Inspired by our friends that ran Neo-Twiny Jam last year, we've decided to make a donation to the UNRWA matching the number of submissions we get for vampjamp (capping at $1,000). Currently, the UNRWA is one of the few organizations on the ground in Gaza providing aid to Palestinians, and as of this past week, the US as well as 8 other countries have suspended their funding, disregarding the over 2 million people that rely on the UNRWA's support. Donating to UNRWA will ensure that their life-saving aid can continue as they provide food, water, and medical relief to those displaced within Gaza.
If you're interested in donating, there's also the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, World Food Program's Palestine Emergency Relief Appeal, and eSims for Gaza. Earlier this month a fellow dev also ran submissions for the Palestinian Relief Bundle, which will be donating all proceeds to the PCRF and will launch in February.
If you'd like to learn more about Palestine, check out DecolonizePalestine.
I'll post proof of donation here (and over on my tumblr) once submissions close in February.
