Heart Icon Gaza Bleeds While the World Watches: A Call to Conscience

As I write these words, Gaza is no longer just a city — it is a cemetery without walls. Over 50,800 Palestinians have been officially declared dead, their names etched in grief — yet thousands more lie uncounted beneath the mountains of rubble, their bodies unreachable, their stories silenced. More than 115,000 souls have been injured, their bodies shredded by missiles, their limbs lost to the shrapnel of banned weapons, their lives forever scarred. Over 39,000 children have been orphaned, wandering a wasteland without mothers, without fathers, without homes. Babies have died in incubators without power. Children have died of thirst because Israel bombed the water tanks. Grandmothers have died clutching bread they could not eat. Thousands have been kidnapped by the Israeli army — disappeared into a brutal system where torture is common and justice is nowhere. Hospitals have been obliterated. Ambulances targeted. Refugee camps incinerated. Schools flattened. Markets turned to ash. Gaza is starving. Gaza is dying. Gaza is screaming. And yet the so-called defenders of human rights — the governments who preach freedom and dignity — have taken a vow of silence so profound, it echoes louder than the bombs.

Gaza Genocide and Silence of the West

The Cost of Silence: Gaza’s Invisible Graves

The numbers barely scrape the surface of Gaza’s suffering. Official counts list the dead, but not the missing. The silenced, the buried, the kidnapped. Gaza is not just dying — it is disappearing.

50,800+

Killed

Thousands still missing beneath rubble or in mass graves

115,000+

Injured

Critical injuries and untreated trauma

17,000+

Amputees

Many among them are innocent children

39,000+

Orphans

A generation without parents, without shelter

800,000+

Starving Children

Facing famine with no escape

“They tried to bury us. They forgot we were seeds.”

The Hidden Toll: Israeli War Crimes and the Exploitation of Palestinian Lives

Yasmina Ceric

Heart Icon The Hidden Toll: Israeli War Crimes and the Exploitation of Palestinian Lives

While much of the world remains distracted or willfully blind, I cannot — and will not — look away. As the founder of this organization and a mother, I feel the weight of what is happening to Palestinians, especially children, who are suffering under a brutal occupation that extends far beyond military aggression. Behind prison walls, in the rubble of bombed homes, and in besieged hospitals, a horrifying reality unfolds — Palestinians, including the youngest among them, have been subjected to grotesque violations of human rights, including forced medical experiments and being used as human testing grounds for weapons of war.

Organ Harvesting: A State-Sanctioned Atrocity

In 2009, I was shaken to my core when I read the report from Sweden’s Aftonbladet, alleging that Israel harvested organs from murdered Palestinians. Initially dismissed as \”anti-Semitic propaganda,\” the truth could not be hidden. Dr. Yehuda Hiss, former head of Israel’s Abu Kabir forensic institute, admitted in an interview (made public in 2009) that organs — corneas, skin, heart valves — were stolen from Palestinians without consent during the 1990s.

This wasn’t the act of rogue individuals — the Israeli military confirmed it happened. And though they claim the practice ended in 2000, how do we undo the horror? Palestinians were dehumanized, stripped of dignity, and mutilated. This happened. It’s real. It’s documented. And we must never forget it.

Medical Experiments on Prisoners: Human Lives as Guinea Pigs

In 1997, Israeli Knesset Member Dedi Zucker revealed that Israel’s Ministry of Health approved medical experiments on Palestinian prisoners. At least 1,000 detainees — many held without trial — were subjected to tests.

Let me be blunt: non-consensual medical experimentation is a war crime. Calling it \”therapeutic\” doesn’t change the fact that prisoners in cages cannot freely consent. These were human beings, exploited by a state that saw them as tools — not lives. It is a stain on humanity, and the silence surrounding it is complicit.

Gaza: Israel’s Live Testing Ground for Weapons

I cannot erase the images from my mind — children burned alive, bodies torn apart, families erased. Gaza has become more than a war zone. It is a laboratory of death, where Israel has tested weapons like white phosphorus and Dense Inert Metal Explosives (DIME) in crowded civilian neighborhoods.

