Palestinian Asylum Seeker: Needs Funding for Legal Fees

Donation protected
A Palestinian asylum seeker needs money to pay his legal fees. There is no right to an attorney in immigration proceedings, so people must find and pay for their own attorneys.

About the asylum seeker:
Mr. _ is from Palestine. He fled to the US because of the violent war in Palestine. Mr. _ is a survivor of torture. But, he is also a son, a brother, and a cousin. His family has lost nearly everything in the war - from close family members to the place he grew up. As such, he has limited access to pay for his legal case.

Mr. _ fled to the United States to seek asylum. He is currently in ICE detention, and his final hearing is soon. Mr. _ came to the US seeking peace. He is fighting for his life right now and needs your help to fund his legal case.

According to the National Immigrant Justice Center, people in immigration detention are 11 times more likely to pursue relief when they have legal counsel and are twice as likely to obtain relief than people in detention without counsel.

*All funds will be used for Mr. _'s legal defense fund. If there are any leftover funds, the remaining money will be given directly to Mr. _.
