#plus I was even starting to see palestinian families' tiktoks asking for help

no cause we can shit talk tiktok all we want but oh my god what creators are doing with Operation Olive Branch is living in my head.

A creator by the name of Erin Hattamer started doing a "pass the hat" thing where content creators can fill out a form and they'll be assigned a Palestinian family's go fund me and their entire job is to keep posting about that family until they meet the money goal.

and I have seen so many goals being met???

And like at first Erin was reaching out to major content creators to try to get people on board, but after those first couple she got so many people willing to continuously help and "adopt" more families after they reach the goal.

And on top of that her and a lot of creators are donating all their tiktok earnings, and taking donations on their venmos to then send to gofundmes (some people can't afford the five dollar minimum) and those doing that are genuinely showing proof of where that money is going.

And it is so fucking wholesome and it's made it a lot easier to manage than looking at a spreadsheet and getting decision paralysis. Now I can just boost videos I see and donate where I can

#palestine #operation olive branch #tiktok #tiktok being so fucking wholesome oh my god #if you have a tiktok I recommend going to her page and finding the video where she tagged the creators she was intially working with and #just going down the rabbit hole #after interacting with her page my fyp was flooded with creators doing this pass the hat thing #plus I was even starting to see palestinian families' tiktoks asking for help #its amazing to see families meeting their goals which is another great aspect to what Erin is doing.
