Bring Carlo and Penny home

Donation protected
Hi friends,
My name is Vinny. I have two amazing, brilliant children, Carlo and Penny. I have recently been informed that my children are being wrongfully retained in a foreign country, with no foreseeable possibility of their return in the future. My kids have lived their entire lives in the United States, and were taken from their home under fundamentally false pretenses, in a method that has effectively prevented me from having any influence in their lives.

This situation has been extremely distressing and has completely upended my life. Despite my best efforts, at this point I have no recourse but to pursue a complicated and extremely costly legal process simultaneously in both the US and a foreign legal system in order to protect my children, my rights as their father, and our collective future as a family.

I will use these funds to support the provision of legal counsel and any required travel to and from the country where my children are being retained.

I anticipate a very hard road ahead with no guarantee of success. I appreciate your kindness, and am eternally grateful for your friendship and support in this most difficult time.
