Request: Support freelancers in Gaza with Project Catalog™

[spacemudd]

Dear fellow colleagues,

We have been witnessing the events unfolding in Gaza, Palestine for the past month.

Many Gazans freelancers are unable to work and have had their life torn apart by being forced to relocate.

This is already hard on the Palestinians as they are they subject to what is known "open-air prison" more than a decade.

What can we do to provide the same support as this (https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/4634800464019) to the people of Palestine?

I wish it would end as soon as possible. Take care of yourself

This is absolutely needed. Upwork management should also provide further support for Gazan. They've lost so much in the last months and this is the least that can be done.
