Advice

Hi I don’t use Reddit very often but I’m not sure where else to go with this

I have been donating to a family in Gaza on instagram for the past few weeks
I just graduated high school and I am about to go to college, I have my first job I get paid minimum wage.

I have been boosting and sharing post about Gaza for the past few years, and this year after following an account spreading awareness about Gaza and a man’s situation in Gaza supporting his family of 6.

I get a direct message from him asking if I can donate
I start by sending him 30 for a few days. he asks if I can send more 50 then 90 then he’s say his friend who owns the Cash App account I’ve been sending money won’t accept donations under 100

I don’t have issue sending 100 but it’s every day and increasing in price

Which by the end of the week would be my entire paycheck and a little more

I don’t want him and his family to have to go without food or medicine.

And maybe I’m just not used to spending such large amounts of money at once.

But I am also trying to save for my future and other needs since my parents want me to be more financially independent

I want to do what’s right and support people in Gaza
I don’t want a family in Gaza to do worse off if I stop

I’m feeling lost on where to go, or how to tell him I can’t Donate large amounts every day
