🕰️ 7 Hours to Sponsor as Many Orphaned Children in Gaza as We Can! Winner gets $15,000 prize for the children!
We are at 1,310 orphans sponsored. We need to push harder to win these resources for the children.
🚨 THE FINAL SPRINT: 7 Hours on the Clock
Family,
We are now down to our last 7 hours of this 24-hour sprint. The clock is unforgiving, and we have work to do.
As of right now, 1,310 orphaned children in Gaza are sponsored through our campaign with Human Concern International.
That’s 1,310 kids whose lives for the next five years will be measurably different because somebody, somewhere, decided not to look away.

What Is At Stake Right Now?
LaunchGood set this up as a high-stakes 24-hour challenge:
The charity that sponsors the most orphans in this window receives an extra $15,000 for their project.
I want you to understand that this isn’t a game. That $15,000 represents pallets of food, warm winter clothes, and medical supplies for children living in tents. I want that money going straight into this long-term orphan program we’re building. We cannot leave those resources on the table.
Here is what your sponsorship actually does:
$99/month
A 5-year commitment (through 2029)
100% donation policy
It sounds simple on paper. But for a child who has lost their mother, their father, or both, and is trying to survive in the deadliest place on earth for children, it is everything.
It’s food. It’s shelter. It’s healthcare. It is a promise that they have not been forgotten.
If you can, I’m asking you to step in for at least one child before this day is over.

A Door Open to Everyone
For my Muslim sisters and brothers: This campaign is Zakat-eligible. If you have been holding Zakat or sadaqah, this is one of the clearest, most urgent places you can put it. Our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was an orphan. Our tradition doesn’t just gently suggest we care for orphaned children—it commands it.
For my friends who are not Muslim: You are absolutely a vital part of this. You don’t have to share our faith to share our outrage or our compassion. Your sponsorship is tax-deductible in both the United States and Canada.
At the end of the day, this is about simple human decency: children have lost everything, and we are deciding if we will help carry them.
Whoever you are, whatever your background, if your heart is stirred at all by what’s happening to these kids in Gaza, follow that impulse while you still have time today.

Why I Trust This Infrastructure
I know there is so much noise out there about money, fraud, and charity. I wouldn’t be asking you for this if I wasn’t sure of the basics.
100% of what you give goes directly to Human Concern International (HCI).
I’ve helped move almost $4 million in direct aid for Gaza through HCI so far.
HCI is an established, Canada-registered Muslim charity. Its Executive Director, Mahmuda, is a devout, brilliant Muslim woman I know personally and deeply trust.
I serve as an Ambassador for this work. I do not receive a percentage of the funds raised. I do not have access to the bank accounts for this fundraiser. My role is to connect you to a need and to an organization I believe in. That’s it.
If you’ve been hesitating because of trust, I’m asking you to take me at my word and act in these last hours.

If You Are Already Part of the 1,310
If you are already in that number, I’m grateful for you more than I can say.
In these final 7 hours, you can still change what our final total looks like:
Sponsor one more orphan if you can stretch.
Bump your monthly amount, even modestly.
Share this link with three people—a family chat, a friend who’s been asking “what can I do?”, or your social feed.
Tell them plainly: “If you want to do something concrete for Gaza today, sponsor an orphan through this link.”

Seven hours from now, this 24-hour sprint will be over. The number we end with is the number of children we carry with us into the next five years.
Let’s leave it all on the field for them.
Love and appreciate each of you.
Your friend and brother,
Shaun
For those of us who cannot afford to offer 100 per month to support a child of Gaza.
It would be wonderful if we had a way to make a donation toward those there who are involved!