This is not speculation. Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch confirmed it. These weapons were used in 2008-2009, 2014, and 2021, leaving devastation in their wake. This isn’t collateral damage — this is calculated, systematic cruelty inflicted on the world’s most vulnerable.

Sources: Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch

Israel’s Contempt for International Law

The International Criminal Court (ICC) is investigating Israeli war crimes in Palestinian territories, from medical abuse to the use of banned weapons. But Israel rejects the ICC’s authority, refusing to answer for its crimes, mocking international law and the concept of justice.

Under the Geneva Conventions, forced medical testing and disproportionate attacks on civilians are war crimes. Israel’s pattern is undeniable — Palestinians are treated as disposable, their pain as irrelevant, their lives as bargaining chips.

Why This Matters: The Genocide of Innocence

These are not random events — they are the result of systemic abuse and genocide, targeting children, prisoners, and civilians. Palestinian children are dying — not just from bombs — but from the world’s apathy.

I cannot and will not and have not been silent, nor will I ever. I ask you all to join me and other agencies around the world to stop this, and to protect Palestinians from any further abuse and torture. To force Israel to open the crossings to allow aid into a population of over 2 million and nearly 600,000 of those are children. Children that, rather than play in parks or go to school, are being starved, bombed, tortured, imprisoned, and kidnapped by the Israeli military. Prosecuted in military courts with no legal defense and no real charges. I refuse to be indifferent. I and we should stand and call for:

  • Immediate, independent investigations into these atrocities.
  • Relentless global pressure on Israel to end apartheid and face justice.
  • Real, sustained support for Palestinian victims — especially children — through aid, legal action, and global solidarity.

Palestinian lives are not experiments. Their bodies are not battlegrounds. Their suffering cannot be ignored any longer. We owe them our voices, our outrage, and our unwavering commitment to justice.

From Homes to Rubble: Gaza’s Endless Displacement

Yasmina's Photo

Heart Icon Displacement is More Than Loss: A Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza

Displacement is not just the loss of homes or schools—it is the shattering of childhood itself. For millions of children, the horror of war doesn’t end when the bombs stop or when they flee to so-called safe zones. The devastation lingers—etched into their hearts, their minds, and their futures. What we witness today in Gaza is not simply “conflict.” It is genocide, marked by starvation, humiliation, torture, and the physical and emotional destruction of a people. Children lose not only their homes—but their parents, siblings, limbs, and even the will to live. Children are being kidnapped in the streets by illegal settlers, blindfolded, and their fate unknown being dragged away in regular cars or Israeli military jeeps.

🚨 News from the Ground: Gaza’s Opposite Ends in Chaos

We’ve been in direct contact with residents from Beit Hanoun (North), Beit Lahia (North), Quarara, and Khan Yunis. The situation is deteriorating rapidly. Families are displaced yet again, driven from their homes by bombardments and fear.

  • Khan Yunis residents from inland are now fleeing toward the seaside.
  • Quarara’s people head to al-Mawasi — a designated “safe zone.”
  • Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahia residents are displaced westward, many now in Yarmouk Stadium.

All of this is happening overnight, with no food, no water, no shelter—unless you can pay for it. Tents are being sold at $300. The people of Gaza have reached the maximum level of desperation and they need us now!. Transportation—due to severe fuel shortages—costs $700 via buggy or taxi. Elderly and children are walking, running long distances in the dark, exhausted and terrified. Those with homes still standing—rubble homes—are charging displaced families to sleep in the remains. Desperation and exploitation co-exist in the same breath.

💥 White Phosphorus, Ceasefire Lies, and Starvation as Policy

Just two nights ago, white phosphorus was dropped on Gaza by Israeli forces—a war crime under international law when used in civilian areas. This is not an isolated incident. It’s a consistent pattern of ceasefire violations by Israel. Contrary to claims that Hamas breaks ceasefires, we have been fighting online to expose the truth: Netanyahu and his government repeatedly violate ceasefires, starve Palestinians, and then blame Hamas to justify further aggression. The vicious cycle has to end. We are far more educated now than we have ever been about Palestine, we need action, we need support, we need movement, we need to change.

Yes, that’s the big point. Netanyahu’s government cannot be trusted—they are illegal settlers, and their consistent violations of ceasefire agreements prove it.

