Flowers for Palestine event
UPDATE: THE FINAL TOTAL WAS JUST OVER $2,400!!!!!! AMAZING AMAZING. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CAME OUT!!!! I put together a little video of the event, which you can view here: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRw7UMbB/
I made 5 poppy flowers for a fundraising event in Oakland, and they were all purchased! At $25 a pop, we made $125 which will be split towards Middle East Children's Alliance and one of the #PassTheHat funds started by Operation Olive Branch.
Truly so wonderful to see the community come out and support. The organizers put a lot of effort into creating a well-rounded event, and it paid off. The door fee was $5 minimum, and by the time the first hour ended, there was at least $500 brought in! I’ll update this post in the coming days when we get a final dollar amount.

Truly feels like such an honor to have been asked to contribute my art for this event. Obviously I like my own art, but for others to seek it out and appreciate it means the absolute world to me. I’m grateful I was able to participate and raise funds for such an incredibly important cause. Viva Viva Palestina, forever.
