What is the right thing to do?
A teenager from Gambia has been reaching me for over a year. To send him money. For food, meds etc. He takes care of his younger 3 siblings and supposedly has lost his parents. He has one time manipulated me into sending him more money after I already sent some. I still do believe that he is doing this in desperation, not to excuse it. And even after that I helped him one other time. Today he reached me again with a picture of his younger sister having a serious burn, asking me to support him to pay for medical care. I have another friend in the Philippines today going homeless. My own friends in Iran not in great shape. I don't have very much info on my own family in Iran. My thinking is in disarray and wondered if anyone here may know of a resource so that he can help himself better. Thanks in advance if anything at all.

@Midori Tengu I am speaking to Iran through my mother and speak to some on WhatsApp. It is what it is as we know. I will mention that to the Philippines dude. As for the Gambia dude. He messaged me on upscrolled some time ago. He told me about his story a bit and I went on video with him to check if he was telling the truth. Im sure I don't know the whole story, but was curious if there's an organisation I can mention to him that he himself may be too young to understand how to find. Because it's not fair to guilt trip me every time his siblings have a health issue. And I wondered if there's an official route for real vulnerable people.

I agree man. How children are treated there is why I was concerned and didn't trust where to turn him to. As for Upscrolled itself, yes it was dodgy and I got off it. There was other people trying to scam me on there regarding Palestine stuff. This boy, however, was using the opportunity to connect to people who were looking at protests and injustice going on in the world, however you look at it, that's what I believe his thinking to have been. Anyway, yes, there is the aspect of calling for money with a sad story every time. And while Im seeing that it's real, I still don't have enough details to do anything substantial. Thank you guys for your replies.

People in Iran are taking action towards this. They are asking how best to do this in a way that is safe and effective. If there has been a video on this that I missed please let me know.