📜 Ceasefire Violations: A Historical Record of Deception

  • January 2025 Ceasefire Agreement (Qatar Mediated): Israel delayed prisoner release, blocked all crossings for humanitarian aid, and continued targeted strikes on civilians. (Source)
  • February 2025 Escalations: Israel launched airstrikes, used sniper fire on aid centers, and blocked aid convoys, worsening the humanitarian crisis. (Source)
  • March 2025 Massacres: On March 18, Israel killed 400+ Palestinians in a single day. Netanyahu declared, “This is just the beginning,” and ordered the IDF to attack civilians by full force. (Source)

Throughout these months, Hamas abided by the agreements, while Israel consistently violated every term. Palestinians suffer, while Hamas is scapegoated for Israel’s crimes. This distorted narrative gives cover for genocide.

🧠 A Silent Crisis: The Psychological Devastation

Beyond the rubble lies another crisis—mental health. Children hear the explosions in their sleep. They feel the absence of lost loved ones daily. Their sense of safety, belonging, identity—obliterated. Aid focuses on survival—food, water, shelter—but the emotional trauma is ignored. A fed child who cannot sleep from fear or stares in silence from trauma is not whole.

💔 It’s Time to Face the Truth

Israel is not a victim of ceasefire violations—it is the perpetrator. Netanyahu and his government have weaponized starvation, violated laws, and blamed the resistance for their own crimes. Palestinians, especially children, suffer the consequences—killed, displaced, starved, and left to be forgotten.

💸 What We’re Doing — How You Can Help

The Children’s Future is working across the global to coordinate financial assistance from your door, to theirs as we always do. This money helps families reach safer zones, buy food, water, pays for medication, fees for shelter—survive and so much more. We are asking everyone to step up now, not tomorrow or next week. Why? They are running out of time to survive and we are running out of time to support them. Israel has seen no real action from the global governments to hold them accountable over the past 15 months or the past eight decades and therefore has gotten bolder in its movement to displace and tear apart Palestine. Increasingly they’ve bombed Syria, Lebanon, and other countries with impunity and hiding behind political protection. This is reality.

Rebuilding Bosnia: Together for Hope and Resilience

It’s been a long road for Bosnia and Herzegovina, hasn’t it? We’ve faced challenges that would break many. Yet, here we are—still standing, still hopeful, still determined to rebuild and move forward.

Bosnia Disaster 1

Bosnia is filled with beautiful villages that have been destroyed by floods, but, will be rebuilt again.

The recent floods in October 2024 were devastating. Entire villages were swept away, lives were lost, and many families are still searching for their loved ones since the genocide was executed on our people, especially in Prijedor, in the occupied territory called the serb republic. In moments like these, it’s hard not to feel the weight of it all. But then, you see the way people come together—neighbors helping neighbors, strangers offering shelter, volunteers working around the clock to distribute aid. It reminds you that even in the darkest times, there’s light.

Bosnia is healing, but it’s a slow process. The scars of our past—from the genocide to the years of economic struggle—are still here. You see it in the eyes of the older generation, the ones who remember too much. But you also see something else: resilience. Determination. A fierce belief that tomorrow can be better.

Bosnia Disaster 2

Bosnia is a beautiful and welcoming home for anyone who wishes to pass through it.

Organizations on the ground are doing incredible work to provide shelter, food, and medical care to those affected by the floods. Local NGOs are tirelessly supporting women and children, creating safe spaces, and building programs that foster hope and opportunity. It’s inspiring—but it’s not enough.

The Children’s Foundation has been at the heart of these efforts, working to ensure that no child is left behind. But the truth is, we can’t do this alone. Bosnia needs help. Not just to recover from the floods, but to build a future where disasters don’t push us to the brink, where every child has a chance to dream big, and where families can feel secure knowing they’ll have what they need to survive and thrive.

Bosnia Disaster 3

Our home is your home and we simply wish what all wish for, a chance.

If you’re reading this, you have the power to be part of that change. Maybe it’s a donation to The Children’s Foundation to help us continue our work on the ground. Maybe it’s using your voice to raise awareness about what’s happening here. Maybe it’s reaching out to your own community and asking how you can make a difference. Or maybe it’s all three.

