It is crucial for people in Gaza to stay connected. You can help!

This is an amazing and successful project by disabled people around the world, who are raising funds to get as many eSims as they can into Gaza. #Gaza
Just $48,500CAD until $2M CAD! We are running critically low on funds and the pace of spending is higher than donations at the moment!

Please share and donate if you can <3
