Help brave asylum seeker & rape survivor feed her family

Donation protected
My name is Olivia, and I am a legal intern raising urgent funds for my client—a brave asylum seeker, rape survivor, and single mother of three. She recently lost access to food stamp benefits and is struggling to afford food. $1, $20, $100... any donation would provide immediate relief. Please consider donating or sharing. Thank you very much ❤️

Her story: In Kenya, I endured my stepmother's daily beatings, teen pregnancy, the father's abandonment of me, and my clan's attempt to force me into female genital mutilation and an arranged marriage. In Brazil, I survived in slums where I was raped at midnight while my children watched, and contracted HIV. We fled to the US, and I was raped again on our journey. I am very sad when I think about what happened to me, but I pray my children can have better lives in America.

Please note: My client's name and photo are excluded for her safety. The cover photo is not her, but is used for illustrative purposes.