Bosnia, In the Eyes of Her People

“We are the roots that grip the soil, unyielding,
The rivers that flow with whispers of survival.
Our scars may speak of battles fought,
But our eyes carry the fire of tomorrow.”

Through the emerald valleys and beneath the shadow of towering mountains, Bosnia’s people rise—not because life has been easy, but because they have made it beautiful. Their strength is etched into the land, their courage flows like rivers through time.

Bosnia is more than a place; it is a heartbeat, a hymn of resilience sung by those who refuse to let the darkness win. It is in every hand that rebuilds, every voice that remembers, and every soul that hopes for a brighter future.

The Time to Act Is Now

If you’re reading this, you have the power to be part of that change. We’re asking for your support. Maybe it’s a donation to The Children’s Foundation to help us continue our work on the ground. Maybe it’s using your voice to raise awareness about what’s happening here. Maybe it’s reaching out to your own community and asking how you can make a difference. Or maybe it’s all three.

Every bit helps. Every single act of kindness, no matter how small, ripples out in ways you can’t imagine. And it’s not just about Bosnia. It’s about standing together as one humanity, recognizing that when one of us suffers, we all do. And when one of us rises, we all rise.

So here’s to rising. Here’s to believing in a better tomorrow. Here’s to showing the world what Bosnia is made of. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for standing with us. Together, we can—and will—build something beautiful.

All Quiet In Gaza, West Bank on Fire

A Plea for Action

As the founder of the Children’s Foundation, I find myself sitting here with a heavy heart, contemplating what it truly means for a people to endure unimaginable suffering, day after day. The recent ceasefire agreement between Israel and Palestine, which many hoped would bring a semblance of peace, has revealed itself to be little more than a fleeting pause in the ongoing tragedy.

While there is relief that, for now, the bombs have stopped falling over Gaza after fifteen relentless months, the truth remains that the plight of the Palestinian people continues—not just in Gaza but now in the West Bank, where a new wave of destruction has taken hold.

The Suffering Continues

We have all watched, horrified, as reports surface of Israeli settlers emboldened by government policies and under the watchful protection of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and police. They destroy Palestinian homes, torch businesses, and attack families who have already lost so much. The scenes are gut-wrenching: homes set ablaze, livelihoods reduced to ashes, and terrified children clinging to their parents as they wonder if there is any safety left in this world.

To those reading this: We cannot look away. History will judge us by how we respond to this moment. Are we complicit in our silence, or will we rise to say, “Enough”?

The Time to Act Is Now

Raise your voices. Speak out against the crimes being committed in Gaza and the West Bank. Amplify the stories of Palestinian families whose voices are being drowned out by narratives designed to dehumanize them. Pressure your governments to hold Israel accountable for its actions. Demand that international laws be enforced, that justice and human rights be upheld. No change has ever been made without the power of the people working together. We cannot sit idly by and expect the person next to us to do it. We cannot be too busy for humanity.

We need your help now, consider donating to the Children’s Future and other organizations on the ground that are providing food, shelter, and medical care to Palestinian families. Every dollar can make a difference. The Children’s Foundation is committed to channeling resources where they are needed most, ensuring that aid reaches those who need it amidst the chaos and devastation. We are all working together hand in hand to stop this disgrace against humanity.

Gaza Rising: A Community’s Unbreakable Spirit

Celebrating Gaza’s Unyielding Spirit

After 15 long months of unimaginable hardship, the people of Gaza stand victorious—not because of the absence of pain, but because of their undying will to survive. Amid the rubble and destruction, they have built hope; amid unimaginable loss, they have shown us the meaning of true resilience.

“This moment is not just a ceasefire; it is a testament to the human spirit. It is a moment of reflection, gratitude, and determination to honor their endurance.

