Help this Venezuelan family to a new life

Donation protected
Hi! My name is Anthony and I am reaching out to you with a heartfelt appeal for a deserving Venezuelan family who desperately needs our help. This family, consisting of loving parents Maria and Christofer and three beautiful children aged between 3 and 6, has recently arrived in the United States seeking a better life and opportunities that were denied to them in their home country.
I first met them in a park near my home when they had just arrived in Washington D.C. The family was sharing a HappyMeal and when I started talking to them, I realized that was all they could afford. I took the family to a proper lunch and listened to their story.
After a long and hard journey from Venezuela, via Peru and into Texas, where they were immediately bussed off to Washington D.C as a part of the political tactic where the Texas Governor for political points decided to bus immigrants to D.C to protest against Biden administration's refugee policies.
They came to D.C without any money, housing or proper paperwork and were left to their destiny.

Life in Venezuela has been marked by political instability, economic hardships, and limited prospects for a secure future. Faced with overwhelming challenges and the uncertain future of their children, this family made the courageous decision to leave everything behind and embark on a journey to the US.

However, the road to a better life is not easy, and this family now finds themselves in a difficult situation. As they await their work permits and other necessary documents from USCIS, they are currently unable to secure employment to meet their basic needs, including rent, food, and other essential expenses.

We are now a small network of individuals that are trying our best to help them as much as we can and are now starting this GoFundMe campaign to rally support and provide the necessary financial aid to help this resilient family during their transition period. Your generous contributions will go directly towards covering their rent, ensuring they have enough food on their table, and helping with other vital living expenses until they can begin working and sustaining themselves.

Additionally, we have been able to secure legal aid free of charge for them to help them with the paperwork, but there are significant fees associated with the USCIS applications required for the parents to work legally in the United States. These fees can be a substantial burden for a family already struggling to make ends meet. Your contributions will also assist in covering these expenses and ensuring their legal status is secure, allowing them to build a stable and prosperous future.

By donating to this cause, you are not only providing immediate relief to this vulnerable family but also helping them lay the foundation for a better life in the US. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a significant impact and demonstrates our collective commitment to compassion and solidarity.

We kindly request your support in making a difference in the lives of this courageous Venezuelan family. Let's show them that they are not alone on this journey, and together, we can help them build a brighter future filled with hope and opportunity.

Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and willingness to help those in need. Your support means the world to us and the Venezuelan family we aim to assist.

Note: All funds raised will be managed and distributed responsibly and transparently to ensure the utmost benefit for this family in need.
