Help a Venezuelan Family get to safety

Donation protected
My name is Angie / Shimmi

I am attempting to raise money for my family to get to safety here in the US.

A new process was released October 12th for Venezuelans.
It is only accepting 24,000 applicants.
this number will fill quickly, since there are tons of people applying. So we are on a race against the clock.

This is our one chance to reunite the family. It is the only family I have left.

I am looking to raise enough in order to cover their first 6 months of expenses arriving to the US. In 4 to 6 months they will have their work permits and will be able to take off from there.
This goal breakdown includes rent for one home for 5 of them. Electric, gas, internet. About $200 a week for groceries. Plane tickets to get here… And about 3k in legal advice and immigration service fees.

the total Needed is $33,000.

I can maybe make something happen with $20,000. Maybe not help all of them, but at least some of them.

I am able to take care of the rest.
(Clothes, Furniture, rides, Uber money, doctors, application fees, school, etc)
I am only one person and I am doing what I can.
I am asking for help.

Their names are:

Auntie Mercedes (admin and our only mom)
Grisbel (15 and wants to be a plastic surgeon)
Josie speaks English and French.
Edan (33 and does graphic design)
and Yasmin (make up artist).

They all have been running for years.
Auntie is stuck in Chile with the girls, and Edan and Yasmin are still in Venezuela.

Hear my plea.
help me get them to safety.

If 4 thousand people donate $5 we would reach at least the lower end goal.

Together, we can do anything !
