Two years ago Amal, an American citizen (you may recognize her from Tumblr a while back), was taken overseas to Iraq. Her family secretly booked a one-way ticket; they lied about it being a vacation. They had a house built, and it is just her and her father, who won’t let her go back home. They also coerced her to sign documents in Arabic, which she couldn’t read, that relinquishes all of her money to abusive family members.
She has been contacting the U.S Embassy almost every day for the past year. They make constant excuses as to why they can’t help her. Her family and relatives back home have been fed lies by her controlling father, and refuse to help her. She does not have two more years to wait.
Please help her forego the excruciating, fruitless wait of the Embassy’s dangling promises. What your money will go first and foremost towards:
- plane ticket
- lawyers (possibly both US & Iraqi)
- deposit and rent for housing while she readjusts
- smaller things like groceries, therapy, a bed, transportation costs, clothes, etc
My roommate and I are offering her a place to stay when she gets back to America, but our resources are limited. If all my followers donate ONE SINGLE SOLITARY DOLLAR she would meet her goal. Youcaring is paypal supported. If you have another means of donating, contact me personally.
Thank you all 💖