They expect nothing from us, yet we should expect everything from ourselves—to stand with them, rebuild with them, and ensure that their strength is not forgotten but amplified by our action.” ~ Yasmina Ceric

Today marks the DAWN of a global awakening—a call to action for the rebirth of collective concern and consciousness. We owe everything to Palestine for tearing the veil and exposing the truth: we are mere pawns in the dirty, ruthless machinery of the elite. But now, the tide is turning. To say, “We are all Palestinian,” is to declare solidarity with a universal fight for freedom. The word Palestinian transcends borders—it is a symbol of resilience, resistance, and the unyielding pursuit of justice. It represents the courage to stand against oppression, to demand dignity, and to confront the systems that dehumanize us all.

The struggle of Palestine is not theirs alone; it is ours. Their fight is a beacon, a reminder that freedom is not granted—it is won through unity and unrelenting defiance. Let today be the moment we rise together, reclaim our humanity, and take the decisive steps needed to dismantle oppression wherever it exists.

As Gaza begins the long road to recovery, we have an obligation to make this journey easier. Together, we can turn their endurance into a brighter future, where every child has a chance to dream again.

Take Action for Gaza

The Palestinian people have shown us what it means to endure. Now, it’s our turn to show what it means to care. Every donation, every moment of compassion brings us closer to a future where Gaza’s children can thrive.

Special Prayer for the People of Palestine

اللَّهُمَّ انْصُرْ إِخْوَانَنَا فِي فِلَسْطِين، وَاحْفَظْهُمْ بِحِفْظِكَ، وَرُدَّ عَنْهُمْ كَيْدَ الظَّالِمِينَ، وَاجْعَلْهُمْ صَابِرِينَ مُحْتَسِبِينَ، يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ.

“O Allah, grant victory to our brothers and sisters in Palestine, protect them with Your protection, turn away the oppression of the wrongdoers from them, and make them patient and steadfast in their faith. O Most Merciful of the merciful.”

“Allahu, daj pobjedu našoj braći i sestrama u Palestini, zaštiti ih svojom zaštitom, odvrati tlačenje zlotvora od njih i učini ih strpljivim i postojanim u vjeri. O Najmilostiviji među milostivima.”

A Universal Prayer for All Humanity

اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلِ الْعَالَمَ مَكَانًا لِلرَّحْمَةِ، وَأَبْعِدْ عَنَّا الْفِتَنَ وَالْمَظَالِمَ، وَاجْعَلْنَا سَبَبًا لِلْخَيْرِ، وَوَحِّدْ قُلُوبَنَا فِي طَاعَتِكَ، يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ.

“O Allah, make the world a place of mercy, keep away trials and oppression from us, make us a means of goodness, and unite our hearts in obedience to You. O Lord of all worlds.”

Ceasefire in Gaza: The Beginning of a New Humanitarian Mission

A Turning Point for Gaza

As many of you know by now, the ceasefire deal is coming into action. Palestinians are waiting and counting the minutes. Since the moment that the deal was announced, Israel stepped up attacks and over 100 Palestinians have lost their lives. These lives will never know the relief of not being bombed daily for over 15 months. For those who have survived, the ceasefire in Gaza is not the end of suffering but the beginning of recovery for nearly 2 million people who have endured unimaginable horrors.

The Children’s Future Foundation, in collaboration with amazing donors around the world, is preparing to deliver food, water, medicine, and hope to the people of Gaza. However, significant obstacles remain. We are calling for the removal of restrictions imposed by Israel and the IDF to ensure the swift and safe delivery of aid. This is a global effort to restore dignity, humanity, and life to those who have known only cruelty and despair.

Unveiling the Depth of the Crisis

Over 90% of Gaza’s population is displaced, with families huddling in makeshift shelters amidst the ruins. The United Nations has warned that humanitarian efforts are nearing collapse without immediate aid. Thousands remain missing under rubble, and tens of thousands are starving, surviving on as little as one meal a day.

Winter is here, and the cold, coupled with the rain, adds another layer of urgency to this crisis. Food, clean water, and medical supplies must reach Gaza immediately. Every moment counts, and your help will make a difference.

Echoes of Resilience: The Faces Behind Gaza’s Recovery

The Humanitarian Crisis Unveiled

The ceasefire offers a fleeting reprieve from the relentless violence, but it lays bare the harrowing aftermath of war on Gaza’s civilians. Streets that once teemed with life are now lined with the wreckage of shattered homes, each ruin a testament to unimaginable loss. Families, stripped of everything they once called theirs, huddle together in overcrowded shelters that can barely shield them from the cold or the fear of what might come next.

