ALT • disabilityvisibilityproject.com We have also been steadfast as we can be—in a disabled way. For over a year, we have sent eSIMs every day, from our bed, from the toilet, in the hospital, while waiting for the bus. With over 160+ volunteers, we have sent over 18,000 eSIMs and kept several thousand active continuously, some for over half a year, totalling more than 41,000 eSIMs and top ups. Thanks to all of your donations, we raised over two million dollars CAD and spent over two million dollars CAD on a rough estimate of 600,000 gigabytes of data, in support of Connecting Humanity and Gazans on the ground.

ALT • disabilityvisibilityproject.com With keeping eSIMs active for this long, and Canadian-US exchange rate at a disadvantage due to, among other reasons, the Trump candidacy, our spending has ballooned while donations have dropped. As a result, we are currently several thousand dollars in the negatives, and need to raise at least $42K CAD to comfortably send new eSIMs to Gazans again. We have been eager to keep all our active eSIMs going, especially users who use 10GB or more a day, knowing one single eSIM can power a whole family or apartment, and knowing how dangerous it is to activate a new one in elevated locations. The genocide in Gaza is far from over, it has — as Bisan Owda and many others point out - simply slowed down. Until the local Internet infrastructure is safely restored, we will keep our eSIMs active and send new ones when we have the funds to do so.
