Sponsoring Refugees in the EU

Donation protected

Hello,

My name is L. Hughes  and I have been working as a journalist and photographer covering the horrific realities of war in the Middle East.

After working in the field, I met many broken families struggling to survive while they attempt to escape to safer lands. 

I have recently returned to the EU where many citizens of war ridden countries have risked their lives to establish new lives in a safer context.  Life as a refugee is not easy, and this organisation has the objective of opening the doors to sponsor safer, secure, and fuller lives by supporting them financially to fulfil their needs such as reuniting families, offering emotional support, finding scholarships and funding to further education, as well as language and cultural integration to build a brighter future. 


This organisation began by offering physical and material neccessities to those lacking access to vital supplies in Gaza during the latest war in 2014.  As a year has progressed since its origins, this organisation has developed its needs to helping refugees in more sophisticated ways- not just to survive life but to offer the hope of building better lives in the EU. 

In the event that you would like to do something tangible for the innocent victims of war, I have created an account where you can sponsor a family. 

Before responding, I would like you to acknowledge the following: 

- I fully respect that each person has their own financial commitments and priorities. I understand that you may like to make a donation, but it might not be possible at this time. That is perfectly acceptable and I understand.

- I would also like to apologise if you are contacted more than once for this effort. It is not my intention to pressure nor pester anyone. It may be that you could appear on multiple email lists.

- If you know someone specific who would be interested in helping, please feel free to forward this request to them and help spread the word for this cause. 

- Your donation can remain anonymous, if you like – only I will know who has responded.

- Unfortunately, I cannot issue you a charitable donation tax receipt.

- I will receive approximately 92.1% of any money that is generously donated; the remainder goes to the crowdfunding company.

- I promise to personally acknowledge your contribution by email. I promise to give you a full accounting of how much money was raised and how it was spent.

- It would be wonderful if I reached the "goal amount" listed above; however even a fraction of that amount is greatly appreciated.

With much appreciation and thanks, 

L. Hughes
