Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - Update from 2026-03-04 at 17:03

0:00Hi, my name is Mira Pataston. I'm an author and I'm an activist and GoFundMe is my go-to platform for fundraising. The first GoFundMe I did was to raise money for a chat book or a collection of poetry and essays and short stories. So we started to go fund me and our goal was 7,000. What I've learned is so special about GoFundMe is that it's a whole collection of people offering anything from like four dollars to four hundred dollars and each time you get a ping that someone donated even if it is just four dollars it's so exciting. So if you have a goal and you get there you can keep making it bigger and bigger and bigger. We did go past our goal. It was amazing. GoFundMe is the world's number one fundraising platform trusted by over 200 million people. Start your GoFundMe today at GoFundMe.com That's GoFundMe.com. GoFundMe.com
