Support At-Risk Afghan Families To Safety
Donation protected
We are first-generation Afghan-Americans working tirelessly to bring our extended Afghan families, friends, and others to the United States. The majority of the vulnerable Afghans we are assisting are SIV applicants, whose visa applications are currently being processed. The delayed processing times puts them in extreme danger. The Taliban are persecuting Afghans who have helped the United States during their 20-year long occupation in Afghanistan. These Afghan allies and other vulnerable Afghans are fleeing Afghanistan for their safety and are seeking urgent refuge within the United States.
Currently, the fastest route to securing their safety is through humanitarian parole. Anyone can file for humanitarian parole, and thanks to legal organizations creating walkthroughs on how to assemble these applications, we have managed to assemble over 60 applications. As of now, we need financial help to cover the costs of processing and shipping these documents. Donations here will go toward operational and application costs, such as but not limited to, purchasing passport photos for each applicant, software to manage and edit application documents, expedited shipping fees for the applications (2nd day air UPS), and legal fees as needed. Any additional raised donations past the initial requested amount will be used to offset any costs regarding flights, items needed once families arrive in the states, new applicants, etc.
Thank you for any donation big or small it is so appreciated and will help save the lives of Afghans!