The most basic human needs—clean water, food, and medical care—have become precious, almost unattainable commodities. Hospitals are overwhelmed, their dwindling supplies and strained staff struggling to tend to the injured and the sick. Over 90% of Gaza’s population is displaced, forced to endure these conditions, their lives uprooted and dreams stolen by the unforgiving tides of war. This is not just survival—it is an existence shadowed by despair, where each moment is a painful reminder of what has been lost and the uncertainty of what lies ahead.

The United Nations warns that humanitarian efforts are nearing collapse without immediate aid. Thousands remain missing under rubble, and families are trapped in a battle for survival. The time for action is now.

Rebuilding waits for no one, they need you now

The Plight of the Wounded

Over 20,000 children in Gaza have been left limbless due to the war, and hospitals, severely damaged and under-resourced, cannot provide adequate care. The World Health Organization reports that Gaza’s healthcare system is at a breaking point, with fewer than 30% of medical personnel still active.

The injured face unimaginable suffering. Every second counts, but without international support, their future remains uncertain. Will you stand with them?

Children: The Forgotten Casualties

Gaza’s children have endured unimaginable horrors. The trauma of war has left lasting scars—both physical and emotional. With schools destroyed and families torn apart, their dreams have been replaced with nightmares.

These children are not just numbers; they are stories waiting for a better ending. Now is the time to rewrite their future by providing the love, education, and hope they so desperately need.

The Call for Global Solidarity

Save Abeer: A Mother’s Sacrifice, A Call for Compassion

Today, I received the worst, most horrific news about my dearest soul-sister, my friend, and my love for the past year, Abeer. She was injured in the head by an Israeli missile.

I fell in love with this human because of all the commonalities we share—it is as if God sent her into my life to be my strength and hope. She says otherwise. She believes I was sent to her to be her beacon of hope. What’s more important is that I fell in love with her children, Shams and Jusuf, who are five years old and one year old. They became part of me—part of my heart, my soul, my blood. I can’t even begin to describe how much I love them; there are no words in any language to fully express it.

Abeer’s resilience shines as she endures unimaginable pain to protect her children.

A Call for Compassion

Hospitals in Gaza are struggling to survive amidst corruption, lack of supplies, and targeted destruction. Abeer desperately needs money for medical treatment, food, and even a tent for shelter. I have been trying to raise money all day, but it feels like no one can hear my call because they’re too busy with their own trivial lives. My heart feels like it will explode with pain, knowing that someone so special to me is suffering so deeply.

Abeer has never blamed an entire group of people for her suffering. She says, “They are all different,” and prays to God to forgive those who have harmed her, even while seeing videos of doctors being buried in mass graves. Her faith and morality are far greater than I could ever hope to achieve. She inspires me daily to be a better person, to be more faithful, and to never give up hope.

For the sake of her children, I hope her head injury heals and that she recovers. But it doesn’t look good. The main road to Gaza’s only functioning hospital has been bombed, leaving no way to access critical care. The Israelis are punishing civilians for what their resistance did on October 7, despite the fact that these civilians didn’t choose this government. It’s as if all Americans were punished for Trump’s policies or Biden’s decisions—children targeted and lives destroyed for political choices they had no hand in making.

These are rhetorical questions; I don’t want your answers. What I need is your compassion, your sympathy—and your help. Please, if you can, donate to help save Abeer or at least ensure her children have a chance at survival. They deserve more than this. They deserve to dream, to laugh, and to grow up without fear.

Help Abeer and Her Children

The warmth of a hug is immeasurable. It brings peace amidst war, erases fear, and restores hope. Abeer, a mother who sacrificed herself to protect her children, represents the resilience of women in Gaza. Her love for Shams and Jusuf reminds us of our shared humanity—the need to care for each other, to rise above indifference, and to act.

Please, help us save Abeer. Let her story of courage and love inspire us to show compassion in the most meaningful way we know: through action. Your donations will help buy her medicine, care for her babies, and rebuild lives devastated by war.
