim:
"your happiness makes me even happier! ❤️🥹 After everything we have been through, seeing something being built instead of destroyed means so much to me. This moment is very special for me, my family, and our community. Thank you for believing in us and for being part of this journey. We are building hope together, step by step. ❤️🙏✨"
