Bianca's Immigration Expenses
Donation protected
**UPDATE** Goal Reached! Thank you all! Any additional money raised will go towards paying off Bianca's legal responsibilities to the exploitative lease she signed in desperation for housing last year, where they're holding her responsible for many months beyond her leaving with proper notice, and are continuing to come after her.
---
EVERY DONATION WILL BE MATCHED UP TO THE GOAL!
Help Bianca regain access to healthcare - she needs access to her medication and a working pair of glasses.
Immigration is difficult and expensive, and only getting harder and more vicious - even for temporary status. Bianca Binneman, who came to America from South Africa, has been through much - from Tulane losing paperwork resulting in her being forced to leave the country - to now being back in a masters program in Ohio trying to stay afloat and currently locked out of all physical and mental health resources.
She is legally unable to work in the US outside of college assigned work, which does not pay as much as promised. Under the table odd jobs are not enough to keep up. Currently she has been unable to pay the school $1200 in health insurance backlog, and is cut off from being able to get her medication from her psychiatrist, purchase new glasses as her only pair broke, or see any form of doctor. On top of that, she was taken advantage of by predatory renters where in desperation for affordable housing, she signed an exploitative lease. She's had to leave that situation, but is being held responsible for the entire year of rent beyond the point of her 30 days notice to the landlord and vacating the premises.
I'm raising money to help try to wipe out at least the school health insurance expense, so she can have access to basic resources again. I will be matching every donation up to the goal. All donations will be withdrawn by Bianca, who has been added as a beneficiary on this fundraiser. Anything helps and is much appreciated. Thank you!!! <3
